Whenever the word "hand" comes up, many ACG fans instantly think of Yoshikage Kira from "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Diamond is Unbreakable." He's the peace-loving serial killer from Morioh Town with an abnormal obsession with "women's hands," famously carrying severed hands around to showcase his morbid pathology.
Recently, an X (formerly Twitter) user in Japan shared their collection of "entire boxes of model hand parts," and the sheer volume stacked together created an unsettling sight. At first glance, it's hard to tell what they even are, making the post a hot topic on X.
The photo, shared by the user, shows a cylindrical container packed tightly with small, flesh-toned objects.
Initially, the comment section was full of guesses: "Are those seashells?" some asked. "Macaroni?" others wondered. But a closer look reveals these tiny objects are all "hands"! The box is brimming with open hands, clenched fists, V-signs – hands of every shape imaginable, in a quantity that's almost dizzying.
Turns out, the user is a passionate builder of "bishoujo" (beautiful girl) figures, and the hands in the jar are simply the interchangeable hand parts that come with these kits. According to them, the jar holds roughly 100 hands, accumulated over two to three years. However, they clarified, "Each model usually comes with about five sets of hands, so for anyone who collects figures, it's actually pretty easy to build up this many."
Many netizens jokingly called the user a successor to Yoshikage Kira. While the collection isn't *that* outrageous, seeing them all together in one photo is genuinely startling. When asked, "Do you have a special obsession with hands, like Yoshikage Kira?" the user candidly replied, "Not at all." Hearing that, everyone could breathe a collective sigh of relief (lol)!
Staring at these hands for a while, you almost feel a strange pull—it's both creepy and oddly artistic. But for a model builder like the user, it's just a convenient "hand storage facility" for all those spare parts!
