TGS07: The Only Reason To Go

I’m kidding. (Mostly.) But Heisei Democracy alerts us to the presence of a 1:1 scale figure of the world’s mistress, Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu’s Haruhi herself, at this year’s Tokyo Game Show. It’s gotta be AWESOME, amirite?!

…Yeah, sorry folks, it looks like ass. Bad-type ass. (And not badass.) Why didn’t they just make a giant version of one of the dozens of excellent Haruhi figures already out there? (Or better yet, this one?)

Okay, I don’t really consider myself a gamer. Frankly, I never have enough money to invest in becoming one. But there’s enough overlap between the anime and gaming worlds that I know that Level 5’s booth being packed while Square Enix’s is near-empty is pretty funny.

That said…Squenix, where are my Kingdom Hearts announcements, bitch?
