Two years ago, in the year 2023, I wrote an article about the Assassination Classroom manga getting banned from public school libraries in the states of Florida and Wisconsin. The ban was partly related to the ongoing book bans enacted not only in the state of Florida, but many other states nationwide. It was an unfortunate event that truly exposed the corruption of political elite ideology from both sides.
Now, it seems like things are about to change. For now… According to a recent report from Niche Gamer, an Obama appointed federal judge in Florida by the name of Carlos Mendoza, has overturned a law that was used to ban Assassination Classroom and other famous anime and manga titles by conservative groups. So, what just happened, exactly?
My… Okay… I knew that this Koro-sensei figure was going to look awesome. Still, I honestly didn’t expect it to look THIS amazing. In fact, oh boy… I don’t know if this figure is the best one that I own so far…? This awesome figure is giving my Konomi Yuzuhara figure a run for her money. The detail added makes this figure so remarkable. I mean, look at it! It looks so WELL detailed. I honestly can say it rivals even that of the Assassination Classroom live action movie. Heck, it looks 100% like it’s actual manga and anime design. Wow, ABYstyle Studio… You truly nailed it… I can’t declare yet if this is the best figure yet. I can definitely say that this figure is top tier. I don’t know how ABYstyle Studio managed this, but they did an awesome job with this Koro-sensei figure. Because of this, I am now officially interested in buying more from ABYstyle Studio.
What makes this figure so stunning for me, is the detail. I really like how this figurine from ABYstyle Studio matches Koro-sensei’s detail from the original source material. This includes the manga and, heck, why not the anime adaptation as well? The texture and touch of Koro-sensei feels so great. It psychologically makes you feel like you are touching something valuable. You can feel the high quality of the material on this figurine. Its size and length joined with the detail also make it stunning. Koro-sensei’s blend of its color format that uses yellow, black, and white just makes it look so great. The detail is so highly faithful to its original look that it’s literally impossible to call it a bootleg. Keep in mind, this is officially a licensed figurine from France, and they are by the name of ABYstyle Studio. They have truly done an amazing job making this figurine.
This anime figure made by ABYstyle Studio was released in 2022 based on my research. It’s unfair to say that much time has passed since 2022 was only 2 years ago. Still, I believe that over the years, this figure will age like fine wine. In 10 years since this figure was made, it will still look good and match with the others. If you want a nice looking anime figure with an excellent size, nice texture, and perfect design, choose this figure. It looks exactly like its manga or anime design. IS FOR YOU!!! Now, I will wonder if this anime and manga figure is my favorite of all time. I will have intense debates with myself. I don’t know… All I have got to say is… Careful Konomi… he will take your spot…
Koro-sensei. Welcome to the figure family!!! New member number 25!!!
Phew… It’s been a while since I last did something like this. I know earlier, I said that I was in Hiatus with my busy life. The truth is, I still am. The good news is, with extra time on my hands, I got a little surprise to show all of you. Yes, a newly boxed Koro-sensei figure from ABYstyle Studio. I really can’t wait to open this and see how it looks. All I can say is, it looks STUNNING! This figure will probably be my second favorite in my collection. Konomi Yuzuhara’s figure is the only one I like more. Stay tuned for when I took a full photo shoot of Koro-sensei outside the box.
Controversy over anime in America has been existent for the medium, dating back to the late 1990s with the popularity boom of the Pokemon franchise. This caused controversy for some who thought the Pokemon franchise could cause negative effects for children, ranging from both psychological and religious reasons. Another manga hit, Death Note, causing some major controversy and incidents, with some writing their classmates and school staff’s names on the book. While controversy calmed down later on during the late 2000s and early 2010s, the medium entered the spotlight of controversy once again in the late 2010s, continuing on into the early 2020s. Assassination Classroom’s latest controversy in the country is very much a continuation of controversy.
