TOKYO – LATTENING EFFECT?

In an event that has baristas and cryptozoologists alike scratching their heads, a viral video from a Shibuya Starbucks shows a customer’s latte art of Miffy the rabbit spontaneously morphing into a Star-Lord-esque face before the seal was even put on the cup.

Witnesses claim the foam figure—a perfectly poured licensed collaboration bunny—“blinked” before its ears elongated into a humanoid shape. The barista, upon seeing the result, immediately called in a “Code Miffy,” closing the register for a full 15 minutes.

The Matrix anomaly was reportedly resolved after a manager whispered the words “Uni-corn Frappuccino” three times into the milk steamer. Starbucks Japan has no comment, but local urban legends now claim the character’s true name is “Miffy S. Quill.”
