✽ The Anime & Manga Club! ✽

I am late to the party but here is my small anime figurine collection! (Literally. I like to collect miniature figurines. I am a sucker for anything in chibi form.)
I am missing a few because a few years ago when I moved to where I am currently living some of my figures got damaged in the move and/or broke

I also apologize for the poor lighting my room does not get sunlight.

Spoiler: my anime figures

My first two are Sylphynford Tachibana and Nana Ebina from Umaru Chan.
These two are my least favorite because 1: Nana looks very constipated and 2: I had a bad experience buying these at the anime convention I was at. I am a women, and on top of that I was dressed in a full Himekaji coord so the vendor thought I was young and stupid and a women and kept trying to sell it to me at a higher price. I had to wait for my one guy friend I went to the con with to show up and walk around with me before the vendor would sell me them at a fair price. I am still very salty about this.

I then have my 2 nendroids, Yostuba and Osomatsu. This is going to be an unpopular opinion but I actually HATE nendorids. These break SO easily (the prop in my Osomatsu's hand broke while moving and my other parts for these nendroids are ALWAYS breaking and being lost everywhere).
Never the less, I think they are discontinued but there are some nendorids of other anime characters I would buy if I ever came across them (Specifically Mafumafu and Itaru Chigasaki)

For these being like 50 bucks on average? I am genuinely shocked by how poor quality nendroids are???

These are all of the Sailor Moon figurines I could find. I am missing at least 3 or 4??? (My tuxedo mask figurine died moving, I have sailor saturn somewhere, and sailor mini moon, and I think I have a second Usagi). I was really into collecting sailor moon merch in highschool because it was my first anime ever and a big part of my life.

I also realized while embedding this photo that i've had the bottom part of my right sailor mercury's stand upside down for the past 13-ish years

I then have my misc figures. There's of Mary from Kagepro (I use to cosplay Mary and I regret not buying the Seto figure to go with her),Hatsune Miku, A very lonley Kuroko from Kuroko no Basket, Kou (?) from Diabolik Lovers (I have Reiji and Subaru somewhere but they're lost and tbh can stay lost. I wish I had Azusa's though. Also don't judge me for owning these they are 10-11 years old ), And a pink Natsume from Natsume's book of friends.

If I find any of my other figurines I will try to post them, but once again a lot of them broke or got lost in my moves...

omg, the expression on Osomatsu's face

ngl, I hate nenoroids too, but I would buy that one in a heartbeat

Kuroko's looking very cute there

This legitimately sucks.
screw that guy for ruining that experience, esp bc the figures there are so cute
I hope he had a bad day
Having to put up with misogynists during irl interactions in fandom spaces shouldn't be a thing
Why can't everyone just be welcoming that you also like the thing that they like

I'm sorry you've had some rough experiences with figurines. I like your Sailor Moon figurines, Miku, Kuroko and Kou (I ain't gonna judge you lol, I still like some of the Diabolik Lovers content).

The Osomatsu nendorid was a christmas present from my oldest sibling many many years ago. I am eternally grateful for it
The face is actually blank and you paste stickers on it to change his facials expressions but I think I lost the other stickers and they also kept ripping? (because they are just clear stickers).

I love my little Kuroko. I kinda regret not buying another figurine so he has a friend but I guess Natsume can keep him company?

That anime convention was honestly the worst convention I went to in my life and is the first and last con I will ever go to in Texas.

Since I am born and raised on the east coast I've only ever been to east coast cons before this and have always had an awesome experience. I don't mean to stereotype, but this was my first time going to a con in Texas and the level of misogyny I faced with all the vendors was ridiculous. My goal shopping at the convention was to get an amibo for my oldest sibling that they really wanted for Christmas. There was several amibo booths, but literally as I stood there all of the guys asking about them got quoted $40-50 while I got looked dead in the face and was quoted $100-120. (I ended up leaving with no amibo.) When I was walking around with my guy friend a lot of vendors would also ignore me and only talk to him or answer to him when I asked a question. I hated it. It was hell. I've never been to another anime convention since.

I'm sorry you've had some rough experiences with figurines. I like your Sailor Moon figurines, Miku, Kuroko and Kou (I ain't gonna judge you lol, I still like some of the Diabolik Lovers content).

Looking back at Diabolik Lovers as an adult some of the stuff going on in that game is beyond messed up (I am looking at you Reiji and Kanato )

Shu is ok and Azusa is on list of #1 anime best boys. He's the one singular green flag in the game (or at least the closest thing to one).

Oh, I always thought its messed up qualities were pretty upfront. I think red flags can be fun as long as it is fictional, though, so I don't mind.

TIL that fire force has an Indian-English dub. I guess I know what language I'll be rewatching the show in next!
