The BISHOUJO series finally reaches its 15th anniversary! For this momentous occasion, Kotobukiya is adding one of the biggest icons of Japanese horror to the HORROR BISHOUJO lineup-Sadako! Shunya Yamashita has once again lent his talent to stylize the delicate expression on this BISHOUJO. To honor the standard expression that fans often see with Japanese ghosts, she can be displayed with long black hair covering her face. To make for an even more luxurious set, yet another replacement part is included that shows a beautiful eye with a seemingly lonely expression peeking out from under her hair. Her iconic white dress utilizes clear parts to recreate the appearance of skin that shows through a thin garment after becoming wet from the water in the well. Her finger and toenails are peeled off from scratching and scrabbling inside the well, making for a painted style that almost seems like a red manicure. The design depicts a scene where Sadako seems to float using her strong psychic powers, hovering above a pile of videotapes.

Sadako Yamamura, a character rooted in Japanese horror lore, is an iconic figure known for her haunting presence in the 'Ring' series. Emerging from a tragic past, Sadako suffered from psychic abilities that set her apart, leading to her untimely demise in a well. Her story begins with her mother, who was a psychic, and Sadako inherits these supernatural abilities. She becomes the central figure of a cursed videotape that dooms anyone who watches it to die within seven days unless they perform a specific ritual. The curse spreads as viewers try to save themselves by making copies of the tape and showing it to others. Her ghostly appearance, characterized by long black hair covering her face and a white dress, has become synonymous with Japanese horror. In this figure, her eerie yet captivating presence is immortalized, allowing fans to bring a piece of this chilling story into their collection.
