Erika Toda Is Misa Amane

It's no secret that the storm begeted by the filmization of the manga series DEATH NOTE has spread from native Japan to the rest of East Asia and parts of the West (notably Stateside).

And it doesn't take a Shinigami (or God of Death) to tell you that however many second-rate Cosplay renditions of Misa Amane you see, only 18-year-old Erika Toda (pictured above) is fit enough for Punk Lolita frippery.

Misa-Misa may be the epitome of cute (to some folks who at least don't find her annoying), but the 2nd Kira can kill just by lO.Oking at her would-be victims!
