In addition, her feet are way too easily detached. It seems the new body were just made to recreate the cute slouching pose with the knees being hugged (which is hard to do, in fact, due to the lousy arm movement). Seeing the new prototype body in the Doll Show 53, I can’t help but feeling I’ve been used as guinea pig, rather than as customer who got fully tested and finalized product.
As for this doll, Takagi-san, I do follow the manga (haven’t seen the anime yet, I think the story works better as manga) and I’m quite fond of her character and she seems more like the first doll I’ve wanted to purchase (sailor outfit and exchangeable hands, oh yeah!). However, dealing with my first Azone doll, I fear this doll would be the same and suffers from floppy messy prototype body, not to mention, Takagi without her “classmate” Nishikata is a waste (will they make him?). Unless, I see some proofs Azone improve this body stability, the chances I am getting any new Azone dolls scores to zero.
Hey Anonym,
It’s so great to hear from you again!
No worries about commenting.
The wonderful thing about this hobby is that you can always hop back into it anytime.
We are always here to greet you. 🙂
We hope your studies went well and the hard stuff is behind you.
So you can relax and enjoy the many lovely dolly sights.
Oh man your review was very helpful and insightful.
I’m so sorry to hear that the body didn’t meet your expectations.
I felt bad reading your experience, since it was your 1st Azone.
I understand why you’re hesitate to purchase another Azone doll
My sister experienced similar frustrations when she purchased her 1st Lil Fairy Harmia.
Not only was this a new series from Azone but also the 1st time for the Picco Neemo D Sister body.
Sadly the Picco Neemo D Sister bodies are now known for losing body parts.
So I can relate to you when you say you feel like a guinea pig.
The only thing we can hope for is that Azone will continue to make improvements to the bodies while listening to the concerns and issues we have.
Thanks so much for providing a detailed review of the Pure Neemo 2 Emotion body.
I’m sure others will find it as helpful as I did.

Hey, sorry for not commenting in a long time. I know I haven’t done the review (I’m just too busy with my studies and I thought I could do it, but I didn’t:/).
So here’s my summed opinion on the new body and azone dolls in general as it was my first purchase; I have to admit, I was a bit disappointed. Indeed the clothes, the doll’ face and hair (could have been more rooted though, can’t give her ponytails without some baldness) are high quality, but the body (the only thing that was made in china, lol) is kinda sucks. The joints are quite floppy, especially the third part section in the torso which make her slouch, also the hips and ankle joints so she can stand only for brief of time before turning into a rag doll-like. Her matte plastic skin is quite easily prone to be scratched and reveal shiny lines underneath. Another issue, I had is her shins twisting and deforming due to bad bending/swiveling of the knee joint (so you have ugly gap between the shin and knee from sideways). Despite being promoted as highly articulated, she have quite limited articulation, notably noticed in her arms which barely reach 45 degrees in some poses (due to having limited elbow swivel) , limited hand posing, limited thigh/knee swivel, no ankle pivot.
Wow she’s actually pretty cute. Darn. If I hadn’t already purchased a bjd recently, I might have been really tempted to get her despite the fact that I am trying to not buy anymore Pure Neemo dolls.
So she looks to be on the new body correct?
My favourite part about her is those big adorable eyes. And that really cute little smile.
Hi Alasse Carnesir,
How exciting, congrats on bringing home a BJD 🙂

She is so cute. I was waiting on her pre order page to be up. Such a mischievous little smile!
Hey Ternessa Hammonds.
I hear you, Takagi-san is a total cutie! 🙂
Lately I feel the Pureneemo announcements have been getting cuter and cuter.
I don’t know what dolly magic Azone’s adding to their dolls.
Thank you for taking the time to chat with us about Takagi.
