Tokyo Otaku Mode.
Re:Zero's Rem has already inspired her fair share of figures. Still, she's preparing to get another, which is in turn inspired by a previous piece of art. The new Rem figure is based on the character's image from an ukiyo-e print that shipped in June.
Instead of her usual maid outfit, Rem wears a kimono for the figure. The figure costs 17,064 yen (about US$150), and it is slated to ship in February. Good Smile Company is accepting pre-orders until August 16.
The franchise's less popular character Emilia is also getting her own chance to shine as a figure. This time, Emilia will appear as a teacher.
The figure is inspired by an illustration of Emilia from a Re:Zero guidebook. Emilia pairs a white coat with a black dress in a chic bodycon look. The figure costs 13,986 yen (about US$130), and it is slated to ship in November. Good Smile Company's pre-order period already closed on August 1.
