On Octopuses
Take a look at this first!

Looks like a girl, but looks just as much like an octopus.

Konnichiwa! Gabasu desu!!
This cute little something is an item scheduled to be released from Good Smile Company in November.
And they are not called "Good Smile" Company for nothing, right?

Her name is Character Charm Collection: Tako Luka (Smile).

That thing dangling below her is what is called "Takotsubo" in Japanese, or an octopus pot, a kind of a trap to catch the eight-legged invertebrates.

Caution: The item is not edible.


Comes in 3 different versions, 3 different colors of Takotsubo and 3 different facial expressions.

Tako Luka (Smile)
Tako Luka (roar of laughter)
Tako Luka (Drool Face)

Very good strategy by Good Smile.
I mean, how can one resist the urge to buy all three versions?



Shown below are some examples of how you can display the Tako Luka.

A crash course in Japanese.
"Tako" is an homophone that can refer to either octopus, callus or kite.
The same sound that can mean something that is under water, on your foot or in the sky.
Very versatile, isn't it?


Sayonara!
