i am so so so SO excited. she's being released in less than a week!! and a few weeks after that she will be mine!! i think they did a great job with the box is it so adorable… it's just like EXTRA icing on the cake!! ^__^ i don't remember the pink of the base being that bright, but nevertheless i'm still happy about her, and in love with the figure!! ruri-chan is gonna be my first standing-upright scale figure (mayoi and nia are both like… lying around) and i'm actually so excited about it omfg you have no idea…!!
lately, kantai collection (kancolle) has perked my interest. all i know about it is that it's some sort of game where there are cute girls that are like the personifications of various warships or something… i guess i should look into trying to play it, but i bet there aren't any translations or english patches out wahhh!! i THINK i read somewhere that they're getting an anime adaptation soon, so i'm gonna be looking out for that too!! anyways, shimakaze (i'm pretty sure that's her name) has been getting a lot of exposure lately, and she's soooo adorable i'm pretty sure if i played the game i would love her!! she already has a nendo out for preorder (some places are even sold out of her wtf…) and a figma coming up and even a scale!!!

shimakaze-chan is so adorable it's unfair!! the scale is being done by amakuni (i'm not familiar with the company at all) but i'll be looking forward to it! i'm still waiting on the nagisa momoe scale, and for alter to release their shinobu prototype… but who knows when that will happen…
i've been overdosing on anime a little bit the past two days. (excuse: "i'm recharging!!") i finished sword art online, and i'm almost done chihayafuru season 2 (gonna watch the last episode when i wake up tomorrow). chihayafuru is SUCH a gem!! from just the synopsis/description of the anime you might not be expecting much… honestly i don't remember why i picked it up, but i love it to pieces, and i think everyone should give it a try! it's such a heartwarming anime with some really great characters, and i wanna get more people to appreciate it. ^__^ anyways, sword art was pretty good… i didn't even think the second arc was that bad. i don't want to say anything because of spoilers but yeah… i think the whole show was worth the watch. but every time i watch a new anime, it gets me kind of attached to the characters, and then i start to look up merch/figures of them… you see why i'm hesitant to get into new series ugh…
!!! YUI IS MY DAUGHTER!!! i think she was my favorite character to be honest, just because of how fucking CUTE she was!! well, i guess i kind of want the kirito figma (maybe even the nendo…) and i want an asuna figure (even though none of them really speak out to me. asuna was gorgeous as titania and badass af in her blood knight uniform but i'm not 100% satisfied with any of her figures) but check out this piece of work by griffon:

i know right?!?! a 1/1 scale yui… she looks sooo precious and perfect here, but of course i feel a bit wary because i mean… griffon… i'm waiting for more people to post user photos, but there don't seem to be that many up at all on mfc. i guess i'll just put her on my (massive) wishlist and wait for a better time. she would look perfect with the rest of my display though…
lastly, i just wanna talk about something that's kind of exciting!!
i know!! i know right!! medicom (the company that makes the real action heroes series) is coming out with a 1/8th maka scale for their "perfect posing products" line!! wow, i don't think i've ever seen a high quality soul eater figure and this just makes me so happy since it was such a great serious. (not to mention that soul is included in this figure too, but i mean of course he would be!!)

honestly, i don't think i'll be preordering her (i don't know if she'll fit in with the rest of my display…) but i'll definitely be admiring her from afar… maka looks so good here. her pose is excellent, and the detail in the way her clothes are fluttering around are just so perfect, and is just so reminiscent of her fights in the anime!! her eyes are different from how they were depicted in the anime, but i think it turned out pretty well, and her expression is really fitting. i think this figure could have turned out really boring color-scheme wise (i mean her outfit is mostly neutral colors) but something about the pops of red on her skirt, and on her scythe (soul) make the whole thing work. i'm looking forward to this one!! (preorders start on december 24th so keep your eyes peeled!!)
