This Kanu gallery scales new heights

Proving that some things just never go away, Aizu Project is bringing us a new Kanu figure from the infamous Ikkitousen. With so many releases, it stands to reason that they tend to be rather hit or miss, and this one is no different. I'll let you all decide which one this might be, but I think the answer's pretty obvious.

For some reason it seems like Aizu Project's taken a page out of Western figure design, with comic book-esque proportions and lumpy muscles that'd look more at home on some back alley comic shop's shelves. Sadly, I have to say I love her hair, the pose, and the figure's base, but these proportions are just too much to reconcile with.

Anyone else feel any different? If so, she'll be available in May for the not so low price of ¥17,800. Yikes.
