Misako

Face-up artist(s):

Comissioned by previous owner but not sure who

Date of acquisition:

March 2018

Provenance:

Purchased on DOA marketplace. She's had at least 2 owners before me, maybe more

Reason for choice:

I got her older sister (Volks Nana) a few weeks before and decided that I needed more Volks dolls. Specifically I wanted one that was tiny enough to travel with since I'll be going to LA soon and possibly Tokyo within the next year. I browsed through secondhand yo-sds on the marketplace until I found one that was affordable and cute.

Best Points:

I really like her little wings! I wasn't specifically looking for a doll with wings but glad I got them! Also she fits in literally every yosd outfit I've found for her to date.

Worst Points:

Her hip joints are a bit wonky so her leg position when she's sitting makes her a bit tippy. She stands like a rock though which is nice.

Eyes:

whatever came with her

Wig:

She has black wigs in 3 styles so far, all from the Wish app.

Favourite colours:

black, read, pink, blue

Fashion style(s):

She really likes her penguin costume! Other than that anything cute.

Name story:

I teach English online to Japanese students. For one of my lessons, I teach a mother and daughter together. The daughter really likes my dolls and asks me every time we have a lesson if I have any new ones and what their names are. I showed her Misako and said she didn't have a name yet, but that she was Mizuki's sister and she immediately said "Oh, you should name her Misako then!" and it stuck.

Character age:

Based on her height relative to Mizuki, she's probably only 4 or 5 years old.

Character gender:

Female

Offsite roleplay:

This doll's character is not available for offsite roleplay.

She's Mizuki's little sister. She's obsessed with penguins and likes traveling. I've made her a case so she can come with me when I go places, and I'm planning on getting lots of fun pictures with her.
