DRAMAtical Murder Figures: Buy Aoba, Koujaku, Noiz in 2026
Share
If you've been hunting for DRAMAtical Murder (DMMd / ドラマティカルマーダー) figures — especially the 1/6 scale Aoba Seragaki & Koujaku pair from Hobby Nati — you've probably noticed how impossibly rare they've become. The original 2013-2017 production runs sold out at retail and never got reprints.
This guide covers what DMMd merchandise still exists in the secondary market, who the main characters are if you're new to the series, and how to source these items from Japan in 2026.
The main characters and their merchandise
- Aoba Seragaki (蒼葉 セラガキ) — protagonist. Most figure releases. Notable: Hobby Nati 1/6 scale (2014), Movic acrylic stand series, Nitroplus illustration book
- Koujaku — childhood friend. Frequently paired with Aoba in figure sets. Hobby Nati 1/6 (2014, same line as Aoba)
- Noiz — Rib member. Limited figure releases. Mostly acrylic goods and event merchandise
- Ren — Aoba's All-mate (dog form). Plush from Movic, prize figures from Sega
- Mink — Scratch leader. Rare figures, mostly drama CD bundled goods
- Clear — fan-favorite. Posters, drama CD, character song singles
Why DMMd merchandise is so hard to find
DRAMAtical Murder is published by Nitroplus, a Japanese visual novel studio with a small-scale merchandise approach: limited initial print runs, no overseas distribution agreement, and a fan base that holds onto pieces long-term. Combine that with:
- The original visual novel released 2012-2013 with the anime in 2014
- Most figures were Hobby Nati / Avex / Movic limited editions
- Almost no reprints since 2017
- BL anime niche means smaller fan base outside Japan but very dedicated
The result: pieces that originally retailed at ¥10,000-15,000 now trade at ¥40,000-80,000 on Yahoo Auctions and Mandarake. The 1/6 scale Hobby Nati Aoba can hit ¥100,000+ in mint condition.

Authenticity verification — what we check
DMMd has a known fake market (especially Koujaku and Aoba 1/6 scale figures from China). Every item we ship goes through:
- Box and seal inspection — official Hobby Nati boxes have specific printing and seal patterns
- Joint quality check — fakes typically have looser joints and inconsistent paint
- Original certificate of authenticity when available (Hobby Nati included one with first-edition releases)
- Comparison against verified reference images from the original Hobby Nati press releases
We're a licensed second-hand dealer (古物商許可番号 308942319801) — authenticity is the foundation of our business.
