1/6 Figure Kinako Play With Ver. – My Cat Is a Kawaii Girl (AmiAmi Limited Edition, 21 cm)
Product Description
This is the AmiAmi Limited Edition 1/6 figure Kinako Play With Ver. from the series My Cat Is a Kawaii Girl illustrated by Shimahara-sensei. Standing approximately 21 cm tall, this PVC and ABS statuette features a high-quality finish and a bonus double face.
Kinako wears her oversized pale yellow sweatshirt printed with the word "SANMA" and a fish motif, reflecting her love for sardines! Her long, wavy brown hair, fluffy cat ears, and bushy tail are reproduced with stunning accuracy. She stands on a circular base with a light parquet effect, scattered with toys – a pink wool ball, a green feather, a rubber mouse, and a cardboard box filled with small pretend fish. All these elements reinforce the playful, everyday vibe of the young cat girl.
In addition to her main face, this limited edition includes an alternate face: Kinako holding a fish between her teeth, ready to play or ask for a treat! The delicate hues, the subtle shading on the tights on her legs, and the details of her oversized sweater make the whole look lively and warm. Every angle highlights her playful expression and her feline nature, perfect for personalizing your collection.
Who is Kinako?
Kinako is a calloused cat who, overnight, wakes up transformed into a teenage girl in My Cat Is a Kawaii Girl. Despite her new human appearance, she retains all her feline reflexes: curious, mischievous, and always hungry!
Throughout the series, Kinako discovers the joys and mysteries of high school life: she learns to walk, to talk (despite a few cat-like expressions), and to interact with her friends. Her naive and clumsy side makes her irresistibly endearing – she pounces on her favorite toys, demands petting, and sneaks everywhere like a true feline.
Her sparkling eyes, her often pricked ears, and her tail that swivels according to her mood are constant reminders that she is not quite your average teenager. Kinako retains within her a touching duality: the instinct of a cat and the curiosity of a young girl discovering the human world.
Complete history of the My Cat Is a Kawaii Girl
Created in 2022 by Shimahara-sensei, the My Cat Is a Kawaii Girl series first flourished on Pixiv and Twitter, captivating readers with its colorful strips and humorous vignettes. The plot revolves around the supernatural transformation of Kinako, an alley cat who suddenly becomes a teenager, plunging into a daily life that is both ordinary and wacky.
Genesis and concept – Inspired by Shimahara-sensei's love of felines and slice-of-life stories, the webcomic explores Kinako's little discoveries and clumsiness: learning to use a smartphone, putting on her high school uniform, or simply marveling at a squeaky toy. Each chapter focuses on sharing a moment of tenderness, humor, and absolute kawaii.
Success and publications – Thanks to word of mouth on social media, Shimahara-sensei was able to publish, at the end of 2023, a first paper collection bringing together the most popular boards. The AmiAmi Limited Edition, released in 2025, enriches this volume with an exclusive signed poster and some commentary from the author. It was an immediate success: the volume ranked among the best-selling independent manga, attracting an audience who loved everyday stories with a touch of fantasy.
Derivatives and community – The phenomenon has spawned a range of goodies: stickers, keychains, and even a small amateur OVA broadcast on YouTube, where we can hear Kinako's sweet voice. Fans gather under the hashtag #KawaiiKinako to share their fan art, cosplays, and anecdotes about the series. The ephemeral “Cat Café Kawaii Girl” coffee shops have also sprung up in several major cities, offering fish-shaped cookies and postcards featuring Kinako.
