SOUSAISHOJOTEIEN Blog: Pre-orders Open for AFTER SCHOOL Ritsuka’s KARAOKE & RECORDING SET!

Hello everyone! This is SOUSAISHOJOTEIEN’s promotions manager.

We’re excited to announce that pre-orders for the latest item in our After School Series, Ritsuka’s KARAOKE & RECORDING SET open on January 13.

We’ve been showing off the sculpt of the kit at events and introducing it a bit on Twitter and during live streams, but today we’d like to show it off on the blog.

The set includes all the karaoke items that are essential (?) for a high school girl’s daily life, as well as authentic recording equipment. On top of that, it also includes two new face parts for Ritsuka!

The girls can be seen here, singing into the mic, livening things up with maracas, and queueing up the next song on the tablet.

*Decals for the screen of the karaoke tablet are included; the design is currently in development.

A tambourine is also included.

(Wow, tambourines in both hands! Impressive…!)

If you look closely at the maracas, you can see that the left and right ones have different expressions on their cute little faces!

With the right posing, you can even create a convincing rock vocal scene like this.

Let her shout as much as she wants!

Here’s the recording equipment; a laptop, mixer, headphones, and tabletop stand with recording mic.

Decals for the laptop’s monitor are included.

We’re going live!　＼ON AIR／

Definitely feeling a radio club vibe!

You often see people working off a tabletop like this in actual radio recording sessions.

The included cables can be inserted into the jacks in the mixer and connected to the laptop, headphones, and microphone.

In addition, the knob and switch of the mixer are molded as separate parts, so they can be turned and repositioned.

Water slide decals for the laptop monitor are also included.

“Today, I’d like to try eating some crystal candy♪ Ok, here we go!”

(munch, munch, munch…)

Madoka might want to do some kind of ASMR show that lets her eat lots of candy!

By the way, the base of the headphone’s ear pads are articulated with ball joints, so they can be adjusted to fit the characters’ heads.

The mic stand also comes in a straight, stand type.

I’m sure many of you have seen voice actors, singers, and pop idols using this type of equipment during recording sessions.

This is getting pretty exciting!

*Product includes “AFTER SCHOOL Ritsuka’s KARAOKE & RECORDING SET” parts only. Other parts/products shown are not included.

Two new facial expression parts are included for Ritsuka.

The “dazzling face” holding the microphone is based on the expression drawn by En Morikura on Ritsuka’s birthday in 2021.

The “sobbing face” is an expression that has not been seen in any of Ritsuka’s previous face parts!

The normally confident, hard-working Ritsuka, who always seems to be in control, is on the verge of tears!

We really like this one since there’s so many ways you can play around with it.

Both expressions come pre-painted and unpainted, and decals are also included.

With the decals you can adjust her line of sight to the left or right.

AFTER SCHOOL Ritsuka’s KARAOKE & RECORDING SET is available for pre-order from Friday, January 13th!
