I dislike paintings like that where one character is looking at the viewer. It would be a so much more beautiful image if they were looking at each other and we were privy to an intimate moment.

I think you're onto something there . . . . The fact that the guy is looking directly at her but she's turned away creates a weird disconnect between them. It's sort of like she's confiding in the viewer, "Check out this loser, I've got him hook, line, and sinker!"

Yes, something like that. Her expression as you say, doesn't help.

Though their clothes are beautiful and very well painted.

It's cosplay, but it's so damn cool it's worth showing off.

Jigoku Shoujo, Enma Ai (who, I learned later, is the actual name given to the girl in Japanese mythology or something).

I think... isn't it all the same girl?

What is that black stuff? It looks to me like ripped up nylon sheeting stuff?

Somewhat creepy but still cool!

Wow, love that first picture. It is, as you say, so damn cool. I don't know if authentic is the word I'm looking for but... meh.

She looks like a doll. Like, the kind that comes alive at night and kills you in your sleep.

Those are really cool! I wouldn't ever want to actually meet her, but the pictures are definitely awesome.

At least "nylon sheeting stuff" sounds okay, since I was expecting someone to say "garbage bag"

It's from the anime Jigoku Shoujo, or Hell Girl, so yeah it's supposed to be scary. The doll is supposed to be a straw voodoo doll, and you pull the red thread when you decide that you really want revenge on your target by sending him/her to hell pronto-- with the price that you do as well, when you die.

I saw a Naruto cosplay of Hyuga Hinata once where the girl wore clouded contacts, and she looked more like a life-sized doll of Hinata than an actual person.

That... does not sound like a terribly useful power to have. In fact almost entirely valueless...

Depends on the kind of person you are IMO. If you're a destructive type and want to take as many people with you as you can, out of spite and vengeance, then I could see why someone might desire a power like that.

here are some more views of Jigoku Shoujo (Hell Girl) that I found, along with the straw figures...

So you can take out more than one target but still only pay with your one soul?

I'm not sure the devil works like that...

But even so, its not something I can relate too seeing what eternity in hell might be like.

Only works with one victim, actually. And the girl is only the messenger. Watch the anime and you'll understand. It's kinda repetitive in the beginning, but gets very good in the last few eps.

2nd season I didn't finish, so no comment. Didn't watch the third.
