What do figures have that manga and anime don't? (Meaning: I bought a figure♪)

Figures~~~~~?????
Ah, everyone wants to collect them, right? Why?


I want to punch my past self, that cheeky, cynical jerk.

Figures are absolutely amazing!!!!

I finally understand their appeal!!!

What's so good about them? They're three-dimensional.

I'll say it again,they are three-dimensional!!!

What this means is

no matter how much you read the original work,

no matter how much you experience the movement and voices in the anime,

no matter how much you confirm their existence as living human beings in live-action,

in the end, it's all a two-dimensional event.

But look at this.

With a figure, the character exists right in front of you, and you can adore them from any 360-degree angle.

You can touch them.

You can... hold... their hands......... *thud*.

This is what's known as a "prize figure," but my impression is that it's incredibly well-made for such a low price!?

I looked it up and it seems there are top-tier items made by craftsmen that cost around 30,000 yen each, but as a beginner, I'm perfectly satisfied with this one, which trades online for around 1,000 yen.

Lieutenant Tsurumi, you're arching way too much!

You're going to hurt your back!

Wow. I didn't realize bayonets had such a long reach. The impression is different when you see it in person compared to seeing it in a drawing.
Still, it's a cool pose.
Sugimoto is leaning so far forward that he'd fall over if he were bumped even slightly. What balance.

I noticed it when I lined them up.
Second Lieutenant Koito, your face is so small!! Your legs are so long! You have such a great figure!!! It makes perfect sense now why everyone keeps calling you a "young nobleman."

Let's take a look at everyone's hands, too.

Huh... so his hands are this big...

Ah, just as I imagined, they're bony...

Hmm... oh... hehehe... uhehehehehe...

Information gained from a completely different vector than before!!


So good, so good, so good—!!!!

I'm so incredibly excited, I'm in a state of Maiharu Iwaiki right now.

Maiji Iwaiki was sitting seiza-style, chuckling to himself for a while.

He suddenly realized.

...I wonder what kind of look my daughter is giving me.

Please, I'm begging you, don't tell your teachers or friends at preschool.
