Does this image of Japan's emperor look a bit strange? - Page 2

Maybe, like all good imperial families, they engage in the fine art of inbreeding.

He's really made some headway, though.

"What's a headway?"

"In this case, about 40 pounds."

small bodies, large heads seems to be rather common among celebrities.

Check out Billy Idol or Tim Curry or Eddie Izzard.

the host of AFV is like that too:

And the Olsen twins. Giant heads on teeny tiny little bodies.

And Xena (Zena?) looks like she has a mini-fridge for a head.

Well his head may be larger then normal but he sure can pick nice tie and matching pocket square combinations!

Well, wasn't it in the Peace Accords from WWII that the Japanese Emperor would furthermore be a figurehead?

I keep expecting his head to bobble in that first pic. It is freaking huge.

It is often thought that Asians and especially Japanese have heads larger in proportion to their bodies than others.

When I was in Japan I had to buy a hat, and the "small" size was the only fit.

But even allowing for this, he looks out of proportion.
