"Oh, I don't know, if Japanese men will think I'm cute (see Avitar for the real truth)then maybe I'll go the bug eye anime look. I mean, what the heck!"
 
Mama she's making eyes at me
Contact lens makers have chosen silly season to release a set of lenses that will turn you into an anime character.

The lenses are tinted and have an extra-wide outer ring which makes it look like you have a wider iris.

The makers claim that thanks to their product you can look like an alien anime character without needing surgery.

According to Inventorspot.com all of Japan wants those big Anime eyes that, by making the rest of the face look small, add the cuteness and sex appeal prized by many Japanese men.

There is a picture here which we think could make any person look really scary.

The extra-wide contact lenses are made by Geo and Dueba, and cost between $30 and $50 per pair.
