Ryouko Asakura title=

Today we are going to take a closer look at the Freeing Asakura Bunny and her comrades.

Ryouko Asakura title=

My fave used to be the Haruhi Bunny but its now Ryouko - too nice for words.

Ryouko Asakura title=

Lovely face and a gorgeous set of big round anime eyes.

Ryouko Asakura title=

Paintwork and sculpt can be described as "yum yum."

Ryouko Asakura title=

As shes 1/4 scale and lying down, she will take up quite a bit O space.

Ryouko Asakura title=

Ryouko will be released into the wild tomorrow.

Ryouko Asakura title=

Glossy nail polish.

Ryouko Asakura title=

Love the post of her feet.

Ryouko Asakura title=

"Thighs" in Japanese is "Futo Momo."

Ryouko Asakura title=

Hmmm. Feel like an afternoon snack all of a sudden.

Ryouko Asakura title=

A few more higher resolution pics over at Danny's Corner.

Ryouko Asakura title=

She looks great on the Mac.

Ryouko Asakura title=

One of these in the wallpaper pool.

Ryouko Asakura title=

If you don't have any of the Freeing bunnies then you may want to start with Ryouko.

And we also take a quick look at some of the other Freeing bunnies around the office.

Ryouko Asakura title=

Sweet she is - Kyon's sister.

Ryouko Asakura title=

How many other anime characters you know who don't have a name?

Ryouko Asakura title=

Great for loli fans.

Ryouko Asakura title=

Photos strategically taken to avoid phone calls from Mr Hansen.

Ryouko Asakura title=

The recently released Emiri.

Regarding the join marks - you need to imagine that she fell and cut her legs and that those are scars which will heal over time.

These joins are acceptable to me but I've come across some horrid joins in the past. Do visible joins bother you?

Ryouko Asakura title=

Lovely legs.

Ryouko Asakura title=
Ryouko Asakura title=
Ryouko Asakura title=

Emiri looks great on the Mac too.

Ryouko Asakura title=

Emiri comes with a very plain round white base for her to sit on.

Ryouko Asakura title=

Not as nice as Asakura but still cute.

Ryouko Asakura title=

You can stick her on your display too although her feet do get in the way at times ^^;

Ryouko Asakura title=

And another look at Freeing Haruhi.

Ryouko Asakura title=
Ryouko Asakura title=

Ryouko Asakura title=

Salvaged this from the Good Smile bins a while ago - only the head of Haruhi and body of Mikuru. Not really a fan of the Mikuru one.

Ryouko Asakura title=

But lovely eyes she does have.

Ryouko Asakura title=
Ryouko Asakura title=
Ryouko Asakura title=
Ryouko Asakura title=

Lulu tries to use his Geass to acquire a new pillow. He succeeds for a while...

Ryouko Asakura title=

But quickly ends up like this...

Ryouko Asakura title=

Lulu looking for footage to add to his all time movie.

Ryouko Asakura title=

And the Freeing bunnies get together for a picnic.

    Didn't know there's a Kyon's sister bunny, do not want though, seeing her in a bunny suit seem wrong somehow. ^^; lolol on Lulu, he seems to love eyes.^^
    looks the SOS Dan bunnies are almost complete. no Yuki though, however if they decide to make a Freeing Kyon or Freeing Itsuki Bunny then I'd give up on figure collecting. ^^; btw this reminds me of your old real live Japanese Bunny Girl post: http://www.dannychoo.com/adp/eng/1231/Japanese+Bunny+Girls.html

      What would be funny though would be Kyon or Itsuki in silk pajama pants and smoking jackets with pipes.

    Was very disappointed about final version or Emiri (maybe because of her eyebrow...), so I was a bit affraid of how Ryouko would turn out. And well, I am glad to see that she is as great as first Haruhi and Mikuru.
    Will consider getting her :3

    As soon as I saw Haruhi and Mikuru I felt I should get both, but was unable to aquire either. Then more of these wonderful girls were being produced, so I thought 'I've got to get the set'. However, in the cold light of day, I do not have the room for all of them, but I know that I have to have just one, and that one can only be Ryouko. She is delicious!!

