I don't see what's wrong with this. It looks kinda nice and less cringeworthy (just as long it doesn't make you look weird). Although I did find this a bit unexpected when I saw this article. Nice to see H&M using anime to create something fashionable.

The hoodie is kind of cute, but the rest is really painful.

Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, NOPE! Forever 21 MIGHT be able to pull this off but anyone else is just a heck of a ton of NOPE!

I can't wait to see how many weeaboo's we get out of this. It's the beginning of the end for our love of Kawaii everyone. Grab your Hello Kitty's, Rillakuma's and Mameshiba's, and Pokemon plush toy's. You're gonna need them the direction this is going.

Well the only one I see that has a problem is the one saying "Kawaii cutie."
That being said I'd totally buy the anime character pants more than the sweatshirt.

I don't think they look that bad, honestly. I admit i winced a bit at the Kawaii Cutie shirt, but a part of me does like that anime girl sweater (although for that one, I'd definitely would have to see it in person and would sooner buy the leggings/pants version).

I think most of the potential customers looking into these outfits might be more comfortable wearing the anime girl sweater than the bland-looking pink "Kawaii Cutie" shirt for obvious reasons.

Doesn't "kawaii" mean "cute" in Japanese? "Cute Cutie?" It's a little redundant.

A sweater and sweatshirt, just in time for spring.

My thoughts exactly. Did they even check with an actual focus group to see if these designs would sell? Was the designer on acid? These are absolutely horrible.

That is exactly what it is, making it perfect for weeaboos...*sighs* I clicked on this article hoping for something less insulting. I will stick to Hot Topic thank you.
