Have you read our review of Nendoroid Sherlock Shellinford (a.k.a Sharo) which was posted early this year? Yes, that Nendoroid was bundled with the limited edition of PSP game Tantei Opera Milky Holmes that was released by the end of 2010. Since then, the Nendoroid has become pretty hard to be found and its price has been skyrocketing due to her epic expressions.
Well, Bushiroad announced that the said game is getting a sequel titled Tantei Opera Milky Holmes 2, which will include Nendoroid Akechi Kokoro (Game version), original soundtrack CD, drama CD, and Weiss Schwarz cards in the limited edition. Here is the original artwork of Akechi Kokoro:
The game is scheduled for August 2012 release and reservation will start on January 2012. The pricing schemes have also been announced: 13800 Yen, 9800 Yen, and 4980 Yen. The limited edition with Nendoroid should be included on either (or both) 13800 Yen and/or 9800 Yen. A digital download version (via PlayStation Store) will also be available.
Well, what do you think, Nendonesian? ^^

Oh man, I’m so happy they’re making a nendoroid of her! She was my favorite character on the show~
Ugh, so expensive o_o and will probably be hard to get, but I must have her!

Confusing enough, as the box printed “Shellinford” instead of “Shellingford”. No idea which one is correct though – and in any case, is it a problem? XD
Yea it is a problem! All official material spells it Shellinford. Be it the Official fanbook, T-Shirts, official goods, etc!

Any time Bushiroad or whatever spells her name in English, it’s Shellinford.
Stinky English sites and speakers just ‘assume’ that it’s Shellingford, because I guess that makes more sense in their gaijin minds. That’s why you’ll see sites like MAL, hobbysites, amiami, etc spell it with a “g”. They have no reason for thinking that though, they just assume. And as someone who is a big fan of Milky Holmes, I will not tolerate anyone misspelling her name.
Well then, the name “Sherlock Shellinford” has been corrected in the post.

I absolutely love your website.. Very nice colors & theme.
Did you create this website yourself? Please reply back as I’m
planning to create my own personal website and would
love to know where you got this from or what the theme is called.
Cheers!
