To Love Ru Figures

Two yummy 1/8 scale figures out this September by Alpha Omega - LaLa and Konjiki No Yami.
Both will retail for 6,615 yen.
Been waiting for a decent figure of LaLa in her school outfit - love that waistline.
The animation quality of the current run of To Love Ru is terrible at times but I still watch it. Anybody dropped this or is watching?

Am still watching To Love Ru but only watching it at night... LOL

Yeah, the animation quality could be better but it's not bad enough for me to drop this series. So I continue to watch. :)
Will put the Yami-chan figure on my preoder list as soon as I see her listed in the shop I usually buy from.

Dropped it after episode 3. Got bored of the quality.. but might consider buying metamo Lala...

As long as it makes me laugh (which it just does fine) i will watch it regardless of the quality, then again i have the habbit to finish everything i start... sooner or later. ;)
Not to mention clumsy guys like Rito are just funny to watch too.

Yami-chan figure looks just amazing! definitely a must get.
And since there is no proper figures of Eve from Black Cat (love this character), well, it like killing two birds with one stone ^^
Not convinced by Lala though. I have a preference for GoodSmile one for now.

still prefer GSC's version of Lala, but that Yami chan's figure looks delicious... XD
i'm still following the anime, but the quality has dropped significantly these last few episodes... i found myself fast forwarding the latest episode. might drop it soon since i've been following the manga all the while, and it doesn't look like there will be any anime exclusive content.

Still watching To Love Ru and will probably finish the series. Been loads of fun. :)
The Lala figure's color looks dull to me especially if you compare it to Shueisha's Haruna. Can't really decide if I want it since I have already ordered GSC's Lala.
Yami looks good. I will probably pre order her. But again, I am hoping to see GSC's Yami prototype soon so that I can do a comparision before deciding which one to go with.

Episode 7 was totally crap.
The intoduction of new characters is always a mess in this anime.
But I still like To love Ru.

Still watching Toraburu, it's a pretty decent one, thanks to Lala-chan.
Those figures looks pretty awesome, though the face on Lala doesn't match up to good with the rest.

Do Want Yami-chan...
Student
Hmm I've not seen figures by Alpha Omega before I think, those pics do look nice though. Is the quality of their figures overall generally good?
I haven't dropped ToLoveRu yet, but it's pretty low on my priority list for watching. My two favourite characters (Yami-chan and Kotegawa) haven't shown up yet though, so I've gotta atleast stick around til they do :p and by then I'll probably have watched so much that I'll just finish it for completeness sake..

I think Alpha Omega = Alter, that's why the quality is pretty good. =]

I believe Alpha Omega stands by itself, although one or some of the designers IS from Alter. So yeah, your actually half right

Dropped the series after ep 1, but seeing the figures I might pick it up again :D. And Yami looks yummy, maybe she get on my buy list.

Yami is good for looking at on a lazy day.
Haven't started on TLR yet. Maybe, but I think I should wait for my laptop to arrive first. Definitely not watching this on a shared computer >_<

I'm rather let down by the "To Love Ru" anime sadly, the animation is quite poor indeed and somehow the ecchi/comedy mix from the manga isn't translated well, the fun yet naughty atmosphere of the manga is lost.

I am having no problem with the series. I new it wasn't going to be perfect like the manga is. I still enjoy th anime and I am highly thinking of getting the Golden Darkness figure. XD

Wow, that Yami is yummi. Don't know the figure maker but this looks like good stuff. Haven't started watching To love Ru yet; only downing the torrents. I'll check it when it's finished

Alpha x Omega figures is a collaboration between Alter and Megahouse. So far figures from them have been of good quality.
Student
I have watched all the episodes so far and I plan to keep watching them. I agree that the quality could/should be better but that doesn't keep me from getting a good laugh. I wish the anime would stick to the manga. The figures look great, especially Yami.

I'll probably pre-order Yami-chan because she is my favorite To Love Ru character. The only downside is waiting for a USA release date of October 30th (according to KNC). Its going to be a long five months! I am going to stick with the TLR anime till the end even though its not as enjoyable as the manga. I have to at least wait for Yami-chan's appearance.

