Day in the Life of a Japanese Anime Figure Sculptor
A Day in the Life of a Japanese Manga and Anime Figure Sculptor at Good Smile Company located in Akihabara Tokyo. This is a typical Japanese working day at the office at one of the top figure production companies in Japan. Creating all sorts of popular figures like Jujutsu Kaisen, and even Kimetsu no Yaiba! We follow Sho from morning until evening to see what a complete day would be like working at a Japanese figure making company. Sho works in Japan as a Genkeishi, also known as a Figure Sculptor. Sho sculpts his anime figure prototypes by hand using Nendo, in English putty or clay, in his case, a polyester putty. And for his main tools, uses a toothpick to add putty and a sharp q tip to smooth out the surface. Today, he is working on a Nedoroido ( Nendoroid ) style figure. We also meet and talk to some of the other office workers in the Japanese company and give a full office tour. This is life in Tokyo for a Japanese anime and manga figure sculptor.

Been watching these day in the life videos since Monday before I go to work. Haha! @PaolofromTOKYO , do you or can you also make a day in the life of a bookshop owner/worker? 😄
Are they Jizz proof?
I love Japan❤❤❤
Good Smile Company has some wonderful quality figures
bro why does every japanese person have outdated phones
Oooh this video made me look up what's offered on Good Smile's website! Super cool~
6:08 Kokoro from bang dream spotted 🥹✌️
Do people in japan usually not tie their shoes?
No breakfast and ice cream for lunch? Ahhhhhh to be young again! (in my 40s) haha
Another Awesome Day in the Life vid!
I buy from Goodsmile company, its good to see that by Japan standards Sho's job is quite good in terms of working hours (He Gets to Go Home Everyday!), would love to visit Goodsmile's Tokyo office when I go to Japan, definitely would feel amazing just walking into the building
wow .. it very nice to know the artic make those colletion .. nice thank for sharing
more anime figure ones pleaseeeee 🙏
Now that is an epic fringe.
It made me believe again.
@@PaolofromTOKYO hello kuya pwede mag tanong ako Can it be a day of my life a graphic designer sa tokyo ? Try lang po thank you 🙂😁
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
栄養面が心配になってしまう
bought a pop up parade from Seto Kaiba for my friends birthday and Kaiju no.8 definitely good figure to see how it’s done is amazing.
His diet sucks. 💯
At 06:51, I think that's Ritsuka Fujimaru or his nickname, Gudao. The male protagonist for Fate/Grand Order.
Why do they still wear masks?
I wish you would show more toy companys and the process from start to finish of making a figure. Also the packaging / box arts would be very interesting.
Rimuru tempest😁😈
