Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)
The only place I’ve ever been to in the Kyushu region is Miyazaki. I’d really like to try all the famous foods in the area some time!
Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at…
Nendoroid Marika Tachibana!
| From the romantic comedy anime series ‘Nisekoi’ comes a Nendoroid of one of the story’s heroines, Marika Tachibana! She comes with two different smiling expressions, an embarrassed expression and a winking expression!
The important ‘Promise Key’ from the series is also included, and you can enjoy all sorts of your favorite scenes from the series in Nendoroid size – from provocative scenes to her blushing at the main character’s gentle words. |
Oooooooooooohhhh!! ヽ(´ω｀*)ノ
At long last the fourth heroine from the popular ‘Nisekoi’ is joining the Nendoroids! Marika Tachibana, also known as ‘Mari’ is always filled with positive, optimistic energy… which comes out in the Nendoroid beautifully!
Marika certainly has a very special personality, but the part I really want to point out first…
Is this lovely expression!!
A cute smile with her tongue sticking out!
That playful side of her personality when she is making fun of Raku is captured with this expression nicely!
I think I’d be happy with just this expression, but we’re only just getting started! Let’s take a look at what else she comes with!
This is how she looks from the back! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ
The bundles of her hair are quite intricately separated at the back, faithfully keeping to her original design!
Parts of the hair are made from a soft material, making sure they don’t get in the way of posing her shoulders and arms in various ways! Her lovely sailor-type school uniform with a yellow bandana has also been sculpted in lovely detail for fans to enjoy! (｡・д・｡)
The flower in her hair has also been sculpted and painted to look exactly like it did in the series!
The flower even has a slight gradient applied to it to better bring out the flowery appearance! <○><○>
(・∀・) “Let’s take a look at her other expressions and optional parts!”
We’re joined by the figure’s planner, Yassan!
(・∀・) “Along with the expressions you’ve already shown, she also comes with this charming expression!”
An elegant winking face! (/ω＼。)
(・∀・) “If you pose her with your hand up to her mouth like this, it makes it look like she is giggling to bring out a pose that really suits her!”
The smile shows off some confidence, but also has a very cute side to it! ♥︎
By the way, her skirt looks longer compared to the other girls…?
(・∀・) “It is! The sculpting of the creases in the long skirt also make it look a bit like the skirt is wrapping around her legs!”
Even in Nendoroid size things like the length of the skirt are very carefully considered! ♪
(・∀・) “Moving on… expression number three!”
“W-What do you mean?! I don’t…”
She’s so adorable!! (*´Д｀)♡♡
(・∀・) “As with all the previous Nendoroids in the series, she also comes with an embarrassed expression!”
It’s amazing how much of each of their personality’s comes out in the embarrassed expression!
The difference between Mari’s expressions is quite impressive!
They’re all so different, but all so delicious! *nom* (○´ㅂ`○) *nom*
(・∀・) “She also comes with four different expression parts, making it slightly more than most Nendoroids! She is well known to cycle between expressions as a character, so it only seemed fair! Simply pick the expression that shows the side of Marika you like best!”
Wait a second… four different expressions?!
We’ve only seen three! (°Д°；≡°Д°；)
(・∀・) “That’s right! Here is the fourth and final expression… a beaming smile!”
Her smile is so bright and happy!!
From the mischievous face to a winking face… an embarrassed face and now this amazing smile – there are so many sides of Mari that you can recreate in Nendoroid form! I’m sure this last expression is staring right in the direction of Raku! (‘-‘*)(,_,*)(‘-‘*)(,_,*)
But… what is that shiny thing around her neck?
(・∀・) “Marika also comes with the ‘Promise Key’ from the series!”
A completely different shape to the one included with Chitoge!
(・∀・) “Once Marika is released, all four of the main heroines in the series will be available as Nendoroids! With the second season of the anime on the way as well, fans have more than enough to look forward to!”
The girl with many expressions! ♡
