Haruhi gets the Russian copy right infringement treatment on some sort of snack? Via Jabro.
wow... a defective haruhi on snack??? NUUU~~~ you are tarnishing the good name that is HARUHI!!! let's all haruhiists find the company who made this, and bring it down!!! all for the sake of pride!
Well said, my fellow Haruhiist! We must fight for justice!
Did they really use haruhi ? or they think they thought of it ?
*sigh
I don't know how the illustrator did it, but she almost looks like she should be there, as a Russian candy bar mascot. They managed to suck all the Japan out of her.
Lols, never though that Haruhi's influence has gone so far to Russia hahaha
well she's pretty much on the road to becoming a global anime/manga icon. Maybe not as iconic as Hello Kitty/Sailormoon/Mario but certainly headed there.
They do say that copying is the highest form of flattery... though the copyright issue is a whole different matter haha
Haruhi is taking the world by storm! Be it in a legal manner or not.
haha o_o oh boy
Here in Santiago, at a store in the mall, they used a photo of a cosplayer as haruhi. Was a very interesting sight. I doubt they paid any money to her.
You don't watch much television do you? In "Rojo Fama contrafama" (a television show in Chile which is somewhat like american idol but for singers and dancers), the famous Kipi Cosplay as Haruhi was used in the background for at least 2 weeks, I was really WTF when I first saw it.
That's a common sight here -_- not Only Haruhi, and it happened since looooong time ago.
What the fu-! Look at that creepy smile! How can they do this to her? Copy Right! Sue their assess for everything they got! Including the cookies or whatever they are selling! This means WAR.
YEAH!! RUSSIAN WAFFLES!! With Haruhi too! Lol. Oh, those Russians XD
lol!!!!
Something looks suspicious. I just can't quite put my finger on it... Maybe it is the twisted expression of Haruhi.
Hahaa her mouth looks so silly
This saddens me.
Hahahaha! Haruhi looks funny in that image though.
It is now confirmed that Haruhi has taken over Russia.. Who knows, she might rule the whole world.. XD
I don't want to be smartass, but it's actually Belarusian, not Russian.
lets just make it USSR for inconvenience~
Belarusian..? *goes to wiki*
she looks like a pig zzz
one star for the slightly-decent art, because i haven't the faintest clue as to what the food inside tastes like. Any well-meaning DC comrades in the area who're willing to get one for me? XP
At least it's not a mascot for chocolate laxatives.
I think there's something wrong with her nose...
Can she dance the Barynya (or other Russian dances?)
on one side this is not acceptable to see haruhi drawn in such way to promote stuff illegally but on the other side it means that H-ism is just all over the world
WOW SHES IN RUSSIA. I wonder if the russians do the dance. Oh well she is one the the cooliest anime characters around. Go Haruhi!
LOL, I thought she went to Germany...
Haha... she's everywhere... I guess being God isnt so bad after all =p
I don't think it is Russian wafers. It is written Minsk in there. And Minsk is the capital of Belorussia. Still the language is Russian, so it may be some Photoshop joke, I think. :)))
Just as I thought. :)) The side of a manufacturer http://www.minskhleb.by/product/slad/waffle.html No such waffers. :)))))
Ahaha, well done! *You were awarded the title of practical joke debunker!*
:-D I'm so proud of myself. :-D
I am not sure if anime is liked or even watched in Belarus, since I am not sure if Lukashenko banned it or not. But I dare say I have seen many images of Haruhi related to Russian cartoons or jokes.
what happened to her nose? ('~')
wtf is wrong with her nose!?!?!?!
lol some russian company is following a random chinese company's path XDD
Hmm....I don't remember haruhi's uniform being orange in colour. It doesn't really look like the actual Haruhi that we all know.
Well, it does border to China, so what do you expect?
Whaha ROFL XD!!! Yeah, Russia is next to china so no surprise on the dodgy rip job (surprised they didn't just use the official art). The packet reads: Waffles Yulechka in chocolate coating (made at Minskbreadprom Bread factory)
This is just sad... horrible copy of Haruhi too, lost all the cuteness. ;_;
Haruhi sure is going places. There are practitioners of Haruhism everywhere.
Here in Soviet Russia, Haruhi eats you... Wait... That came out sounding all wrong, Gomen -_-
OMG Someone alert the owners of Haruhi!! They is goin DOWN!! Downtown!! lol. Who thought they could get away with that? Just editting the pic slightly and changing the colours... gawd....
Ima going to get Zangief on those guys. We pals! PS Wait, not Russia? Pfft, Zangief still got this.
Haruhi is sure popular all around the globe
well, Haruhi does want to change the world...so this is the 1st step to it...
this is blasphemy... how dare they tarnish haruhi sama's good name...
and her image as well... she looks awful... oh the insanity...
That's a creepy face, fail and more fail. Haruhi shall smite them all.
First China...and now Russia......what's next!!!!
Why does this scare me. *runs*
lol the Japanese anime dudes have no way of protecting their copyrights internationally. If they did that with a Disney character, all of Russia would shut down for a month.
If you guys think this is bad, you should see the China copy of the entire cast. Sader-quality art. ^^; As far as I know, it's an info book about the Olympics, published for students. Link to that image -> http://img185.imageshack.us/img185/6536/b0f2d7f7e65f482d730d75dgt5.jpg
Oh no, more Harubin!
Interesting news.
makes you wonder... why haruhi?
Haruhi's World Domination plan maybe?
In soviet russia, God.... sells chocolate waffles?
Of course not! Bears and Romany don`t get us produced nothing but vodka! Alack us...
Copyright my butt. XD it's "Copy? Right!!"
WTF?
Reminds me of Big Bosses calorie mate in Metal Gear Solid 3 Snake Eater. Either way that's looks like a Haruhi rip/knock off design.
