If you like your girls wearing just pantsu and an apron with a i'm-going-to-cut-you-down look on their face weilding a sword then you may be interested in this 1/8 scale figure of Busushima Saeko from the manga High School of the Dead - out next Feb and retail for 7,980 yen by Chara-ani.
More pics including apron-between-eyes at AmiAmi.
Mmmmm. Yoko pai.

    This figure also caught my attention when I visited Amiami just now... I do not know anything about the figure or the series but she looks real good. And the cast-off feature is very nice indeed.

    she's hot - would have been nicer if she had sexier shoes!

    anyway, there's a picture on amiami with her in a different pose - I can't find any seam-lines so it would be interesting to see if she comes with a whole different top half, or if she is being released in two version

    ....or if someone could translate the article, it would be easier! ^^

      Yeah, it does say you can change her pose. Doesn't say anything about how though. My guess is the arms are detachable. Because of the knife straps.

      nah Super Soniko is an Orchid Seed figure based off a character designed by Tsuji Santa of Nitro+.

      Busujima Saeko on the other hand is a Toy'sWorks/CharaAni figure based off a character designed by Inazuma/Satou Daisuke for his manga Highschool of the Dead

      What they do have in common though is that they both have bodies that could send a man to heaven due to blood less fairly quickly :D

    In the illustration she is wearing in house slippers...hmm... somehow that sounds like it'd be a bit sexier lol

    I saw a couple of resin kits of Saeko back in wonderfestival which made me raise an eyebrow, but they weren't quite "must get" material.

    Here's hoping that more will come out.

    I just don't really like her. I'm not familiar with the character but she just doesn't seem "right". Also she fails to compare to Soniko.

      I agree, Soniko looks so much nicer XD
      However, this one's pretty good too, as I don't see anything wierd or unusual that caught my eye. Pose is not that bad either, and add on a katana, purple long hair and apron? Awesomeness!

    hmm... I like Rei Miyamoto with the Springfield M1A1 super match more. My criteria when considering which figures to get is whether I can put it out in the open without being questioned by someone else. Busushima Saeko is cool but its gonna raise some eyebrows if someone sees it. Besides, I'm more of a gun person than into katanas.

    Looks nice! Love her character in "High School Of The Dead".
    Judging by the promo images it does seem like a very nice figure of Saeko though... (you can call me crazy for this) ... I would have prefered her in her skintight shirt, skirt and stockings. Naked apron is very sekushii but she would have looked cooler and more lethal in her other attire.

    Which reminds me I haven't seen any new traductions for the "High School Of The Dead" manga, they need to catch up on it! >_<

    Busujima senpai is a great character and I think the figure is beautiful, but I already pre-ordered the Organic Miyamoto Rei 1/7 figure ^^ (the best till now) that will be out in February, so I hope a figure of Busujima from Organic. Greetings.
