[Alter] 1/7 Yoshiko Tsushima

Today we have a 1/7 scale Tsushima Yoshiko figure from Alter!

"Yo-Ha-Ne!"

Okay okay. Yohane.

This figure was out for pre-order in Mid 2019 and I was considering whether or not to get her. I mean, the price...

In the end, I decided to just go for it and... Here she is!

Let me tell you, she doesn't disappoint.

[Good Smile Company] 1/8 Tachibana Kanade Haregi Ver.

Today we have Kanade figure!

Okay okay. I know this figure was released in November last year. And this picture set probably should have come out earlier in January.

"Some may have seen on the 10th of January many Japanese girls in Kimono, not just a Kimono but really gorgeous ones.

This is called Haregi (晴れ着). The literal meaning of Hare is sunny day, also means wonderful day and Gi/Ki means clothes. Why a clothes for sunny day? Imagine, a sunny day has a lot of light and you leave the house with a very nice clothes as if you are going out to the lightened stage. So, Haregi means a Kimono for special occasion; Shougatsu, celebrations such as Seijin no Hi.

Haregi, as it´s for cheering occasions, has lots of bright colour and usually with gorgeous drawings. Also the sleeves are very long which is called Oo-furisode (大振り袖/ big sleeves). If I´m not wrong, only unmarried women can wear Oo-furisode and married women wear the ones with shorter sleeves."

I am your sword

"たとえどんな苦難があろうとも月従います"
No matter the hardship, I will follow you

I saw that scene shared on social media and knew I just had to start watching the series.
Really loved it from the music to the characters.

But I'm not here to talk about that.

I'm here to share with you this superbly gorgeous 1/7 Raphtalia figure from Kotobukiya.

p.s. It's been suuuuuuuper long since I've done any figure photography.
