The Sengoku [Lotus](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/collections/new-releases/products/lotus-yoyo-by-sengoku?variant=44421508399294) is back at YoYoExpert in three incredible new colors—Black, Aqua/Yellow Fade, and a breathtaking Multicolored Acid Wash!

With its iconic perforated design and a body split into four interconnected “petals,” the [Lotus](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/collections/new-releases/products/lotus-yoyo-by-sengoku?variant=44421508399294) defies expectations. Its wild shape seems almost impossible, evoking a sense of disbelief that it should even work, but wow does it!
The [Lotus’s](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/collections/new-releases/products/lotus-yoyo-by-sengoku?variant=44421508399294) design not only looks stunning but also offers a unique throwing experience. Each yo-yo has been meticulously opened and tweaked, with shims added until the gaps are perfectly aligned, making it a true finished functional piece of art. While it is safer than previous models like the Hanzo and Hattori, it still requires careful handling. Tricks such as rejection or sidewinder-type tricks, where the string touches the body vertically, may result in the string catching on the body, leading to a sudden stop. Therefore, while it can ride on or slide along the string without issue, controlling it at an angle needs caution.

I’m actually really excited about this one.
My favorite color is finally coming out in this release.
The “ghost yo-yo” effect combines with the fade to look really cool when it spins.
The colors really pop in natural light too.

Red/black is my favorite. They all look incredible spinning.

Is anyone who has one of these willing to do a UFO with it and also record themselves doing it? I really want to know what happens.

I don’t have a video of it, but you CAN finger spin with it. Since I don’t listen to warnings I gave it a shot when I got it. I actually found it better to try and catch it slightly off-center, and with the inside/skin of your finger instead of the tip or nail because it gives a little more gap coverage, but will still bump around a little. The string also likes to get caught in the grooves if you’re not careful and shoot back at you potentially.
The Hanzo on the other hand is a totally different story, haha.
Finger grinds are also a little bumpy and weird feeling, but it’s all totally possible.
