When I saw this commercial for Kewpie cellphone charms, it really reminded me of the Joker. I almost want to say that Christopher Nolan was inspired by this ad. The charms themselves, which some look like tortured babies, rank as one of the strangest things I’ve ever seen come out of Japan, and I’ve seen a lot of strange things. The land of Hello Kitty isn’t always fluffy and cute.
