The district of Akihabara in Tokyo has its fair share of adult stores. These stores are intriguing, the higher the floor, the more adult the merchandise. The first floor is basically family friendly Studio Ghibli merchandise. One thing, which struck me was the noise of hardcore porn soundtracks being played on the adult themed floors. I resisted spending any money in these stores. Outside the leaves of the trees were golden. December can feel like autumn in Tokyo. The figurines interested me, though.

The figurines are sculpted in 3D before being produced. I am still upset for not preordering the below figurine based on cosplayer Iiniku Ushijima (うしじまいい肉). Illustrator ERIMO drew up the concept art, and model sculptor Sakurako Iwanaga brought that concept art to life in 3D.
