Ika Musume

image
There is an anime character named Ika Musume. She is an aquatic being, a "squid girl." She is conventionally drawn as you see to the right.

After the jump, you can see how one fan imagined the reality inherent in the term "squid girl."

Mildly NSFW.

Flintstones Rock Out



Did you ever wonder what the theme song to The Flintstones might sound like if it had been performed by, oh, say, a group that echoed The Association ("Along Comes Mary," etc)?

Well, here's your chance to fulfill your fantasy!

Did you know, as IMDB tells us, that Bugs Bunny displayed his furry rabbit penis briefly in the cartoon embedded below? Yes, I actually captured a screenshot for your edification.

Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt


Further proof, if needed, of Japanese eccentricity and oddness: cosplayers depicting characters from this Japanese anime series.

"The Anarchy sisters, Panty and Stocking, are angels who were kicked out of Heaven due to their bad behavior. They are sent to Daten City (a pun on the Japanese word datenshi (堕天使?, lit. 'Fallen Angel')), a place located on the edge of Heaven and Hell. Strange monsters called 'Ghosts' besiege the city, but the Anarchy sisters wield a variety of mysterious powers, most notably their ability to transform their clothing into weapons. Under the watchful eye of Reverend Garterbelt, and with their pet zipper-dog Chuck, it's up to Panty and Stocking to destroy these Ghosts, in order to collect enough Heaven Coins to return to Heaven."

You really need to click on the image to admire it in its full-sized glory.

I wonder what his inspiration was for that look?
