Toybox REVIEW: Figma Kuroneko
Despite it's incredibly divisive ending, I will freely admit that I got far too emotionally invested in the second season of Ore no Imōto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai (aka Oreimo ), particularly during the Kyosuke/Kuroneko relationship episodes. Yes I totally ship them, and regret absolutely nothing. As a result Kuroneko ended up shooting up my "favourite anime characters" list and tracking down one of her Figma became required. So here we have a release of the standard Kuroneko Figma, numbered 101 in the main series and released back in July 2011. Usually I'm one to praise box design, but Kuroneko's is one that doesn't sit with me very every. Its a standard Figma box so there's not much to say in terms of layout (window front, picture on spine, back features poses etc.) but the colour scheme just seems horribly off. For a gloomy goth lolita, patchwork pinks and purples just seem a little too girly. It does fit in better with the other Orei...
