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 
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
spoiler
Also imagine what it’ll look like in 20 years once the silicone starts to degrade
God that’s creepy
Folks, we do not love to see it
the only reason to have a sex doll is to leave them in funny places like sitting at a library reading a book
Bit idea: we put Lyudmila Pavlichenko dolls on rooftops above Trump rallies.
Sucks to be lonely

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
Nah, a killer can chop up a corpse for easier transport. That voids the warranty on these things.
They’ll make a life-size waifu doll but won’t give me a life-size metal king slime made from platinum smh
You’d get way too much experience that way and be way too dangerous.

Comment on video “real women might be in trouble” Sir… I assure you they’ll be just fine
i mean… Not just not in trouble, they’ll be less likely to find a prick that objectifies them… So… Seems like a win-win i guess?
This came up in my YouTube feed too. What does that say about us?
Glad to see they finally hired fans on this one
Het cis male sex toy shaming discourse go
This isn’t a sex toy though, which somehow makes it even weirder
Even if it was, I’d argue life-sized silicone dolls that cost thousands of dollars aren’t the direct equivalent of a dildo or whatever. There’s much more discreet and infinitely less creepy options for dudes looking to get their rocks off that you don’t need to hide like a corpse when your mom comes over
It is a sex toy. It contains sex toy anatomy.
I personally think it’s creepy since I have the same reaction to it that I would to a corpse but if you know anybody in the BDSM community they have waaaaay more elaborate sex-related things in their house than this.
It is a sex toy. It contains sex toy anatomy.
It does?! It absolutely blows my mind a company like SquareEnix would approve a fucking RealDoll with the likeness of one of their most recognisable female characters
I’ve actually thought about this and I wouldn’t mind a job making sex dolls for nerds. idk I just view them as any other sex toy
Sex toys should be discrete IMO…
And less… human
I’ve gone back and forth on this in my head, on the one hand yeah it’s weird and creepy and objectifying but on the other if we’re not going to stick sexless men in camps or kill them a good option is to allow them a release, there’s been dudes through the years that have actually straight up marry these things and have romantic relationships in the case of Davecat (google him). idk it feels harmless compared to say like sex work which is actually pretty dangerous.

Too ominous try again

I Googled their age (16) which is considered of age in Sharlayan society
something very uncanny about it in that lighting, if the person taping wasn’t physically fiddling with it i’d have thought it was a render
but looking it up it seems to actually be a sex doll, there’s “Voice Dialogue: 18 Voice Control/Dialogue Touch Sensing: Touch Sensitive Area Can Sound Intelligent Voice: Three Character Modes [Girl (Chinese), Mature Woman (Chinese), European and American Women (English)]” and it has a metal frame like one.
i’m kind of fascinated, i wonder if these sorts of things can balance on their own
I just checked the link and saw more normal expensive collectibles like an 1/6 scale Anakin Skywalker figure with an incredible likeness of Hayden Christensen and assumed they didn’t sell sex toys
I’m just flabbergasted a company as conscious of their brand and image as SquareEnix would approve a cursed product like this. The same company that currently has gamers in an uproar over slightly covering up female characters in the upcoming Dragon Quest remasters is also okay with turning one of their most iconic female characters into a sex doll homunculus
i can’t find any information about ‘juicy made studio’ besides literally this product, i’m not sure this is a real partnership with the studio, seems kind of grey market. there’s apparently a bit of a market in sexed IP-figurines & dolls that directly reference the content while clearly being unauthorized. but it’s presumably niche & hard to crack down on
I guess I was tripped up by the “Collectible Figure” branding and the assumption that something on this scale would require official backing of some sort. Like when I think of unlicensed merch I think of cheap stuff you can find on AliExpress but I suppose they don’t give a flying fuck about IP in China either way
something on this scale would require official backing of some sort
modern specialist handicraft markets are definitely something i don’t understand very well, but low-numbers high-cost operations like this probably aren’t ‘real’ factories with high capital investment, my theory is that these businesses would take normally manufactured sex dolls and bespoke customize them to look like characters, then they’re marketing them in slightly more ‘reputable’ places as an extension of the ‘figurine’ stuff. it’s a bit bizarre that they’re coy about it, wouldn’t a buyer want all the specifics/operation manuals on a really expensive sextoy? but i guess the barest pretense that the sexdoll is a collectible would be important to some prudish markets.
