Kill the titans in your room! Attack on Titan launches official insecticide

Buying rare merchandise in Japan is a daily occurrence, but this took things to a completely ridiculous level. This Sunday, within the anime community, the world-famous Attack on Titan franchise left us all speechless by announcing an official collaboration to sell canisters of cockroach insecticide.

I'll exterminate every last one of them!

The idea behind this product is so absurd that it’s actually genius. In the original story of this shonen, the protagonists dedicate their entire lives to exterminating the human-eating giants. The Japanese company Earth Corporation decided to use that same rage and the series' iconic revenge catchphrase to sell its famous Gokijet Pro insecticide, swapping the giant monsters for the disgusting insects that fly into your room at night.

Levi's Cleaning Squad

To convince otakus to keep their homes clean, the poison canisters will come adorned with the most popular characters from the manga. The cans will feature special illustrations of Eren Yeager, Mikasa Ackerman, and, of course, the soldier most obsessed with hygiene in the entire animated universe, Captain Levi Ackerman. In fact, people on social media can't stop laughing, saying that Levi is the perfect character to be the face of an extreme cleaning product.

Hunting insects at the supermarket

This super limited collection will go on sale in the coming weeks exclusively at DAISO stores in Japan, which are famous for selling useful household items at very low prices. Each can of poison will cost only 550 yen. This way, Japanese fans can take home a collectible item of their favorite characters while keeping their kitchens pest-free without spending a fortune.

Seeing as the Japanese put anime characters' faces on literally anything you can imagine, would you buy a can of insecticide from your favorite series to keep as a decoration on your shelf, or do you think this is just too weird of a collaboration?
