Japanese model manufacturer Max Factory recently announced on their official X account that "Hiroshi Nohara" from the popular anime "Hiroshi Nohara's Lunch Style" will be joining their figma action figure line!
"Hiroshi Nohara's Lunch Style" is an official spin-off manga from the "Crayon Shin-chan" series, which was adapted into a TV anime in 2025 by Shin-Ei Animation. The story follows Hiroshi Nohara's daily quest to find the perfect lunch within his limited allowance and lunch break. Upon its manga debut, due to its loose connection to the original series and distinct art style, fans jokingly dubbed the protagonist an "ordinary person who thinks he's Hiroshi Nohara" or "a mentally unstable individual imagining himself as Hiroshi Nohara." Despite this, it unexpectedly gained a massive following, with the anime adaptation garnering over 500,000 views on Niconico in its first week, sparking significant discussion. Now, this "ordinary salaryman who imagines himself as Hiroshi" is getting the figma treatment, a brand renowned for combining the exquisite sculpting of PVC statues with the high articulation of action figures. Further product details will be announced later, and anticipation is already sky-high!
