Otaku’s Hideout

Yes, you’re right. It’s yet another Kanu figure. This time it’s from Kurushima, in cold cast form. This Kanu comes in very battle-torn outfit with only a half of her school uniform top and a panty with lots of holes. -.-” Except for the face, I should say she is quite well made. I like her body curves the most, especially the waist. The face leaves much to ponder whether sculptors nowadays are able to capture the true facial look of the characters. This one seems very “off” indeed.

This figure is 1/6 scale and so she stands at 26cm. She will have a whopping 20k yen price tag due to the material used.

Disclaimer: This figure had not been released, nor do I own her.

I have a strong feeling Alter will be gunning for the entire Ikkitousen series.. I was still thinking whether to get Alter’s Kanu.. Now having seen Choun, I feel collecting the whole set is a must. This Choun looks somewhat different from other Chouns from other makers. This one seems more “cool”. And she does not share the fate of all other Ikkitousen figures in the market now, which must have at least one part of the clothes torn. -.-” She has her eyes closed which is a minor minus for me.. since I like my figures to have pretty eyes

She shall stand at 21cm tall and retail at 6800 yen.
