Square Enix's Tetsuya Nomura (Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts) finally admitted that all of his character designs have a singular goal: To make cosplayers look as stupid as possible.
"I don't like them. Any of them," says Nomura. "I just wanted to see how far they would go, but now they have no limits."
Nomura then pulls out a sketchpad to draw a wan, pink-haired character wearing a basketball hoop on his sleeve, a belt made of live gophers, and a fanny pack over his crotch. "This won't even slow them down," he sighs.
