This head is my sisyphean curse. Anyways...
'final cumulative update' what a lie that was! Back at it again with version 5, baby!
Cleaner HUDs, a proper expression HUD, more bonus junk, fully* open source... have fun with it!
DISCLAIMER: Any mentions of 'Roidkarada' are allusions to a near future vroid body conversion, I've left in compatible skins for that so I don't have to update this later lol. Give me like a week.
== FEATURES ==
❥ Basic expression HUD - control the open/closed state of each eye individually, enable or disable blinking, and choose a mouth expression.
❥ Very cross compatible with animations intended for regular human bento heads! Please remember to try demos, though!
❥ Fits many rigged hairs! However, PLEASE still try demos, as not everything is guaranteed to fit!
❥ Comprehensive customization HUD with 100+ options for the lashes, eyeline, luster, and pupil.
❥ TWO FACE STYLES?? The classic 'kohai' shape for a big eyed anime face, and the new 'senpai' shape for a more 'mature' look. Roidkun only has one though, sorry lol
❥ New skins, in more tones!
❥ SO much bonus garbage that it's clogging up my inventory
❥ Devkit link is freely included, along with script resources and textures! Additionally, you can export textures created in Vroid and use them here - they're cross-compatible!
❥ my tears
== KNOWN ISSUES ==
❥ the mouth looks jank if you open it too far but im not fixing that rn
I can only offer technical-level support (i.e script bugs), I cannot assist you with modding or other SL functions!
== 0L$ INWORLD LOCATIONS ==
Due to the marketplace burying 0L$ listings, as well as to allow gifting, this head is 1L$ on the marketplace. But if you can't do 1L$, it's free inworld!

Heads up! The skins included here were purchased from an artist going by Felikitty!
If you enjoy them and want to show the artist some more love and/or want to use them on your non-sl vroid model, please consider supporting the artist!

VROID is a free program by PIXIV that allows the creation of 3d avatars - this is simply a port of the head from that program.
VROID allows commercial distribution of it's character assets, you can read about that here:

I did not create this head, I simply rigged it for SL. This is intended to be a free, open, modifiable project in the spirit of the original program.
Awesome quality!
Other than the known issues, the bento lypsinc typer is very buggy.
As this is a free head that makes it easier for starters to have anime avis, and a masculine one even, being bento and everything, this review is way more of a "bug report" than actual complaining, as it's great to have it anyway ^^
- even without your head following your mouse, the eyes may still bulge out of the head every once in a while, but it's fairly rare, and you can get your hair to cover it easily
- at least in my viewer, there's a lot of clipping between the eye, the eye sockets and the lashes
- the eyebrows move very weirdly, just like the mouth (I personally think it's funny and I like it a lot, but if you're going for something a bit more serious it might not be for you)
- i couldnt find a neck fix for non BOM bodies
Whatsoever, the skin is amazing, and all of the textures are included, which makes the head easy to mod. I'm pretty sure it'd be possible to work around the clipping between the eyes and the lashes and the eyesockets by editing the texture a bit so it's invisible.
Overall, it's an amazing head! Really hope to see more updates of it in the future, as I'll be checking this store more often for this and other updates/items ^^