I never see this character before but I love the figure with the purple hair Lala is her name?

Maybe it's just me but I love the OP for To-Love-Ru.
Student
I like the OP, and the ED too. Very nice Lala service in both ^^

If the quality is enough for you to quit watching an Anime series, I really hope you didn't watch any anime from the 80s or 90s, cause compared to the animation we get today, it was terrible. =]
I'm still watching, quality may not be top notch, but it makes me laugh and that is all that is important to me. If I get entertainment from a show then I watch it, if I don't, then I won't.

...Animation quality's just a bonus for me - I tend to focus on storyline and characters. I'm also really stubborn, so unless it's puke-worthy horrible I'll stick with a series until the end. Even if it bores me to death. ><
...Haven't watched To-Love Ru yet actually. Been waiting for most of the series to come out before chain-watching at once. Is the animation that bad?

Wow, I love the movement that is in Lala's figurine! Her hair is all wavy, and the skirt is flipped up like she's jumping, it's adorable~!

Both are great looking figures right now in proto form, but I'll wait until some just out of box shots show up before making a purchase.

I've stopped watching To Love Ru because I felt at that time that the show is becoming like Kanokon..
But hey, my bad.. Will continue watching the show again since the show is getting more interesting from what I read from other blogs..

Yami-chan looks great, sitting there munching taiyaki.
But the placement of the taiyaki bag behind her seems rather odd. She's eating with her right hand, and yet the bag is to her left. How is she gonna twist around to reach for the next taiyaki?

must get this lala figure...she looks better in her school uniform than her funky costume

I still watch it but the quality is really terrible at times. I don't keep up with it as much though but I do get around to watching it.
That figure on the other hand is quite good looking. Gonna have to think twice before getting it though. My wallet is complaning already. lol
Watcher
Wow I like the hair and face detail on these figures. I better start watching To Love Ru!

I'm currently watching To LoveRU and have no plans of dropping it.
I did notice the quality isn't up to par with most anime being released now-a-days, but it doesn't bother me. I'm picky with the art/drawing style, but not picky with animation quality to the point I will refuse to watch something because of it. If it's enjoyable, I don't care about quality. I will, however, not watch or read something if the characters are horribly drawn. >>; (A lot of yaoi stuff comes to mind.. squared bodies, flat chins/poke your eye out chins, humungous hands..)
I'm not sure who Yami is yet, but I do like her figure(s). I like Lala's, I'm guessing it's the Good Smile version as people have been mentioning, other figure with her in her Deviluke outfit. Would totally think of picking up Yami. Love her outfit.

Lala and Yami look great and if I could I would be pre ordering both of them. The anime is absolutely hilarious. Some people thought episode 7 was bad but I laughed the whole time. I thought the Rocky and Karate Kid parodies were hysterical.

I like the Yami figure! But what is it she's sitting on?...

I thought it was a scaled down water tower, or some sort of tower thing that is normally ontop of a building. But I'm really not sure. <<;

It is a scaled down version of the smoke pipes/chimney that they have on Public Baths.

Anime version of To Love-Ru is such a huge disappointment (similar to animated Rosario+Vampire). I know that long manga series are not the best material for a TV series but on the other hand animated One Piece or Naruto prove that IT IS possible. And what do we get in To Love-Ru anime ? 13 friggin' episodes for a 12 volumes of manga, this is pathetic... The quality of animation is poor, the story is poor too and deviates very strong from manga plotline. I really don't know why I'm watching it, the only reasonable explanation it that deep inside I'm a masochist...

I like the detail on Yami, interesting prop too. Probably not my kind of series to watch though, especially since even fans of the series are complaining about the anime ^^;;

Got both pre-ordered :) I'm a bigger fan of Yami's figure in general. But I'm a huge sucker for long pink hair and LaLa's hair looks GREAT! Plus I don't like the outfit she is in in the GSC one.
