Surprised to see Sazanka getting a figure (and with the Kira! pose), is she popular in Japan?

Destined_Fate · 2012-06-24, 00:43

She's more popular than Amata and Mikono and caters to a certain demographic that the other characters don't. That and she's a flatty, she's gonna get love from some people no matter what because of that.

Whoa, I wish I had all of those! Except for Kagura's, because I don't like his character design very much. I wish they had a Mykage or Zessikage figure. At least this Zessica figurine doesn't look so uncomfortable as one of the earlier ones. It was nicely made and all, but the position of her hips looked too painful. If I put that on my shelf I'd be thinking "ouch...".

I'm surprised there isn't a Yunoha figure. I thought she was one of the stand-out fan favourites of the whole series. Jin not having a figure I can understand better, but still, maybe they're planning those two as a set later?

^ Hey are they going to have all 3 forms of Aquarion Evol sold separately.
Aquarion Evol has 3 different transfermation forms.

bakAnki · 2012-06-30, 09:15

Super Robot Chogokin line lacks of the gattai and form change gimmick like the Soul of Chogokin or DX Chogokin line, but SRC is superior for the articulation and effect part.

Yunoha and Jin look absolutely adorable on that cover.

I hope they sell a figurine of Ancient AQ sometime. That was gorgeous, and it definitely deserves the attention.

I can't help but think that that cover is misleading considering as far as I know Yunoha hasn't even shown up yet in the manga.

Though I loled at the gift post card (?) included in the 2nd volume of the manga.

So they're just putting Yunoha on the cover to sell copies?

Well, assuming the manga gets to the plot involving Jin and Yunoha I'm more than happy with the cover. But I have no idea how much of the anime's plot the manga intends to cover (manga adaptations of anime usually tend to be short, around 2 to 4 volumes. The endings are also usually rushed, though IMO with EVOL that might not be a bad thing =_=).

So then, judging by the cover art, that would mean they're going to introduce Yunoha and do her arc with Jin all in one volume. Not trying to nitpick Evol, God knows I've done that enough, but it seems a bit rushed. Then again like you said, with Evol that probably won't be a bad thing.

Isn't that the light novel? The manga art is different.
