About this Figure
Cooperation between Aniplex and Wing that already worked on other figures of this character like her bride and wedding versions that were both sculpted by “Fortunation“, the artist credited for this kimono version as well.
I had high hopes for this figure since the announcement and I’m not disappointed even though Aniplex has proven to be able to make more complex and detailed kimonos like the recent Asuna / Undine Version (here) and Mash in her Grand New Year version (here).
Some details like the bunny pattern on her dress and the little hair clip are definitely appreciated and I really like her pose as well. Overall it’s a really good figure and an excellent addition to any Aobuta collection.
“Our favorite Bunny Girl Senpai is out of the bunny suit and dressed in a beautiful kimono seen elegantly blowing in the wind and adorned with a charming bunny motif. It seems Mai has added flowers to her signature hairpiece and she is ready to meet that special someone for a New Year visit to the shrine!
Based on character designer Satomi Tamura’s special illustration and beautifully brought to life in this 1/7 scale figure, Mai’s flowing black hair and delicate smile is sure to warm anybody’s heart!”
