Whether it be to celebrate Christmas or the end of the year, there is certainly no shortage of parties around this time. And whilst it’s not really my thing, fancy dress events aren’t uncommon. Or at least it would seem that way from a shop I was in earlier today.
Costumes of seemingly every variety you could imagine were available, including this rather perturbing prepubescent schoolgirl’s gym outfit.
Less disturbing and more intriguing is the bear costume pictured below. As the packaging doesn’t make it clear, I find the genital area a little worrying. Are the necessary bits part of the costume, or is the wearer expected to display his own?

A crotchless bear suit perhaps. Charming.

Dude, I hate to be the one to tell you. But you seem to be confused about things.
On the one hand, you describe the controversy about such things. On the other hand, your site is completely littered with such images.
I think you should just admit your admiration for such things and let it be.
I would. I do.
Lee says
Yeah, you’ve got a fair point there sfjedi.
Although I wouldn’t say I’m confused as such. All of the stuff I put on here I find fascinating in one way or another. It’s just that some of it (whilst still interesting) can be a little too far out there.
But as many posts prove, I obviously feel such stuff is worthy of an entry. Just with (very) slight reservations that’s all.

I think that bear costume may be a tanooki costume. You know those statue of the racoons with the big crotches. It would explain why the costumes may be crotchless (wishful thinking).
But the parts may be included with the costume for there are some ball shaped objects in the left side of the bag.
I love this site! Always a good source of the bizarre stuff in Japan.

I agree with velvet the writing on the side says ãŸã¬ã witch translates to tanuki the trouble making racoon dog wich is often depected with giant genitals.
