Does this image of Japan's emperor look a bit strange?

From today's NY Times on the Japanese earthquake.

This is weird, his head looks abnormally large for his body. Well, maybe emperors possess larger then normal brains for all of those things they have to do.

Wow. That's an amateurishly bad photoshop effort.

He's anime.

(I'm sorry. I'm SORRY. I SAID I WAS SORRY!)

"Look at the size of that boy's head. It's like an orange on a toothpick."

"No kidding. His head's like Sputnik. Spherical, but quite pointy in parts."

"Oooh, that was offsides, wasn't it? Tonight he'll cry himself to sleep... on his huge pillow!"

"..hauling that gargantuan cranium about!"

That's a picture of the new Emperor Pez dispenser.

Youse guys are funny.

He's really a cute looking man, but yeah, why is his head so big?

Looks like a combination of him already having a big, round head, and he sticks his head out in front of his body towards the camera. Look at his neck its almost horizontal.

And *very* narrow shoulders.

"Does this tiny torso make my head look fat?"

I'm betting he's got some super-powers.

No. He definitely has a pumpkin head. But the op picture looks a little too sharply defined around the head. Maybe it's the field of focus (right term?) but his face looks sharply in focus, his suit doesn't.
