The 5th Sahra’s a la mode: Meow × Meow a la mode is here!
She's the adorable Calico Yuzuha.
And like the real Calico cat, Yuzuha features the color white along with 2 more colors (gotta love Azone and their attention to the details).
You may recall seeing Yuzuha at Doll Show 50 Early Summer.
Pre-orders begin June 7, 2017.
You can expect her to arrive late - June 2017.
Like the other Sahra’s a la mode girls, Azone has 2 versions of the Meow × Meow a la mode Calico:
- The girl with the Brown hair (left) is the regular release version while
- The girl with Walnut color hair (right) is the Azone Direct Store Exclusive version
I love, love, love Calico Yuzuha's outfit. It's so soft and feminine.
I'm sure there's a name for this style of dress (if you know the name of the style please let me know by leaving a comment in the box below).
I want both outfits.
If only I had that mythical money tree . . . Calico Yuzuha would be all mine.
FYI: this is the first Yuzuhu to have a bob hair style.

06/11/2017 at 1:05 pmOh joy, my wallet finally gets the break it so desperately needed! After seeing the Yuzuha versions, although I think they’re adorable, to me they look a little out of place with the rest of the collection. I felt the same way about the Maya dolls too based on their outfits and did not purchase either of them. So far the Sahra, Alisa and Lycee dolls I have received are looking pretty darn cute together! ;D

06/13/2017 at 12:52 amHi Sandra,
It’s good when the wallet gets a break . . . but with Azone the break doesn’t last very long 😉
I’m anxious to see what Azone will reveal next since the Sahra’s a la mode Meow x Meow series is over.
Congrats on the lovely Meow x Meow collection.
Sahra, Alisa and Lycee sound like cuteness overload!
Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts on Sahra’s a la mode: Meow × Meow a la mode Calico Yuzuha.
Tatyana 🙂

06/08/2017 at 3:52 pmThey are absolutely beautiful!!! I am new to Azone Dolls and I love them. I can’t wait to decide and to get my first dolly. I want to ask something. I am not very sure. Is a doll relased every month? Or how it works? A new doll will come out in July or August?
Thx
AllAboutTheDolls says
06/09/2017 at 3:34 amHi Mara,
Yes, Azone releases dolls every month.
It just depends on which series you’re interested in.
They have a variety of doll lines like Sahra’s a la mode, EX-Cute, and Lil’ Fairy just to name a few.
Each doll line has a number of characters (dolls). And each line has a theme.
The number of characters from a line will generally determine how many months the series will run.
For example, the doll line Sarhra a la mode has 5 characters (Sahra, Maya, Alisa, Lycee, Yuzuha).
This year the theme was Meow x Meow a la mode.
The theme began in February 2017 and will end June 2017.
Azone released a new girl every month for 5 months.
Another example is the EX-Cute line of dolls which has 19 characters.
Their Fairytale series began in June 2015 and continued until 2017.
At times it can get a bit overwhelming keeping up with each release but once you get use to the pattern it’s exciting to be a part of 🙂
I hope this gives you a better idea of how Azone’s releases work.
If you have more questions or concerns please feel free to leave a comment or contact us directly.
Tatyana
P.S. We can’t wait for you to get your first Azone doll. We’d love to see photos and share in your excitement.
Mara says
06/09/2017 at 8:01 amThank you for the answer! It helps. I saw all the lines and I am interested in Sahra’s a la mode and ex cute. They are so little and cute. I think I will end up getting Maya Peridot. She is my fav by now and still avabile in some online shops. My B-day is a perfect opportunity for an adorable azone doll. 🙂

06/12/2017 at 1:25 amHello Mara,
Maya will make a wonderful birthday present 🙂 She’s so adorable with her cute little bob.
Do keep us posted on how your 1st Azone experience goes.
And if you have any following questions we’re here to help.
Have a wonderful day,
Tatyana

05/27/2017 at 4:30 pmWhy does the better one is the exclusive;_;? Also, why they’re still on the outdated body><?!
AllAboutTheDolls says
05/28/2017 at 10:04 pmHi Anonym,
I’m always curious on how Azone decides which girl to make exclusive.
It can’t be as simple as a coin flip can it?
There’s got to be a method to their madness.
The anticipation is building for the newer Pureneemo bodies.
August will be here before we know it 😉
Thanks for taking the time to chat with us about Sahra’s a la mode: Meow × Meow a la mode Calico Yuzuha.

05/29/2017 at 6:40 amHey Tatyana,
I think Azone always chose the more vibrant/brighter color doll with the full smile/mouth as their exclusive.
By the way, seeing this year Sahra’s a la mode line, I think Azone should totally do collaboration with Sylvanian Families*-*. Momoko sold few times dolls that come with Monchichi, so why not Azone do simliar thing? It would be neat.
AllAboutTheDolls says
06/02/2017 at 1:52 amHi Anonym,
I think your on to something there about the exclusives.
I will certainly pay more attention to differences in the future.
I’m not familiar with the Sylvanian Families series.
But I did a quick search and I remember seeing a few of them at Barnes & Nobles once. They were called Calico Critters 🙂
It’s probably a lot easier for Momoko and Monchichi to work together since they are under the same branch of Sekiguchi.
But who knows what the future will hold.

05/26/2017 at 1:33 pmHey!
I’m getting Lycee for my first Azone – she’s just perfect with that outfit. I AM eyeing Yuzuha as well. Her dress is just gorgeous. My main issue is, I think she doesn’t really fit in with the rest of the lineup. All of the other girls have a sort of comfy, “casual” feel when it comes to the outfits. Yuzuha stands out it that case, and that drops her from my “must have” list (I would kind of want her to look good with Lycee).
Though if she is by chance available somewhere in July, I will try to grab her probably.
AllAboutTheDolls says
05/28/2017 at 10:11 pmHello Orsi,
Welcome to the exciting world of Azone dolls!
Lycee is an excellent choice. She’s lovely.
Thank you for allowing us to share in your exciting news.
Orsi, we thought the same thing as you.
Yuzuha is beautiful but “doesn’t really fit in with the rest of the lineup”
I wonder why Azone decided to give her a more dressy look?
When your Lycee arrives, do come back and let us know how you feel about your first Azone doll.
It was a pleasure talking with you about Sahra’s a la mode: Meow × Meow a la mode Calico Yuzuha.
Come back anytime,
Tatyana
Orsi says
06/02/2017 at 4:07 pmHello Tayana,
Thank you for the welcome! I am now waiting anxiously for Lycee to arrive. I will be happy to share my impressions when I get her finally.
I have no idea why this is how Yuzuha looks. Some of the other girls have more “dressy” dresses, but it is balanced with the rest of the outfit (like Lycee’s hooded parka). Maybe her bolero is supposed to be the balancing element, but the colours are too uniform (funny, since she’s calico), so she looks formal.
Thank you for the answer, it was really nice talking to you!

05/26/2017 at 4:23 amHi!
June hasn’t begin that I’m already complaining about the quantity of dolls released this mounth! XD Too much too much and too much! I will try to get both versions of Yuzuha because she is damn too cute! ≥ . ≤ If I’m correct she wears some sailor lolita outfit because the collar is typical of the one on a sailor uniform… And it’s look like a lot what I’ve seen on Google XD
AllAboutTheDolls says
05/28/2017 at 10:17 pmHi Anne-Sophie,
Oh, I can see the sailor uniform influence.
Thanks for telling me about the sailor Lolita style.
I agree, the dolls just keep on coming.
I hope you’re able to get both Yuzuha. They’re too cute!
Oh, the fun you will have 🙂
Always a pleasure chatting with you,
Tatyana
