There's a gimmick that lowers the hip joint downward and another that opens the front of the skirt,
so for a girl-pla with a skirt, the hip articulation range is surprisingly wide.

Together with Wolf from the previous Sōsai Shōjo Teien release.

This kit is Kuon Yakushiji [Maria Kagaribi Costume], released as part of the Sōsai Shōjo Teien series. She's a brand-new character with an all-new mold — her character setting is that she plays the lead in a tokusatsu show, and the overall vibe comes across as quite dark.

The basic body construction is similar to previous kits, but the default skirt itself has a large, flowing shape. On top of that, the front of the skirt is split in two and opens up wide, which gives this kit noticeably better hip articulation than other girl-pla. The waist and shoulders are also fairly flexible, making it easy to pose, though the thigh joints do tend to pop off during posing. That part is probably worth gluing in place.

One thing that stands out about this kit is that it comes with very few accessories for a Sōsai Shōjo Teien release. Aside from the swappable front hair, there are essentially no accessories, so you're limited to posing the figure on its own. That's a bit of a contrast to previous kits that came packed with things like smartphones and bags. Still, the three-dimensional quality of the long hair is impressive, and the overall style and build quality are solid enough that it doesn't feel like a big loss.

All in all, it's a clean and well-done girlpla with an all-new sculpt. It does lean toward a darker aesthetic, but if the style is your thing, this looks like a kit you'll have a lot of fun with :-)
