I think I finally figured out what it is that makes a Yamashita design/illustration so... “Yamashita.” It's the eyes. They just make you melt and feel like they are looking right at you.

Yak! Deculture! It's Ranka Lee!

Finally a Shana WITH melon Bread! Today we look at the Figma release of Shakugan no SHANA.

It's Volume 2 of the Shunya Yamashita Character Series and I must say Nasca is a cutey.

I take a look at the cute and adorable Ranka Lee(Super Deformed) from Banpresto's prize goods line, Ichiban KUJI Premium Macross Frontier.

Even though she’s supposed to be thin as a stick (she’s 14, what do you expect?), the long legs seem to throw the rest of her off because it makes her seem too thin proportionately everywhere else.

Though anything larger might be made of higher-quality materials and have detail shading painted in, for $15 you get a great deal: a faithful representation of the character for a low price.

Shana Enpatsu is the main female of the manga turned anime Shakugan no Shana and a recent release in the Nendoroid line of super deformed figures by Good Smile. Shana is a tough as nails, no nonsense girl with a dangerous sword and a soft spot for melon bread.

Len Kagamine is one of the newer releases in the Nenodroid line (Super Deformed style) by Good Smile. Who's Len Kagamine? He's the mirror image of Rin Kagamine, why of course!

Rin Kagamine is one of the newer releases in the Nendoroid line (Super Deformed style) by Good Smile. Who's Rin Kagamine? I was wondering that too...
