Nendoroid Ikuyo Kita Review
Hello everyone! Arashi Bori here! I’m so glad you found my blog! I love to talk about upcoming anime figures and merchandise and share photos of my own collection. Nendoroids are my favorite, but I cover a wide variety of anime related subjects. Plus, I have a YouTube channel too, so feel free to check it out sometime! And thank you so much for tuning in; have fun reading!
Ikuyo Kita’s nendoroid is currently sold out on the Good Smile store, but I still want to write a review for her anyway, since I already covered the rest of the Kessoku band. Those who preordered her should receive her soon, as she’s set to release sometime in the first quarter of 2024. Maybe she will become easily available after she releases. If so, we won’t have to wait much longer!
Aki Hamaji’s Bocchi the Rock! is a slice of life, comedy manga that began in 2017. It received an anime series in 2022, and the story has become immensely popular! Hitori Gotoh is a shy girl who struggles with social interactions, but that won’t stop her dream of becoming a rock star! One day, a girl named Nijika Ijichi invites Gotoh to join her new band. The story follows the Kessoku band, as Gotoh tries to make friends. The character’s last names share the last names of real musicians, with each fictional band sharing last names with members of a real one.
Ikuyo Kita is the vocalist, and aspiring guitarist of the Kessoku band. She is optimistic and kind to everyone but herself. Ikuyo felt like her life was average. But, one day she sees a girl named Ryo Yamada playing on stage, and decided she wanted to get to know her. Ikuyo can’t play any musical instruments, but she lied and joined the band anyway. However, just before she was supposed to play, she confessed that she coudn’’t play guitar and left the band. Bocchi convinced her to rejoin, and now she’s striving to master the guitar!
I’ve got to say, Ikuyo has a brilliant design, doesn’t she? Her nendoroid looks rather friendly. Her nendoroid comes with her teal-colored guitar, and even hand parts with a pick for it! The guitar also has a strap that wraps around her. Ikuyo’s first faceplate is her happy, excited expression.
This is a cute pose for her. I like her smiling faceplate with closed eyes.
Ikuyo comes with her smartphone and its stand! This would be a great piece to have. In the story, she often uploads photos to Instagram.
Ikuyo’s nendoroid includes her phone case as well. I’m a huge fan of her thrilled or ‘kita~n’ faceplate!
Aw, she comes with an arctic prop, so you can recreate her ‘Kita~n’ moments! I think if I got this figure this would be a cool pose to display her in.
Ikuyo Kita is the Kessoku band’s vocalist, so it’s only natural that she’d include her microphone. I think Ryo Yamada’s nendoroid comes with one of these too.
The backdrop board shown here is not included with Ikuyo Kita’s nendoroid. It comes with Nijika Ichiji’s nendoroid instead.
In conclusion to this review, I was impressed with Ikuyo’s nendoroid. I hope that everyone who preordered her will enjoy her when she comes out. If you love Bocchi the Rock! check out the Bocchi the Rock! category on my blog, for more fun posts and reviews!
