Anime conventions can get pretty wild, but when’s the last time you attended an event where cosplay models were selling actual “foot juice”, as in fruit juice from plastic buckets in which they had dipped their feet? Despite the product’s unconventional nature, the $10-15 price tag wasn’t enough to deter potential clients, and according to multiple reports, the foot juice sold out in less than an hour.
It’s important to point out that the foot juice stands were not officially a part of this year’s Fanime Con, but of an outdoor event known as Parkon, where virtually anyone could show up and do whatever they wanted.
Photos and videos from Parkon 2026 show young girls in cosplay holding up signs with foot juice offers while having their naked feet dipped in juice, and some even offering to let customers drink the juice dripping directly from their wet feet.
Feet juice was definitely the main attraction of this year’s Parkon event, with many calling the stunt the lowest form of marketing. That is technically incorrect, considering how fast the unusual beverage reportedly sold out.
