Apparently there is an Akikan anime? I never heard of it before a few days ago but from what I hear I didn’t much apparently. I originally had preordered this figure, but it got canceled in the great schism of 2009.  I preordered it based on sheer cute-ness honestly I didn’t care what the figure was from it was just cute and I wanted it but I ended up having to cancel it. I had kind of forgotten about Melon until I happened to see her on sale at  HobbyLinkJapan for only slightly over 2500 yen. I finally decided it was time to get her.

I think it was the mixture of her joyful expression and the colors on this figure that finally did me in. I love how cute her expression is. Green and orange are my favorite colors, both colors are pretty rarely seen on figures so it was nice to see a cute green themed figure.

She’s cute but I wish she could hold her damn can of melon soda, I feel like I am going to lose the thing in a heartbeat.
