“LUMi will finally be available in stores tomorrow ( 。゚Д゚。)
This calls for a special petite LUMi!

Hey all!

https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B078FBC5RQ

To everyone who has already taken to first step to welcoming LUMi into their world, we would love to know your honest opinion of her in a review♪”

“♪(*^^)o∀*Celebration!*∀o(^^*)♪

For the support that everyone has shown us, you have our deepest, most heartfelt gratitude.
Today marks another new beginning, one that we hope will get even more people loving LUMi♪

(´ᴗ`8川) Here’s a new LUMi emoticon created by Una-chan♪”

As you may have read in our previous article, LUMi was first made available in August via the LUMi Komachi online shop, and this was the only way to purchase her Standard, Limited, or download editions.

As of today, the Standard Edition of LUMi will be available in music and electronics stores across Japan for the first time!

Also, you can now purchase LUMi from Amazon.jp, for ¥12,960 (approx $115).
