Da Capo maybe a very popular VN series in its heyday to the extent having 2 Full Season anime and the Glory day series has long gone just like many of its popular peers. But even so, Kotobukiya did a nice thing to bring back pleasant memory for this classic VN series by releasing a Scale Figure for Da Capo popular School Idol, Kotori Shirakawa. Released in 1/7 Scale, Kotobukiya's Kotori Shirakawa will be scheduled for December 2025 release with 21000 Yen price tag.
For those who are not familiar with Da Capo, it is one of the popular early 2000s Slice of Life VN series that are on par with series like Clannad, Shuffle, To Heart and many others. While I didn't get into Da Capo series for many reasons, I did read the manga and did develop a liking toward this particular Kotori during my secondary school years. Da Capo series also have some very nice Anime songs particularly Coorie's Sonzai which is still Top tier for me.
Kotori is easily the best waifu from the first Da Capo series despite Nemu Asakura being the main heroine, possibly surpassing the latter in Popularity. Kotobukiya do make the correct choice by making Kotori as the first pick to celebrate Da Capo series anniversary. Despite it is unfortunate that Kotori didn't win in the Da Capo main timeline, players could always pick Kotori as the main heroine in the VN and her Granddaughter is also available as main heroine in Da Capo 2nd VN who inherits her singing talent. In fact, perhaps I might give Da Capo VN series a try someday just for her route.
