Moegi

Face-up artist(s):

Visuadoll/WOW Factory

Date of acquisition:

December 2020

Provenance:

Purchased new via Mandarake; Mandarake is Visuadoll's international dealer

Reason for choice:

I love her tareme eyes, and the Blanc version with the blind eyes and open mouth faceup is adorably creepy-cute

Best Points:

Cute, light-weight, magnetic feet make her a great model for sewing projects.

Worst Points:

Bad color-matching between soft/hard vinyl parts on the Obitsu body. Some of the joints are flimsy and could be better-engineered.

I love Visuadoll! I never see anyone post about them in the US but they were popular enough in Japan to have an actual TV show that human beings watched on their cable televisions. Look up ドル☆バラ on YouTube if you like Pili puppet dramas, voice actor improv shows, or weird Japanese pop cultural products.

A fun fact about Visuadoll is that their character designer is the same man responsible for Digimon and Tamagochi, which explains why Moegi retains such chaotic energy despite my best efforts to make her look like a Kira Imai character. I'm obsessed with sticking her to vertical surfaces by her magnetic feet.

Eyes:

Moegi Blanc default (16mm acrylic)

Wig:

Volks Dream Choice, milk white

Favourite colours:

white, pale green

Fashion style(s):

shiro lolita

Key fashion accessory:

no shoes!

Being able to stand on her own on a metal plate means that she's the perfect model for sewing. I'm imitating the overall style of her fullset design, which is romantic, girly, and colorless.

Name story:

Sculpt name. Why do I keep doing this...
Moegi means "sprout" or "bud" and I think it's cute.

Offsite roleplay:

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

Some kind of trickster-adjacent nature spirit that deigns to look like a young girl for the Aesthetic.
