In the Teien neighborhood, Yue is known as the idol Tsukinyon, who both sings and dances. As such, we wanted to give her the same articulation-focused treatment as Kuon Yakushiji. Her design itself was inspired by character art we've previously shown, with some things being tweaked specifically for the model. We also gave her lots of frills and ribbons on her outfit!

Balancing articulation with sculpting. Although the articulation-focused design of Kuon Yakushiji was well-received by fans, we wanted to make sure Yue didn't end up looking robotic. So, we paid special care to designing movable parts so that she could strike cute dance poses. We hope fans will have fun experimenting with the kinds of cute poses she can pull off.

The fact that she's both cute and highly poseable. Unlike Kuon, whose hands were sculpted with battle scenes in mind, Yue's hand parts were designed with dancing in mind, so they have a more expressive look. She features more articulation than Kuon in some areas, with pop-out shoulder joints and a neck that moves forward and backward.
