Are the otakus okay???

This showed up in my YT feed and it was too cursed not to share. What gets me is that this is an officially licensed, SquareEnix-approved product what-the-hell

It’s seemingly made by one of those Chinese companies that make incredibly realistic and expensive action figures for rich nerds so it’s technically not a RealDoll but there’s probably a reason why its life-sized and why they chose the HoneyBee Inn outfit

Imagine visiting someone’s house and seeing this thing on their couch

Also imagine what it’ll look like in 20 years once the silicone starts to degrade

    Being lonely doesn’t mean someone is a bad person.

    Spending that much money on a life-sized hornified uncanny-valley-delving Tifa waifu doll in the horniest possible outfit that Squenix dares to license might extend and worsen a person’s loneliness, however.

      This is a product created for the loneliest of the lonely. I had a pal in Tokyo who I met playing left for dead off himself because he was so lonely. It really fucks people up

      What I’ve never managed to stop thinking about with these life-sized doll things is how much they must just seem like dead bodies, in form and function

      If you had to move house with this thing you would need to make the exact same considerations as a killer moving a corpse
