I wonder how long it'll take this to start showing up at anime conventions around here?

Via Chizumatic, appropriately enough on 6/6/06.

hmmm this bothers me on a few levels. But I've seen people working on it locally.

Okay, that's something I don't understand about this. What is it that's so damn creepy about this? What makes this different from other whole-body costumes or people wearing heavy makeup (Noh actors or women in traditional Japanese makeup?) that makes people go "Eeeeuuuwwww"?

There's some allusions to that in the Wikipedia article, but I really don't see it. Maybe in some respects I am still an innocent.

What struck me was how "wrong" it looked, like how the characters in Polar Express looked "wrongly real" & creepy to some people.
