A new way to get smelly otaku to take a shower: Trap sexy anime girls inside of soap【Photos】

An obsessive love of a particular hobby is the defining characteristic of otaku, but some anime and video game otaku also develop an aversion…to bathing.

But Japanese Twitter user @harakoatom recently stumbled across a clever way to channel otaku’s passion for their 2-D crushes into better hygiene: encasing sexy anime girls inside blocks of soap.

The more the soap is used, the clearer the picture becomes, encouraging the otaku owner to wash long, hard, and often.
