So I was out shopping at Aeon last night for a gas range for my kitchen, and I noticed a girl near the entrance of one of the stores wearing a full-body Pikachu suit. I thought that was cute, and I was curious as to what kind of promotion was going on. It's not so uncommon to see people in weird character suits as part of some sort of promotion here - Japanese people love to play dress-up.
But as I walked closer, I realized she wasn't an employee. She was a CUSTOMER! Walking around in a full-body Pikachu suit and flip-flops! Just shopping by herself... not even acting embarrassed or silly, just kinda wandering around, window-shopping with a faraway stare like there was nothing unusual going on.
Japan kicks ass. :)
