Digitamin ( manufactured by Megahouse) is going to release the Isayama Yomi ( 諫山黄泉 ) 1/8 PVC figure from the manga/anime “Ga-rei” ( 喰霊 ). Will be released in October 2009. Around 200mm tall, 6,648 yen. Digitamin ( でじたみん ) exclusive.

“Will you kill someone you love, because of love?” Here comes the Isayama Yomi and Tsuchimiya Kagura figure from Megahouse! As you can see, they are Digitamin exclusive. Which means for those (e.g. me) who live outside of Japan are out of luck.
But I guess this exclusive thing is ok for me this time. Somehow for some reasons Megahouse messed Yomi’s face. I think her eyes are too big and her mouth is kinda off. Since I don’t want this weird face Yomi, there is no reason for me to get Kagura anymore. I’m really disappointed. I was so looking forward to these two figures before but Megahouse messed it up. =(
***Tsuchimiya Kagura sold separately***

I agree with you GGT. Yomi was such a beautifully dark character. It’s a shame she was portrayed this bad. Toy’s works version is not much better either.
Still waiting for a good reproduction of Yomi…
The face looked kind of weird just looking at the images in my browser, but then I zoomed in. I have to say that the face actually looks pretty decent, especially from the front. I’m saying this after also comparing it with the following character design image image: http://img505.imageshack.us/img505/5949/yomil.jpg
I actually like her face (and pose) much better than Kagura, but then, I’m also a bit biased. As for Yomi being a dark character, this figure is obviously from happy times. Dark Yomi is going to take a ponytail version.
I get what you’re saying about the ponytail, but I was talking about her persona only. In my opinion, Yomi is like Griffith from Berserk or Anakin Skywalker from Star Wars. If you already have the tendency to fall to the dark side, then you were always dark to start with.
I’m a Yomi fan btw.
That´s disappointing indeed. And Kagura seems so adorable, too…what a waste.
