You're talking about yourself or something? It's common sense already that people shouldn't be posting in interest that doesn't interest them, and it's pretty much living under the rock by now if someone didn't realize that Sonico has always been the model for fanservice. If her name being mentioned, then don't be upset that she's being caught up in a situation like in the article.


Yes, because 'Please don't rape me' face is all in good, harmless fun. What a prude. /s

This is a NSFW figure has a figure that wouldn't go well with that office's sales figure.

i gotta wonder what it is lately with these weird poses where they look less like cheesecake and more like someone just kind of shoved her into the desk and she fell over it.

Hasn't that exploitative, submissive look been popular in Japan for decades though?

i should probably clarify that by "lately" i mean with this particular character as opposed to in general. tsuji santa usually uses actual pin-upesque poses with her but lately it's been stuff like this. shrug emoji.

Ah, I see. Maybe he's just following what will make him the most money right now. (And having been in collectors circles now and then, I can say that I'd be surprised if this doesn't turn a profit. Most cases of highly merchandisable franchises do whenever they release a very small amount of a piece of merchandise that's very large and absurdly priced.)

Sonico is super cute and so is this figure. I wonder if they are going to try to make multiple or is it just a one off thing? Either way I'm sure it'll be pricey for being "life size".
