Nendos tend to be the cheapest kind of figure merch you can get. They're usually between $20-$30. It's the shipping you'll be really paying for, though assuming you're like me and live in a country where you've got a stronger rate than the dollar it's easier to import.

Maybe I'm just terrible at predicting anime but Ryuuko is clearly the villain...
The red, the rebel without a cause attitude, the fact her enemies aren't even doing anything objectively "wrong" (as of the latest episode).

What's evil about the student council at this point? They were planning on stopping the crazy lady all along.
Great to know. Seems like the plot is not moving forward?
Also, Why won't they release a Satsuki figma that is not too embarrassing to display?
Ryuko's main enemies are Nui and Ragyo - you know, the people responsible for
killing her father

So I'm thinking all the student council members will be under Ragyou's control because of their Ultima suits or something.

Yeah the council characters haven't had much time to be fleshed out... At least so far.

She's clearly okay with going after whoever is responsible. The fact Nui and Ragyo are evil is inconsequential.
I assume you didn't really pay attention the last few episodes? She was initially driven by revenge, now she just wants to protect innocents. She and Satsuki might share an ultimate goal, but Satsuki is an extremist and willing to sacrifice other people in the process.
Actually I agree. Even Nonon hasn't been that fun to watch since the Naturals Election. It doesn't help that I'm that they're probably all going to job next episode, even Satsuki (just so they make Ragyo and Nui look stronger)
Oh yeah Phat's Satsuki, can't find who originally posted it (it was on MFC)

I hope we get a
Mako figure, but I'll still buy the regular one

well, that's the downside to making a series solely dedicated to big fights all about characters and concepts at the very last second, isn't it? ;/
Nonon has a really nice design, but her character is really disappointing in the show itself. I thought it was pretty interesting when they started to introduce how she and Satsuki were childhood friends, but they went nowhere with that too. Meh. :/
One of the designers (Koyama) on the show made an interesting comment a week or two back about Nonon though. Apparently she's one of the characters who has been designed by pretty much all the designers on the team.
Sushio designed her base character design, the Grave and Presto transformations were designed by Sushio and Yoshinari (Sushio probably did the suit, while Yoshinari designed the mech parts), Amemiya designed her Da Capo transformation, Imaishi did the jersey design, and Koyama designed the current Mk2 transformation.

If anything it's the worst part. It's like all the annoying anime voice stereotypes fused into one. It's ear-breaking....
Of the 17 episodes that have aired thus far (I have only watched up to 15), the only ones that really impressed me were episodes 6 and 7 (Sanageyama and Mohawk-man).
To say the show has been immensely disappointing would be an understatement, at this point. To be fair, it is going in a completely different direction than what I would like (eps 6 & 7). It's a shame that's not what the show is trying to do. It seems to be content with being flashy and not much more.
At this point, I'm just reading the comments in this thread to get a summary of the episode. I feel it's not even worth my time to watch the episode.

Dooooont looooseeee yourrrrrr mooooneeeeeeyy. RIP my wallet. the mako,satsuki and ryuuko nendos are cute. Will get the ryuuko figma also despite the boobs. Would like a saatsookey figma as well.
Nah, it fits the character extremely well. Her actual personality is juxtaposed with her appearance, as she's shown to be an uncouth and tactless individual; particularly when she loses her cool.
....... Said no one ever.
Except I literally just said that, 3 minutes before you made that statement!

So this is also on Hulu now? Interesting, not that I could stomach the commercial breaks though.
I'm with you. If anything it's the material here that's not up to par with Shintani's range, considering how amazing she was as Haruko in FLCL and Tsubasa in Karekano.

Not as good as Ryuko's VA, I just love it. But Nonon's is alright.
I love Nonons voice as well.
I'm on to your lies! I've got my eyes on you bud.
It's way too annoying and nasal for my tastes.

I didn't like her voice at first, but now I find it really fun and it works with the character.

That's what I've been doing, cause I don't want to wait the week to watch it on Crunchyroll.
