A gentle breeze carries the salty scent of the sea, concealing the mysteries and splendor of countless lives.
A tiny maiden drifting in the deep blue sea, laden with unfulfilled wishes.
Repeatedly, with deep affection, capturing a call from the depths of the ocean.
When starlight sprinkles the sky, a touch of tenderness is poured into the ocean waves.
Conveying the healing rhythm of the ocean, in a way that is ancient and gentle.
Telling an eternal story of life, cycles, and harmony.
Collectors familiar with my content should be able to guess that I’m sharing a new toy from WeArtDoing today, seeing these beautifully crafted background stories. After all, they’re really good at creating lyrical backstories behind their excellent works, which is an essential spiritual core for original creations.
I’ve shared several of their “Girl + Food” series before, including the instant noodle witch like Cup noodles, Japanese bento girl, coffee girl, American burger witch, and so on. This series has been continuously released and there’s always a design you’ll love.

Coffee Girl – Matcha Latte
As I mentioned before, the keyword for this series is “deliciously beautiful.” I feel like my “Bento Girl” figure is almost ready to ship, and I’ll be sure to share the actual product with everyone when it’s released.

This time, the “Sushi Fairies” new product line features four designs: “Sushi Fairy – Ikura Gunkan,” “Sushi Fairy – Seaweed Gunkan,” “Sushi Fairy – Salmon,” and “Sushi Fairy – Sweet Shrimp.” Let’s start sharing them below.
Let’s start with two types of gunkan sushi: fish roe gunkan and seaweed gunkan. I specifically chose two with noticeably different color schemes. One is primarily green and yellow, while the other is mainly red and dark green. The main difference is really in the colors, as the appearance isn’t drastically different.
The clear resin seaweed on the paint job echoes the girl’s green hair, while the red fish roe corresponds to her red hair. The overall atmosphere design is just as the official promotional text describes:”Golden fish roe gently swirls around, each one a tiny miracle from the depths of the ocean. The emerald green reveals a salty, refreshing scent, as if you can hear the gentle swaying of the plants below.” Damn, it’s truly dreamlike.
The official images give a rough idea of the size comparison. According to official data, the Seaweed Gunkan is 10.6cm (L) * 6.4cm (W) * 6.8cm (H), and the Fish Roe Gunkan is 9.4cm (L) * 6cm (W) * 6.8cm (H). Limited to 998 pieces worldwide, the delivery is expected in the third quarter of 2025.
Personally, I find myself more drawn to the latter two—Salmon and Sweet Shrimp Sushi Fairies. Maybe it’s just that I’ve never been a big fan of gunkan-style sushi to begin with, while sweet shrimp has always been one of my favorites.
To match the rice base of the sushi, the girls in these two designs are painted with white hair and outfits. The Salmon Fairy features a matte finish, while the Sweet Shrimp Fairy has a subtle pearl shimmer. Both seem to be made of transparent resin, giving them a soft, luminous translucency.
Another neat detail—both the salmon and sweet shrimp pieces can be detached from the fairy’s body, unlike the two gunkan-style fairies, which appear to be fixed in place (similar to the earliest canned food girl series).
In terms of size, they’re roughly similar to the gunkan sushi versions:
Salmon: 10.4 cm (L) × 4.6 cm (W) × 4.1 cm (H)
Sweet Shrimp: 11.9 cm (L) × 4.9 cm (W) × 4.6 cm (H)
Of course, if you’re really into sushi-themed figures, I’d definitely recommend picking up the full set of four. I took a look at the official group shots, and honestly—they look amazing when displayed together.
With glowing seaweed, sparkling shrimp, and resin-crafted dreams, WeArtDoing’s Sushi Fairies series once again proves how well they blend storytelling with figure design. Whether you’re a sushi lover, a collector of original characters, or just someone who appreciates “deliciously beautiful” art, this set is hard to resist—especially when displayed as a complete quartet.
That’s all for today’s post! Now I’m just wondering… when are we getting a hot pot version—with a whole bunch of girls soaking in broth together?
Question of the day: If you could turn any food into a magical girl figure, what would it be—and why?
Drop your ideas in the comments. Let’s dream up the next dish together.
