Wow Japan...

[Mr.Petey]

oh god more RL hentai

it's called porn. And there is a lot of it.

What's so strange about that? Japan has some strange things, these are actually kind of adorable.

Seconded. On a scale of Japanese oddities, this is very tame and are rather adorable yeah I already wondering how much they'd cost if they were available to ship overseas.

You have to give Japan kudos for innovations like this

"The wearer concentrates or sees something interesting and the ears stand up. And when you relax, your decreasing brain activity makes the ears fall down."

I'm a terrible person for thinking, "What's the big deal? Guys already have one of those."

Ignoring the fact that I've never understood the appeal of girls with cat ears, the technology behind them sounds really cool. It's like the mood ring has been updated for the 21st century.

Ha I was thinking the same thing. The entire time I was looking at those some small part of my brain was thinking... Looks like a way to publicly display when your horney.

i mean like when you get RL tentical rape videos...

Seen one of those... Pretty scary.

Although that's mainly because Japanese porn stars are way too convincing at being 'rape victims'.

Seriously, I don't know how messed up a person has to be to enjoy watching someone that looks like they're actually scared, helpless and completely vulnerable, and in the middle of being raped...

The, uh, tentacles in the scene were quite interesting, although obviously fake, they were still pretty scary looking.

It was the one thing I've come across where I was both completely repulsed, and oddly fascinated by a video.
Although, considering it was supposed to be porn, the one thing it definitely was not, was arousing.

I object to the color scheme, but that's about it. That's actually kind of interesting.

It's not full-on catgirl without a responsive tail, though. Keep working on it!

I think it's a defense mechanism. People jump on the absurd bandwagon hate long before they see any actually strange stuff.

I'm not sure whether that's more facepalm-worthy, or the fact that people think anime animal people and furry animal people are somehow the same.

 

[jumjalalabash]

Ahhh Japan bringing your weird fetishes into tomorrow.

 

[Macgyvercas]

OMG I must get some of those!

 

[Bags159]

Only in Japan. Only in Japan. Seriously, you tell me someone has made these and don't tell me where they were made, I'm sure 99% of the internet would guess Japan.

lol

 

[bluebomber138]

You know, that's actually pretty cool. And also, come on, Japan!
You get an earthquake and respond by making "kiss simulators" and this "necomimi"? You should be working on either fixing your country or making video games!

EDIT: wow that sounded a lot better in my head....

 

[Aris Khandr]

Those are pretty cute. I might get a pair one day, provided they're not hideously expensive.

 

[Zannah]

Ah shit, the fucking furries will be all over this.

Your Avatar made this post incredibly Ironic

 

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

Oh science, when will you develop a cure for cancer instead of cat ears?

When Cancer gets sexy.

[sub]Though I think Cancer does deserve more attention.[/sub]

OMG I must get some of those!

My thought exactly.

 

[nukethetuna]

I just find their priorities with such technology to be a little funny. Though, if it really catches on in Japan and you see like half the population of Shibuya on any given day sporting those things, it will be a lot funny.

Ah shit, the fucking furries will be all over this.

How exactly? Amaterasu is a wolf. Nothing anthromorphic about her.

That's like saying it's ironic that I own a dog.

 

[Andalusa]

They are actually kinda cool.

Is it wrong that I want some?

See, what they avoid in their ads is how difficult it would be to actually control them manually (using your brain).

Using biofeedback to deliberately alter your brainwaves (and wiring up your head to translate the information into usable analog signals or digital coefficients) is something that's been around since the 60's. It's seen application ranging from "human modulation" in electronic music performance to "hands free" watercraft driving.

But the reason it's never really caught on is because it's fucking HARD. Most trainees quit early on in learning the biofeedback techniques because of the understandably frustrating initial lack of results. Typically one is wired up and situated in front of a monitor display 4 to 8 dots, on slide rules. The goal is to concentrate until you can move the first one and later, all of them. Problem being this takes WEEKS.

Anyways, there is potential there, but even practiced users results usually seem a bit... gimmicky?

Curing cancer isn't profitable. Robot cat ears that read your mind are.

 

[StellarViking]

They're neat, but I'd rather have some brain-controlled Beholder-style eyestalks.

 

[Bloodstain]

I actually like it, it is a neat idea. I wouldn't judge anyone for wearing them.

 

[PatrickXD]

Quick, Japan, what's the first thing that pops into your head when you think "mind controlled"?
Furries.
