Japan food trend: "cannibal banquets" - Bogus?



Chop open the humanoid piƱata corpse, rip away her skin, then nosh out on what's inside. The wounds you create "bleed" edible blood. Are the genitals jporn mosaicced like that in real life? Link, via Gadling (thanks, paul). Mark Bellis is among those who think it's too totally awesome to be true:

I don't think that's a real restaurant in the "Japanese Corpse" picture - the original post at weirdasiannews.com gives its source as a Chinese BBS - Tom ?? - (the Chinese characters might not come through) at http://bbs.tom.com/ - and the people in the photo look more Chinese than Japanese. Although there are plenty of weird theme restaurants in Japan, this looks more like somebody's apartment or studio, probably some art students celebrating Hallowe'en. it looks more like someone's writing in the captions themselves.
