Posted by The Japanese company “Aniplex Inc.” has launched a variety of popular 1/8 scale figures of “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba“, such as “Tanjiro Kamado”, “Nezuko Kamado”, “Inosuke Hashibira”, etc. This time, Aniplex presents a Giyu Tomioka 1/8 Scale Figure again. The overall design and special effects of this figure are eye-catching, let’s take a look!
Giyu Tomioka is the first Hashira to appear in the anime series “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba“. He is a dark-haired young man with a calm and unsmiling personality. His combat style is water breathing.
This figure displayed is also the fighting pose of Giyu Tomioka using the water breathing. It shows that Giyu Tomioka is struggling forward, looking straight ahead with solemn eyes, showing a calm and firm will. He is holding a nichirin blade, lightly wielding a strong and powerful water column special effect.
This “Water Hashira” Giyu Tomioka figure is 1/8 scale, the total height is approx. 215 mm, and its material is ABS&PVC.
Regarding the costume part, the cyan-tinted version of the standard Demon Slayer uniform has been faithfully recreated. The details of the golden buttons and white belt are also depicted well.
The haori with different patterns on the left and right sides that are worn on the outside also have very fine pattern details. This haori also has a special meaning. Giyu Tomioka wore it to commemorate the two most important people in his life: the left half has the same pattern as his deceased friend Sabito‘s haori, and the right half has the same pattern as his late older sister Tsutako Tomioka‘s haori.
The color and details of the Nichirin Blade have also been faithfully recreated. The blade and hilt are all sea blue, and the tsuba is crimson red and hexagon shape. The blade’s body is also carved with the words “Demon Killing”.
Of course, the biggest highlight of this Giyu Tomioka figure is the special effects of this base. A large number of translucent water splash special effect parts are used here to recreate the effect of the ukiyo-e-style water-breathing combat style when it is activated.
Look from the back, Giyu Tomioka‘s white leg-wraps are faithfully recreated.
Besides, it is clever that the figure is connected through the soles of the feet with the water splashes.
On the whole, the action-styling tension of this Giyu Tomioka figure is still very sufficient, coupled with the special effect of water-breathing on the base, the overall dynamic performance and display effect are quite good.
The image of Giyu Tomioka is relatively full, with a cold appearance and a gentle heart. I believe that you guys who have read the comics “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba” are all impressed by him.
There will definitely be a large number of fans to buy this Giyu Tomioka 1/8 scale figure.
