Uuuuuggggghhhhh, darn you money constraints of joblessnesss...
The fig looks like a wonderfully fun buy. If I can't find this after Christmas: I'm going to go with with Strength or a cheap Touhou nendoroid. Note to self: tell family about Amazom gift cards. |

D'aaaawwwwww. I don't buy figures, but that doesn't prevent me from acknowledging that this is extremely adorable. I'll always fall for a lady in a hat.

>> Not a single Bodacious female character. What. |

They may not be "Bodacious", but they are most certainly Mouretsu! |

It's prescriptivist pedantry that I don't normally do, but I'd say that by the original definition of the word, several of the female characters qualify as bodacious. Although I suppose that by the definition that Running Wild has in mind, Misa and perhaps, to our surprise, spoiler[Coorie in episode 24] qualify. Of course, the series doesn't really play to that angle up; it's weird like that. |

So cute! I've given up on buying nendoroids unless its a special edition, but that is really cute. Just waiting for a Grurier nendo to complement this one.
The article mentions that Amazon JP is selling the figure, but they do not ship figures outside of Japan. |

What an adorable figure! It's been a while since I've purchased any figure, but this is definitely one I will consider pre-ordering.

Well, the original novels are titled "Miniskirt Pirates". And there are a lot of pirates in miniskirts. That being said, I would not mind owning this figure. Marika is awesome |

Well, I think I've found my first Nendo purchase.
Hope this means a Figma will follow. Or maybe a Pullip collab. Whatever, bring on the Moretsu merch. |

Marika is bodacious. So is Lynn Lambretta, when it comes down to it, hacking a race course because the original seemed too boring is a fairly bold and audacious move. That is, in the actual meaning of bodacious, as opposed to using it as a euphemism for built like a brick house. |

That's like saying the actual meaning of otaku instead of what it means now.

The word was also chosen as the "translation" of "Mouretsu" by the Japanese. |
