DEMON SLAYER - POP Animation N° 2195 - Shinobu (Sumi-ink)

This vinyl figurine features the graceful and fearsome demon-slayer Shinobu Kocho, the Pillar of the Insect from the hit Japanese anime and literary franchise Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba.

This exclusive figurine is offered as a limited edition, with a restricted and selective distribution network entrusted to specific officialretailers. As proof of its authenticity and rarity on the market, the original packaging of this collector's item features the brand's official ExclusiveSticker on its transparent window, making this model a highly sought-after item for collectors and fans of Koyoharu Gotouge's work.

This top-of-the-range artistic version is distinguished by its exceptional Sumi-Ink graphic treatment. Inspired by the traditional aesthetic of Japanese ink painting, the figurine has been carefully decorated in monochrome(Sumi Deco). Shades of grey and touches of deep black applied with stylised brushstrokes subtly highlight the figure's shading and lines of strength.

The model adopts the graphic and stylistic proportions characteristic of the Funko POP! range, combining an oversized head with a reduced body. The statuette faithfully recreates the lethal elegance of the warrior, dressed in her Pourfendeurs Corps uniform topped by her haori with its moving butterfly wing motif. She is shown standing in solemn pose, her hand delicately resting on the hilt of her unique katana. The figurine adopts a fixed, stable posture for display on a flat surface.

Designed primarily for display on a shelf, on a desk or in a showcase, this collector's item comes in its original cardboard window box packaging, allowing the Pillar to be viewed dust-free.

Shinobu Kocho holds the supreme rank of Pillar of the Insect(Insect Hashira) within the secret organisation of the Demon-Slaying Corps. Distinguished from other fighters by her limited physical strength, which prevents her from cutting off demons' heads, she makes up for this handicap with lightning agility and an absolute mastery of pharmacology. She uses a fine sword designed to inject deadly poisons made from wisteria flowers that she concocts herself. Hiding her deep, dark anger at the massacre of her family and sister Kanae by the demonic moons, Shinobu always wears a serene face, a gentle smile and a calm tone. This Sumi-Ink figurine celebrates the poetic contrast between his apparent gentleness and his implacable fighting technique.
