Kick back and relax with this Kirino gallery

Kousaka Kirino has to be one of my favorite characters from a show I've never actually managed to see (or a manga I've never managed to read, for that matter). Despite all this, something about her just hits all the right chords with me, and I can't help finding her absolutely charming.

That goes just as true for this upcoming figure from Wave, who manages yet again to remember there are other things out there besides bikinis and beach accessories. Our original pre-order coverage pretty much said exactly the things I want to about this release, but I can't help repeating it.

I love how her pose is relaxed and natural, while managing to be rather unique at the same time. Her smile and blush are nothing but "d'aww"-inducing, and I can never say no to a nice pair of knee socks! If you haven't been sucked in already, let this gallery change your mind. Everyone else--why haven't you pre-ordered already? Go, go!
