Two swords and delicious thighs, that’s what Akatsuki Mishiro is about, the 1st figure in Shuraki series by Good Smile Company and Red Entertainment. I managed to get her on the restock at Hobbysearch, and here’s some pictures to celebrate her re-release. Chose to shoot with the cherry blossoms as it’s close to Chinese New Year.

Edit: Happy Chinese New Year!

Akatsuki Mishiro-san stands at about 17cm tall and wields two katanas wearing her seifuku uniform. Her red katana is named: 黄泉乃夢; the blue one: 蒼乃癒鬼 – anyone know the translation for these names? Her flying hair braids (someone called them helicopter hair ^^) and fluttering skirt improves airtime for Ms. Akatsuki. Enjoyed taking her with the cherry blossoms very much. I got them from my mum. She laughed at me when I was taking Mishiro with her cherry blossoms.^^

Akatsuki comes with the standard nice box, Drama CD (2 discs) and illustration booklet. All for a measly 4000 yen. I remember someone commenting that the 1st box was relatively cheap in thought that it would attract prospective hobbyists, and those who bought Mishiro would be caught up in acquiring the rest of the Shuraki series.

I love those thighs. I have no idea why Meiki Igarashi and Zenko decided to put a knee high sock on one leg and thigh highs on the other, but heck I love those thighs.

There’s a lot of things that can be pointed out for Mishiro. Her wildly flying braids are definitely moe material, and so are her zettai ryouki. I probably would like to point out her dragon and fantastic base design. All combined, it makes for one very good pose.

She looks vulnerable without her clothes on. NSFW and obsession-with-Mishiro’s-thighs pictures next.

Oops looks like I didn’t fit in her arm properly >.<

Enough naked pictures. Onwards with the battle damaged costume. She’s a lot and much much easier to disassemble and put back together compared with Char. Customary panty shot below as well.

Koshimizu Ami voices Akatsuki Mishiro, and sings a single for the Drama CD. She’s (Amisuke) one of my favourite seiyuu, so I’ll probably open up the CD sometime soon to listen to what Amisuke has to offer. Did I forget to mention? Amisuke is doing a spectacular job as Horo in Spice and Wolf. Again, don’t mind those fingers!

I rate Akatsuki Mishiro as another recommended figure to get. Good Smile has started and is continuing a very momentous run of their Shuraki series. So far, the design, sculpting and paintjob effort has been consistently excellent. She’s still available at Hobby Search as of the moment, priced at a mouth-watering deal of just 4343 yen, which is so far, the most worthwhile deal out of the Shuraki series.

A short take with Char:

And a final batch of pictures before I finish this post:
