@shimaruhisame.bsky.socialGetting randomly warm this weekend for #FigureFriday but I'm still sharing the cozy nerd girls this season.
This one is of Katsushika Hokusai from Fate/Grand Order in a get up that I can only describe as "University Art Student."
@shimaruhisame.bsky.socialContinuing my nerd theme for #FigureFriday.
I have a shelf with figures that have a glasses, books or just a smart theme.
This one is Ooyodo from Kantai Collection. Has a gacha game Naval officer look.
@shimaruhisame.bsky.socialIt's going to rain today on #FigureFriday (late again).
Although delaying turned into having the perfect figure for a rainy day. This one is Man Sui from The Hungry Lamb, which is a Chinese visual novel on Steam and Switch.
It is apparently DARK though. Not horror, more human dark.

@shimaruhisame.bsky.socialIt's going to be a rainy day today for #FigureFriday.
Since it's getting colder, time for some of my more cozily dressed figures. This week is Yuki Nagato from The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya in her sweater uniform. Should be a throwback.
Yes I was a Yuki person.
@shimaruhisame.bsky.socialLittle late for #FigureFriday.
We've entered the cozy months, so have a cozy figure of
Sagisawa Fumika from THE iDOLM@STER. Sometimes I like a character enough from fan art and their vibe, I end up getting a figure of them.
