The Japanese seem to love making moe-characters out of anything, and so they did for the anime series Arpeggio of Blue Steel: Ars Nova where the hostile force has AI of their battleships recreated in physical form called Mental Models. Takao here is one of the first our protagonist happens to fight, and also the AI I come to like the most in the series. I didn’t exactly think that I needed to buy a figure of her, but seeing this one I spontaneously pre-ordered it even though I haven’t heard of the manufacturer Q Ques before.

Opened up a new figure today and had some fun buying and eating- I mean, using donuts and Cheerios for a photoshoot of Oshino Shinobu from the never ending series of Bakemonogatari.
I give you these few photos of her for now cause I’ll be writing a short review about her as well. Check out the review of this re-release of Shinobu within a week!
