Date A Live IV – Kurumi Tokisaki Calligraphic Beauty Ver. 1/7 Scale Figure Review
From Date A Live IV comes KDcolle’s Kurumi Tokisaki Calligraphic Beauty Ver., a 1/7 scale figure that blends traditional Chinese dress styling with Kurumi’s dangerously seductive charm. Sitting at a desk with brush and scroll, she looks like a refined calligrapher at rest – but the tight red dress, deep cleavage and high slits leave no doubt that this is also a very sexy display piece.
This pre-painted ABS & PVC figure puts a lot of focus on Kurumi’s curves: a pushed-up bust, a narrow waist and hips that spill out from the cheongsam-like dress, with long, smooth legs exposed through the slits. If you like “elegant but still very spicy” Kurumi figures, this version hits that balance nicely.
Packaging & Unboxing
The packaging is simple but effective: a wide front window, elegant colors that match the figure’s red and gold tone, and clear photos on the back to show how the whole writing scene looks once assembled. The inner blister holds everything tightly, which is important for a seated pose with multiple props and a dress full of small folds.
Front View & Overall Look
From the front, this version of Kurumi gives off a calm, almost relaxed mood – but the body sculpt tells a different story. The bust is obviously large and rounded, with the red dress pressing in from both sides to create a strong cleavage line. The way she leans slightly forward on the desk pushes that chest toward the viewer, while the high slit lets her legs and hips peek out from the tight fabric. It’s a great mix of elegance and fanservice: she looks composed and refined, but the outfit makes it clear she knows exactly how much she’s showing.
Side Views – Body Line & Calligraphy Scene
Viewed from the side, Kurumi’s pose has a nice flow: her torso leans slightly over the desk as if she has just finished writing, the bust hangs forward with convincing volume, and her legs stretch out comfortably. The desk, brush and scroll turn this into a small diorama rather than just a standalone figure, but your eyes are still drawn back to the way the red dress hugs her chest and hips. The profile shows clearly that this sculpt is built around those curves.
Back View – Hair, Dress & Hip Line
From behind, Kurumi looks a little more “quiet”, but the sculpt still pushes her curves. The dress wraps smoothly around her waist and butt before breaking into flowing folds along the slits, and the way the fabric rides up over her hips makes it obvious that she’s sitting on a very rounded rear. Combined with the long hair and neat desk, it gives off the vibe of a refined beauty who knows exactly how much she’s showing, even when you’re not looking her in the eye.
Hip Focus Shots
This figure may look calm and classy at first glance, but the hip area makes it very clear that it’s meant to be enjoyed as a sexy piece too. The dress doesn’t just loosely hang; it’s sculpted to cling, stretch and fold in ways that highlight the size and shape of Kurumi’s butt and thighs even in a seated pose.
Verdict
Kurumi Tokisaki Calligraphic Beauty Ver. is a great option if you want something that combines Date A Live’s fanservice with a more mature, art-themed presentation. It offers:
- A refined calligraphy scene with a desk, brush and scroll that feels like a small diorama
- A very generous bust, clearly pushed up and framed by a tight red Chinese dress with deep cleavage
- Beautiful leg and hip sculpting, with high slits and tight fabric making the most of her lower-body curves
- Clean paintwork on the face, dress patterns and gold trim, plus nice shading on skin and folds
- A seated pose that still has a strong shelf presence thanks to the desk and rich color contrast
If you’re a Kurumi collector or just enjoy elegant figures that are still unashamedly sexy, this Calligraphic Beauty Ver. is easy to recommend. The balance between traditional dress, calligraphy props and very bold curves makes it a standout piece in the Date A Live figure lineup.
