Milk does a body horrifying in Majin Tantei Nogami Neuro

Majin Tantei Nogami Neuro ("Private Evil-Eye Nogami Neuro") is about a mystery-eating demon who acts on Earth through a high-school girl who works as a detective (with Neuro behind the scenes doing the real detective work). Marvelous Interactive is bringing the anime and manga property to the DS as an adventure game.

A supernatural-themed detective adventure game sounds great to us even if it is a manga license. We're fans of solving murder cases on the DS! But what doesn't sound -- or look -- great to us is this freaky cow thing. Found in what appears to be a journal page about a case, this is a milk container whose cow mascot has come to life and started emerging into three dimensions. We don't know why a tiny, big-headed cow should freak us out so much, especially since cows never do anything, but suffice it to say that we've sacrificed the next couple of nights of sleep for this post.

Oh, we forgot to mention: Neuro's assistant Yako, in addition to a case log, keeps a blog about everything she eats. We hope this picture is from the case log.
