Zero no Tsukaima - Louise Françoise Le Blanc de la Vallière - 1/8 - Sweet Strawberry Gothic Punk ver. (Alter, Hobby Japan)Louise Françoise Le Blanc de la Vallière · Alter

Alter, in collaboration with Hobby Japan, produced this 1/8 scale PVC figure of Louise Françoise Le Blanc de la Vallière from Zero no Tsukaima in her Sweet Strawberry Gothic Punk version. Sculpted by Otoyama Houjun, the figure stands approximately 195mm tall and retailed at 6,800 JPY. Zero no Tsukaima, also known as The Familiar of Zero, follows Louise, a young noblewoman attending the Tristain Academy of Magic where she is notoriously called "Zero Louise" due to her consistent failure at casting spells properly. When the students summon their familiar spirits, Louise surprisingly summons a human boy from modern-day Japan named Saito Hiraga, binding him as her familiar. The series explores their contentious but deepening relationship across multiple seasons, with Louise's tsundere personality becoming one of the most iconic examples of the archetype in anime. Her pink hair and petite stature contrast sharply with her fiery temper and noble pride. This Gothic Punk version reimagines Louise in a black and white outfit with layered frills, lace-up boots featuring skull details, and stylish ribbons matching her signature pink hair. The figure was released on May 15, 2012, as part of a special collaboration edition through Hobby Japan.