    Ryoko is one of my top fave characters in Haruhi and is the best bunny girl, IMHO.
    Assuming I manage to get her one day, I wonder about the display... >__>;;

    Ha ha. Just voted in the poll and it says 93% Yes and 8% No. Bit of a rounding error?

    Freeing Mikuru will be my first (soon I hope), so long as the re-release doesn't sell out before I have saved the $$$.

    The FREEing Ryoko is one of the best statues out in the last year. Kyon's sister also looks well done but is a little too much for me. Even when I pick up the Ryoko I will most likely have to keep it in the box in the closet just for collecting. The two things I like about this statue is how the top of the cleavage slightly comes off, giving it a natural look and also how the stocking mesh is very well done with the seems in the back also displayed.

    That's one of the few FREEing bunnies I want, I missed out on Emiry, but meh, something about her legs were kinda so-so to me. But this Ryoko is a must get. Bless the bunnies, damn the price! But totally worth it.

    And Asakura's not even my favorite character, Yuki and Tsuruya are, but Yuki's bunny figure looks rather plain and Tsuruya's face on the Freeing bunny is a miss in my personal taste. But indeed, Asakura's figure is really looking quite amazing.

    Asakura's definitely the best out of all of them from a design perspective. That sinuous "s" curve she makes is not only attractive but easily draws your eye around the whole piece. And her attitude! "Yes, I'm sexy, what are you going to do about it?" Baah, too bad I don't have the money or the space for her.

    Must get Emiri and Ryouko ones, wish they weren't so expensive but the quality on the Freeing Bunnies justifies it for me.

    They're all gorgeous, but I think the Ryouko one is overall the best realized one.

    Emiri and Kyon's Imouto are my faves for their cuteness, but if I could only have one Freeing, I'd keep the Haruhi one.

      Also, I agree that this pose is probably the best of all the Freeings so far, but to be fair you should remember that all of the Freeings with the exception of the main girls (Haruhi+Mikuru) are copied entirely from that famous illustration of all the girls dressed as bunny girls http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j298/jmiao/Anime/Haruhi-Bunny.jpg

      Haruhi and Mikuru got their poses changed, maybe because they weren't statuesque enough?
      Betting Yuki's Freeing will also be a new pose as hers seems to be a bit too plain in the picture.

    I think I am the only one in here that like Emiri's figure more than Ryouko. Anyone wants to join me? I got Emiri on last month and she is cute. Apart from her knee joints which I don't really have a problem with, she looks pretty good. Btw, she is the only Freeing bunny I have. Don't like Haruhi, so no order for her, like Mikuru but her bunny pose looks sad, Yuki's pose is so-so, Kyon's sister is too young to wear a bunny suit, so no order, Tsuruya's face looks too fat, no order. At first, I was thinking of pre-ordered Ryouko too when she first available, but when I took a closer look, the part where her hair touching the floor (or table, whatever) doesn't look too natural to me. Also, the pose of her left hand which touching her hip gives me a strange feeling, like she is trying to grab something or maybe her hip is feeling itchy so she is about to use her fingers to scratch it. I don't know about you fellows but that's the way how I feel about Ryouko's figure. So, I ended up didn't order her. Besides, I need to pay the purchase for last month's Freeing Emiri and GSC 1/8 Hatsune Miku and figma Hatsune Miku and also this month's GSC 1/8 Hatsune Miku re-released (Yes, call me crazy, I am getting a second 1/8 Hatsune Miku). So, need to stop the bleeding of my wallet!

    Ryouko is definitely my fav so far and she's turning out to be #@$%&! to acquire. Two different online stores took my order (1st early Sept, the other late Sept) only to email me two weeks later to say that they'd take too many preorders. My last ditch effort is to be on a waiting list for ones that aren't sold to the people who reserved her. >_<

    I wonder why Danny doesn't like the Mikuru one. I just got my first bunny Mikuru today and I say she's awesome. The only tho bunnies I can consider getting are Mikuru and Haruhi. They were seen wearing these lovely suits in the Anime. However, the other girls weren't.

    Ryoko's pose is amazing. However, she's too insignificant a character for me to pay S180 for her... Maybe in the future when the prices have dropped?

    I could use some help finding this figure. I would really like to add her to my collection but I am having a terrible time finding her. Any help/suggestions from anyone here would be greatly appreciated.
