As America has the Hilton sisters, Japan has the “Kano Sisters.”
More photos.
In Japan they are best known for being known and their over-the-top plastic surgery, but the sisters Kyoko and Mika will be featured at the Otakon anime convention in Baltimore to announce a new anime project with character designs by pop culture illustrator Matsushita Shin of Production IG (”Ghost in the Shell, Blood the Last Vampire).
How will the sisters react to American Otaku and how will American otaku react to the Kano Sisters at he Press Conference is on August 9th ought to be fun.
Just as the 3Yen.com has covered in past summers, here’s the obligatory Japanese summer time treat….eel ice cream, pit viper ice cream, and ox tongue ice cream. YUM!
