An intrepid anonymous at 2chan’s mokeiura board posted an image today from what I assume to be the new volume of Maritan Drills that came out over the weekend, announcing plans to produce a Nendoroid action figure based on the Magical Marine Pixel Maritan design! No details beyond the initial planning have been announced, but the foul-mouthed bloodthirsty English profanity-spewing moe mascot character is an ideal candidate for Nendoroidization and I can’t wait to see what they come up with… We’ll keep an eye out for further news. Announcement image below:
Interesting. I didn’t know the Japanese have a foul-mouthed English profanity-spewing manga character.
This might be the first Nendo character I buy then. 8)
Thanks again for highlighting quirky items like these from Japan. 8)
Good thing is Maritan doesn’t require a whole lot of Nendoroidization. Much like the Necoarc Nendoroid.

We’ve been following the development of Maritan as a kind of violent analogue to Moetan for the past several years here at HD; check it out if you get the chance, she’s a fun character.

Agreed, her design is perfect for Nendoroid conversion. Pretty sure I’ll be picking this one up.
As a worshipper of original Bart (before they tone him down), Lisa simpson, and the South Park kids, I’ll be sure to pick this (non)lady up. 8)
