Ahh, Idolm@ster. With still no sign of any international release, fans will have to take solace in the occasional PVC release that shows up now and again. Most recently, Wave has managed to break free from the Beach Queen mold to bring us this version of Miura Azusa, featuring her shorter hair and costume from her split-off group Ryūgū Komachi.
Fortunately, for those like me, Wave's seen fit to include her older, longer hairstyle as well, which I find a big improvement--surprising no one. She's quite cute in either form, however, and makes me continue to pine for an English release no matter how much Namco refuses to want my money.
That done, pre-orders are open now, and she'll be available this September for ¥7,800 should you choose to hop on the bandwagon.
