- Either fails at achieving the true spirit of the theme or is a proper work of sarcasm towards the theme through its overproduction.
- Ugly staff.
- Most likely underappreciated art given it will either attract Bleach fans, the mildly curious, or hipsters.
- Probably features a menu based on overachieving dishes trying to be too big for what a cosplay cafe actually is.
- Silly look-but-don't-touch philosophy. Everyone knows not to touch the staff, everyone knows not to touch artwork in the gallery, there's no need for acrylic boxes making it harder to see the artwork and stuff in the gift shop.

If they wanted to make a cosplay cafe, they could have. If they wanted to make an art gallery, they could have. The combination of them simply results in the art gallery insulting the cafe through the artworks message. If this was the intentional result then well done but it doesn't necessarily seem that way.
