Machikado Mazoku is one of my favorite yonkoma published in Manga Time Kirara. It also has a brilliant anime adaptation that makes it even more enjoyable to watch, primarily because of how phenomenally the voice actors did their job (especially Kohara Konomi as the main character). Anyway, I already wrote a review on the adaptation, which you can read here. However, I didn't have a figurine representing any of the heroines so far, so it was about time to get one.

It's hard not to buy a figurine portraying your favorite character from a series, especially when the series itself is held in high regard. In addition, I am used to the quality of Phat! Company products, so I ordered this figure without a second thought.

Minami Natsuno is a character from the game Juusan Kihei Boueiken, known in the west as 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim. As this is one of the greatest titles I've ever played, I can't imagine not having at least one figure with a character from this masterpiece. While I liked all of the characters, Natsuno was the one that stuck out to me the most, and I really liked her, along with her robotic companion BJ, who was also included in the set.

I was a little worried when reading the comments about how her face looks, as a lot of people have complained about that. When I opened the box, I noticed that the design is a bit closer to what the character looks like in the source material of the adaptation (manga) than what style Silverlink and most fanart has adopted.

Another 1/7th scale Kurumi figure has landed in my collection. This time dressed in kimono. As soon as I saw it, I just couldn't resist and it immediately ended up in my shopping basket. The figurine was priced at ¥20000, and the quality of workmanship leaves no doubts that it is worth the price.
