I think I have 16 Kotobukiya figures and this is up at the top of my favourite figures they’ve made, I just love everything about it. First off is the pose, sitting/kneeling are my favourite poses for figures so I instantly fell in love with her sitting hugging her sword, the sword itself looks weathered and used.

Next is the wrap that’s on her left leg & right arm has a rough texture to it, having texture on a PVC figure is very rare & just looks excellent here with great paint & shading. Then the decals on her right leg & left arm look equally great.

Next the bead wraps on her arm & waist make the figure stand out even more, then her ripped top stretching across her chest just looks amazing, looks similar to how they did the chest on their beach Asuka, love how they did that.

Lastly her portrait with her yellow/gold eyes are what initially drew me to the figure, they really stand out and look amazing, and then the base is just the finishing touch, when looked at from above is 3 Wolf heads sitting on a field of blood, it looks almost black but when you shine light onto it, it shines red, it looks amazing.

This was the first figure I ever bought where I didn’t know the character, I just loved the figure so much that I had to have her, and I’m so happy with her, you will be too.

Another review here said they found it hard to put in the sword, I found it easy, put the sword into the figure first, then put it into the base.

The quality, the sculpting, the base and the sword are all very nicely done! I like how the bloody parts of the base are transparent. Io also looks very cute and sexy in terms of the pose and the 'details'. However, the only thing I don't like about the figure is that it was a bit difficult to put in the sword
