If you're anything like me, you have a thing for girls with glasses. Yep, the meganekko do it to me every time. On top of all of that, I've always had this thing for Japanese mega-pop star Hikaru Utada. I've never considered the combination, but now we can see the power of this unholy union first hand.
The above video is short, but oh-so-sweet. Hikki-chan dons a pair of glasses on a Japanese variety show for a bit of fan service, and the crowd goes wild. And then, with a subtle head tilt the crowd explodes.
I'll be honest: my heart fluttered so hard that it hurt. The power of Hikarumegane has overcome me.

Yeah, this kind of thing happens to me all the time.
*sigh*
It's the price we pay.
Well, she was f-ing adorable in her glasses playing Tetris. Huge moe-factor, there.

Has Utada made a sex tape yet?
I know there's this really short and meh video of her nude before she takes shower on Alternate Zenra.
I can't deny that she was incredibly cute. But seeing Matsumoto and Hamada there was what kept me on it trying to figure out what show it was. Any clue? Cause the set looks completely different from their regular show.
@Kitsune: Oh, yes. I showed that video to my wife and said "Dang it, why can't we have pop stars like that. Japanese pop star is famous for playing Tetris and wearing glasses - ours is famous for getting knocked up and showing her snatch in public."
