This kit is the swimsuit version of Ritsuka Saeki released as part of the Sōsai Shōjo Teien series. Just like the previous Madoka Yuuki Swimsuit Version & Koyomi Takanashi
Swimsuit Versionreleases, this time we get a swimsuit version of Saeki. It comes with a bikini outfit along with a removable pareo skirt in clear sky blue.

The basic setup is pretty much the same as the previous swimsuit versions — it includes a seated lower body, legs, and three different foot shapes. The articulation and joint strength are solid as usual, and you can pull off a nice variety of expressions and poses with all the option parts. The one thing to watch out for, like with some earlier kits, is that the waist ball joint tends to pop out pretty easily. Once it starts coming loose it keeps happening, so just be mindful of that one spot.

There's nothing particularly new compared to the previous releases, so with this review you can just sit back and take a good look at the overall option lineup and poses. If you're a fan of the Sōsai Shōjo Teien series — especially the swimsuit versions — this is a lovely girl-pla that should be a perfectly enjoyable build. :-)
