(For those seeing this through reblogs, be sure to click the headline to see the full set of photos! You mustn’t miss the last one!)

Yes, that is indeed Col. Sanders in front of KFC in Japan, dressed as a maid.
I came across a similar photo while looking at a Japanese snack review blog. On the same day, one of my friends PMed me a link to a photo of the Colonel in yet another costume. I knew I had to delve more into the matter, so I simply Googled “KFC Japan”. The results brought me… such great joy.

I can understand them dressing him up in a happi to add cheer during certain occasions like festivals…

The watermelon prop is a nice touch. Going by that and the yukata, this must be from around the time of the Summer Festival.

I cannot imagine what time of year would be appropriate for friendly neighborhood Spider-Colonel. But I am not complaining.

Col. Halloween Medley! He is a Vampire Phantom Pumpkin Lord!

Shinsengumi Captain Sanders (with a rather oddly-placed sword)
And now it gets weirder…

I almost thought he was dressed as Gurren-Lagann. For what occasion do you think this is for?

Date Masamune?

…National Prawn Day?

Samurai Sanders

It seems to be a popular costume for him.

Is he a samurai or a water tower?

Watch out! He can hold a sword!
This next one is my absolute favorite…

Colonel Sanders as the Evangelion Unit-01, from the anime Neon Genesis Evangelion. Brilliant. Ridiculously brilliant.
