Default Head size?

It's probably the last thing on his mind, owing to the awful events his country is suffering; but has anyone else noticed Emperor Akihito's odd appearance?

His head looks like it's been fed steroids.

You are ignoring the fact that the Japanese are alien robots, hence the weird fashions, big heads and no concern over radiation...

Hmmm, I actually thought he had a normal sized head.



















With a six year olds body.

the newish adverts with the grinning idiot self-satisfied implausible Halifax employees you mean - has to be the least convincing adverts currently running on TV.

Large brains and large IQs, maybe?

I have no opinion on this, of course.
