Movic posted an official page on their site yesterday evening for an Asu no Yoichi figure project. It features characters from the Asu no Yoichi romantic comedy manga by Minamoto Yuu that is currently serialized in Monthly Shounen Champion. Clicking through the splash page to the details provides information on the first two figures in the lineup, Ikaruga Ibuki and Ikaruga Ayame. Ibuki’s sculpt is from Saitou Heel (Love Love Garden), and she’s scheduled for release in August at 5,880 yen and 1/8 scale (19 cm tall). Ayame is sculpted by Tanaka Masanori (Jet Stream) and is scheduled for release in September, also at 5,880 yen and 1/8 scale (19 cm tall). Uncolored prototype images below:


Note that the finished products will be painted and pre-assembled PVC figures. We’ll keep an eye out for further news on the pair as their releases approach.

I’ve seen this manga several times at my local japanese bookstore and it’s caught my interest just mainly due to the cute girls on the cover lol. Wonder how the figures will turn out when they’re painted.
Certainly different stylings from previous outings by Movic – will know better when we see coloured figures.
those guys are both quite good sculptors, but it doesn’t look like these 2 are gonna do anything for me.
Sigh… my standards have fallen to a state where a nicely designed set of seifuku will make me buy the figure.
But I still need to see these painted. Movic’s paint jobs need some work.
