"In addition to hosting "pilgrimages" from Lucky Star fans, the shrine has also held two otaku matchmaking events and decorates its mikoshi (portable shrine for parades) with Lucky Star characters."

So, this city's become a parody of itself?

Also, am I the only one who's totally sick of "This [noun] can't be this [adjective]", yet?

Eh, too many of the entrants put on eyeshadow and mascara. I prefer natural-looking "otoko no ko" without the make-up. This cosplayer is pretty cute, though. Embarassed

Actually, I suspect they're laughing all the way to the bank.

They've got a money making niche. Who knows how long it'll last? You can hardly blame them for making hay while the sun shines.
