Japanese brand Bandai Namco Filmworks has launched a new scale figure toy brand, "VIVIgnette". The first wave of products features the two heroines from 《BURN THE WITCH》: "Ninel Spangcole" and "Noel Niihashi"!
The work 《BURN THE WITCH》 was created by the renowned manga artist Tite Kubo, known for serializing 《BLEACH》. It first appeared as a one-shot in the 33rd issue of "Weekly Shonen Jump!" in 2018, with a serialization announced to begin in 2020. The first season of the serialization has concluded, and a second season is already planned. The story primarily describes an "Inner London" in London, UK, where monsters called "Dragons" appear. The protagonists, Ninel and her junior Noel, are members of the "Whistle Team" within "WIND BIND," the dragon protection and management agency. The story unfolds from their assignments.
Noel Niihashi (新橋のえる, also translated as "Noeru") is the junior of protagonist Ninel Spangcole. She has long, flowing hair and is a cool-headed beauty with an excellent figure. In "Outer London," she is a second-year high school student and childhood friends with the dragon-possessed "Balgo." Ninel often calls her "Niha" (ニーハ, a Japanese abbreviation of Niihashi "にいはし").
This VIVIgnette Noel Niihashi figure materializes her appearance from the original work in 1/6 scale. Noel Niihashi is depicted in her favorite uniform, holding a magical device and casting a spell in a cool pose. In addition to the dynamic flow of her clothes and hair, the magic spell effects are rendered with clear parts. Other details, such as the thigh holster and pleated skirt, are all exquisitely crafted.
