old anime news and some other shit.

Well, well my Ikkitousen loving brothers. Vengeance is ours. With an unapologetically perverse new attitude (redesigning a site does that to people), it looks like you guys won’t have to go digging around for uncensored shots of the new Kanu Unchou -LTD DX ver.- figure from Griffon. Yes, that’s right, she’s 130mm tall and 1/7 scale… kneeling. And she’s removing those troublesome bits of shirt. The face is a bit lame, but otherwise, I’d hit that. On the plus side? It’s only 6,825 yen. Just in time for Christmas too, with the December release. So tell your girlfriend to fuck off with the cakes, you want a sex goddess for Christmas. And she ain’t it.

Haha, if anyone actually does the above, please let me have a detailed transcript of the event for my own records. By the way, viewing this post signifies that you realize you are about to see tit and hold me not responsible for any stupidity on your own part. Amen. Oh, and one last time, I was in this podcast. Please do listen.

Well, well, well. It’s one of those random little announcements that comes as a bit of a surprise. Taki Corporation, whom I’ve not heard much from, has just announced a decent looking pair of figures. Are they ground breaking? No, not especially. But they do come decently accessorized, and are offered for a decent price for their sizes. So let’s introduce them really quickly and move along. First up is HMX-17a Ilfa from the ToHeart2 OVA. She’s 250mm tall and comes with a number of “I would totally sleep with you” style alternate outfits. Judging from the outfits and the “this product is recommended for persons over 18″ disclaimer, I’d say naked apron is absolutely in the cards for her.

The other offering is none other than the prolific Kan-U from Ikkitousen. She’s there, boobs and all. Same age warning on this 240mm tall PVC super demon. She’s a bit dark for Kan-U, but hey, she’s large and castoffable enough to forgive such a thing. Face is sort of crap, though.

Both are out in August for 9,240 yen. Hit the jump for a single advert shot of each lady. Yessir.

Have I mentioned 40 times today that I am SOOO into Shiozaki Yuji’s work? They are seriously my favorite reads. Well, a very popular pose of Kan-u is headed for PVC for by way of Wani Books. She’s all white and packing her crescent blade. Just like daddy like. I think the cast looks pretty good, but I would recommend that you give heavy consideration to the e2046 Gathering resin prepaint[NSFW]. That shit is high quality. I mean it. And they added a removable top. Great job on the body too. Still, the PVC looks nice as well. e2046 lists theirs as 1/6 and the PVC is listed as 1/7 scale (240mm), so who knows which it is. PVC could have been recast smaller. The PVC will run you 6,000 yen in July, and you can grab the resin kit from e2046 on June 6th for US$128.25.

Pictures of the white PVC only after the jump. Four of them.
