HKT48 idol Haruka Shimazaki disastrous efforts at cosplaying no less than Asuka Langley herself have proven even more provocative to Eva fans than her efforts at Miku were galling to Vocaloid devotees…
The spectacle in question:
Fans are not happy about this, although as AKB48’s marketing tactics have been likened to a combination of milking creepy otaku whilst trolling everyone else with endless minor controversies this may well be intentional:
“They are toying with us!”
“This is gross.”
“God I just want to punch her.”
“Especially in the head tilt one.”
“Mocking anime otaku again are they?”
“It’s far worse than I could have imagined.”
“What can I do with the rage I feel now!”
“Compared to the Miku one it is no wonder Eva fans are indignant.”
“At least use normal makeup.”
“It’s obvious they are doing this on purpose.”
“Someone put a stop to this, please…”

wtf is up with her eyes????? lol
STD?
They're painting over her bottom eyelid with white makeup to make it appear as if she has bigger eyes.
No one would notice, right?!
impossibru.
UNDEAD ASKUKA----YYEEEARRRGGHHH!!!!!
somebody kill the bastard that invented eye enlargement makeup
its Lady Gaga.
uh, no.
this is all the koreans' fault
???
at least those ulzzang have the decency to edit their photo/video BEFORE they post it...
how far are they related now?
Hmm... this is also racist in some ways. She's continuing the belief that gingers are soulless.
They aren't a race.
racing race of racists. nationality .
Yeah, that's why it's ok make blonde jokes.
Hey, you can at least act like a reasonable human being! They can't help their handicap! Jeez! Some people!
It's an insult to gingers AND the undead community.
Since when do witches have souls? Didn't they auction them on eBay to buy a PS4 or Xbone... ah wait, they want the new iPhone[n+1]!
I need to cleanse my eyes with 2D now.
Set up a the stake and gather kindling. We must consign this witch to the flames!
I got thet the stake!
Why has nobody slaughtered these girls yet?
I feel like the more people hate them, the more people love them. Seriously, it seems like the more controversy and scandals they cause the more sales they make.
"it seems like the more controversy and scandals they cause the more sales they make." Welcome to the world of showbiz.
No difference here, Asuka has always been bitchy.
True that's just showing her snobbish attitude
At this point they're just fucking with us to get a reaction. Not cool.
60 comments - kinda dying down. No wonder english fans are just grazing and not taking this site seriously anymore.
SyFy Chan has a Cosplay tv show coming out maybe Sankaku just exist to sell perverted products & was never meant to be about Otaku news?
True enough. This was supposed to be a site for anime and manga. Now it's just salacious news about idols, idiot lists, Chinese screw-ups, and butthurt trolling. I'm looking for a REAL anime site.
You're right. Not to mention they mainly only cover shit anime. I get that this site is mainly about perverted things but if we're going to talk exploding China I don't see why we can't have topics on attack on titan. I hear theres a new sankakulike site coming in the winter so Ill look forward to that.
i wanna talk about SNK because someone needs to bring up how much of a little bitch eren actually is
Maybe loose the lines on the bottom and it's 10/10
Drawing eyelashes under the eyeballs ruins any girl, 2D or 3D. My biggest gripe with FMP.
They need to fire the Make up artist, I am sorry to say whoever did this did a horrible job.
Those condemned fake eyelash needs to be burned and anyone else who endorses them. Really, is there no cosplayer who believes in their face anymore????
I blame Michelle Phan for this since she started the whole heavy white eyeliner for anime look. I have never seen a cosplayer did this kind of bull crap until she did her anime eyes look and her sailor moon look and the hatsune miku look. All of it have the same heavy white eyeliners thick under eyelashes and heavy make-up. All of it just look ridiculous. Her popularity as a YouTube make-up artist is just plain ridiculous.
it's not make-up, it's poor paintjob.
Ugh....... BLLLAAARGHHHHH....
i'm just vomited.
KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!!!!
What-----you don't like Zombie Asuka?
She's already SALTY like Asuka before the make-up- why slut her up with that DOLL make-up
can still do. Just go at all the matters from behind and it should be convincing enough.
She looks like she has'nt slept for a year :)
What is this contraption.
Just goes to prove some aren't made for cosplay. Continue with the all-in-one blended singing girls. And stop wearing the wigs. Please.
Right, the head tilt one creeps me out.
Quit it with the creepy eye makeup and then both cosplays aren't that bad. But it's really a deal-breaker. Asuka doesn't even have prominent lower lashes.
paruru is an insult to humanity, and not just because of her cosplays.
They should choose a least popular anime gal to cosplay.
The head tilting is retarded, and the vertical line created as fake eyes lashes under her eyes, look so out of norm.
would have been just fine without the lowbrows.
Paruru's from AKB not HKT okk
but yea the cosplay is terrible especially that nose contouring
What I see is people [who actually see an Asuka here] insulting themselves - no Asuka here :)
