According to Hong Kong media South China Morning Post and Chinese media NetEase.COM, images of a man wearing a silicone body suit were captured on the streets and on the subway in Tokyo, Japan, surprising citizens.
Their costumes are likely inspired by 'Animegao Kigurumi', a mask cosplay style rooted in Japanese animation culture.
Recently, a video was posted on social media 'X' showing a man wearing a silicone body suit and a feminine mask sitting on the subway.
At first glance, it is difficult to recognize, but if you look closely or from close distance, you can see that you are wearing a mask.
One netizen said "He deliberately sat in a place with many women" "I was scared even though I was sitting a little far away "
He claimed he called the police, but no action was taken.
Another netizen said it is often seen in downtown Tokyo, such as around Shibuya Subway Station and Shinjuku.
Some of them wear full-length black stockings with masks without facial expressions.
The Japanese media called them 'tight men' because they wear tight bodysuits.
A man who enjoys dressing up as a woman in a silicone body suit confessed on social media that he once went into a women's bathroom and asked strangers to take pictures. He denied that his actions had harmed others.
A woman who revealed that she had met him in real life said, "I had no choice but to respond to the photo request because I was afraid that I didn't know what would happen if I refused" he said.
Meanwhile, in Japan, men who illegally enter women's toilets can face up to three years in prison or a fine of up to 100,000 yen (about 900,000 won).
It is also illegal in Japan only if you hide your identity for a crime.
Their criminal behavior is unknown, but such cosplay raises public safety concerns.
Netizens will never know who is watching you behind the mask. Just thinking about it gives me goosebumps."
