Juxia Figure Review - Late-Night Alchemist Ryza Preorders Open Now!

There’s something almost poetic about catching Ryza in a quiet moment. Known for her boundless energy and curiosity, Reisalin Stout from Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends & the Secret Fairy rarely slows down. But in this collaboration between Atelier Ryza 2 and Azur Lane, Wonderful Works captures a side of her we’ve never truly seen before. The Late-Night Alchemist Ver. is not just another figure—it’s a rare snapshot of calm, comfort, and gentle allure.

A Collaboration Worth Talking About:

Crossovers come and go, but this one stands out for how natural it feels. Ryza’s “Late-Night Alchemist” design originated from the official Atelier Ryza 2 × Azur Lane collaboration event, and this 1/7 scale figure translates that artwork into a tangible masterpiece. Distributed by Good Smile Company and sculpted by ene, with paintwork by Hiroshi Michikawa, the craftsmanship here speaks for itself.

The figure measures roughly 105 mm in height and 220 mm in length, a horizontal composition that immediately draws the eye. Instead of striking a typical battle pose, Ryza reclines on a futon, her expression soft yet quietly thoughtful—as if she’s just finished a long night of tinkering with potions. That simple change of posture gives the figure an intimacy that feels almost cinematic.

Craftsmanship and Detail:

Wonderful Works is known for precision, and this release pushes that reputation even further. Every strand of hair, every subtle fold of fabric, every shimmer of painted highlight feels alive. The delicate transitions in her skin tone, combined with the layered complexity of her nightwear, create a sense of warmth that can’t be faked. The removable comforter and futon-themed base add versatility and realism—small touches that collectors always appreciate.

While the overall color palette stays true to Ryza’s signature charm, the softer tones used here lend her a maturity that contrasts beautifully with her usual adventurer outfit. It’s an evolution of her character rendered in form, not just fabric.

Preorders and Release:

Official preorders are now live through the Good Smile Company Online Store. Orders will remain open from October 30, 2025 to January 14, 2026 (JST), and each customer can purchase up to three units. The figure is priced at ¥23,980 (tax included), with a scheduled release in July 2026. As always with Good Smile, preorders placed during the official period are guaranteed fulfillment—so there’s no need to fight for a restock later.

Why Collectors Are Excited:

Ryza figures have always been collector favorites, but this one hits a different note. It’s less about adventure and more about serenity—a celebration of who she is when the world goes quiet. That emotional depth, paired with Wonderful Works’ exceptional execution, is exactly why fans are calling it one of the most captivating Ryza pieces yet.

It’s also a reminder of how far figure artistry has come. This isn’t just plastic; it’s storytelling molded into form. Whether displayed solo or as part of a broader Atelier collection, the Late-Night Alchemist Ver. feels like a statement piece—subtle, elegant, and undeniably human.

Final Thoughts:

If you’ve ever connected with Ryza’s warmth and curiosity, this figure distills that feeling into something you can keep. It’s not flashy, but that’s the point. It whispers rather than shouts—a late-night conversation between artist and admirer.

Preorders are open now. When July 2026 arrives, and the box finally lands on your desk, you’ll be glad you didn’t sleep on this one.
