2 crows perch on shoulders of Itachi Uchiha cosplayer eating in KL
A man in Kuala Lumpur (KL) recently took his Naruto cosplay to the next level by dressing up as Itachi Uchiha — complete with two live crows perched on his shoulders.
A TikTok user who goes by @i.akmallll posted a short clip showing the unusual scene at a food court in Malaysia.
Crows perch obediently on Itachi cosplayer’s shoulders
The man was spotted in a red-and-black robe, symbolising Itachi’s ties to the Akatsuki organisation, with two live crows perched on his shoulders — a creature closely linked to the character.

One crow sat on the cosplayer’s left shoulder while the other perched on one of his hands.
Eager to start eating, the man moved his hand to his right shoulder, and the second crow immediately hopped over.

Crows have been recorded creating and using tools to catch prey, as well as forming mental templates — a mental image of an object even when the object is not present.
One commenter even joked that crows are smart enough that the Itachi cosplayer might just have paid them to do it.

Similar sighting in 2023
Interestingly, this is not the first sighting in Malaysia of a man eating with crows.
In 2023, a viral video showed a diner feeding a crow at a mamak eatery.
