Wishing happy birthday to one of Oregairu's best girls, Yukino!
In 2015, Kotobukiya released her first regular scale figure and, in my opinion, the standard-bearer. What's more important is that she was released when there was no real representation of her in figure form. Before then, a solitary SEGA Prize figure and 1/10th scale BEACH QUEEN version were all that existed. That said, both are pleasant in their own ways!
Kotobukiya's Yukino was so sought after, that for a long time, she was listed on the aftermarket for over ¥30,000 having been released for ¥9,200! Eventually, Kotobukiya realized her appeal and released her twice afterward. For those who like Yuigahama Yui, you could pose the tow of them together on the same base.
As of writing, the latest figure of Yukino is by Good Smile Company and based on the light novel's sixth volume cover by Ponkan⑧. From her paintwork and sway of her hair and nonchalant expression, she's amazing in so many ways.
So one more time, Happy Birthday Yukinon!
