Manaka Komaki
milky one piece version
by Kotobukiya

  My first anime PVC figure! Actually, my first legit anime figure. Yes, I was a victim of bootlegs. Being new to the whole anime figure collector, I have no idea how to distinguish fakes from the real thing. I know bootlegs exist, I just don't know how to spot them before. And I bought a lot of them. :(
I will probably post some pics of all my bootlegs sometime in the future.
 
I always feel like somebody's watching me...
  Manaka Komaki, the shy class representative from To Heart2 sporting a one piece swimsuit and letting her hair loose. With her trademark blue clip on her right hand and using her left hand to caress her hair. She's glancing on her left with a perturbed look on her face.

  Kotobukiya made a fine figure
of  Manaka here. A one piece
swimsuit with frills on top and
bottom adds a lot more than a
normal one piece, and I'm
thinking the 'milky' description
is the color of her swimsuit.

  What kinda put me off at first
was her eyes. They are huge!
Well, anime eyes are huge for
characters who are moe.
Overtime, I get used to it. Her
pose is unremarkable but
effective. There's just so much
you can do to a kneeling figure.
   
                                                                                                     
                                                                                                                             
                                                                               
Dat cute azz.
   

       But then, a kneeling figure can 'stand' without a base. No need to put peg holes on the figure. You can put her on any flat surface if you ever lose her base. And speaking of  her base...
  It is a large black circle with grainy texture resembling sands on a beach.

  Overall, this is a good figure for those fans of To Heart2 or Manaka Komaki herself. Oh, and this is a 1/7 scale figure.
  A little bigger than the usual 1/8 scale which is a good thing.
 
 

         
A very, very private beach.

'Big, big eyes'

(Wait, that doesn't sound right,,,)
A perv waits in the shadows.
