Great weekly feature Danny. Since its been awhile since I was there things look familiar and new at the same time. Good show. As for jaywalkin, it is illegal but generally ignored here by police. Unless it is spotted just at the right time causing po...
Very nice. I'm not even familiar with this character, but I've seen a couple figures of her. Only thing is her loose socks look kinda weird. Not sure what, they're just strange
@Danny, You ever try that drink called ALOE? I hear its good, but don't have it here yet. I wanna give it a try. (Second vending machine pic, top left corner, green bottle)
Oh I love Calpis water! My friend in Japan made me reluctantly try it. After the first taste its all I ever drank in Japan. Love the Calpis, must have the Calpis. I was also surprised cream soda is yellow/green in Asia where its pink in N. America. A...
Wii has a strong lead over PS3 here in userbase. I doubt even the holiday season and price change will alter that. Currently playing Mario Galaxy on my Wii, and playing Ratchet & Clank on PS3. Switch between the 2 whenever the mood strikes me, but I...
Never watched Evangelion, hence I have no idea who this figure is. Everyone else seems to like her though for her character in the anime, otherwise she just looks like an average figure to me.
Since I use my computer for gaming I'd have to choose desktop. I admit it takes quite a bit of upkeep to keep it up to date, but my 8800 nvidia should be useful for awhile. Also, nice to view it all on a huge widescreen monitor since I'm on it alot.
Funny Danny should post a topic about Heroes just when there is breaking news about Hayden Panettiere (cheerleader), and her little dolphin saving stunt a little while back. Apparently Japanese authorities have issued a warrant for her arrest. Guess...
Errr... you're gonna bust up your white armor pullin those moves. Unless you get some boba fett armor then you can scratch it all you want. Better yet, get one of the people visiting you in Dec to wear boba fett armor and dance around crazy. That'll...
I remember this building while I was jumping off and on the stations on circle train line. Think it was the yamanote line? Anyhow, I hopped out of tokyo station and walked around taking pics of the surroundings. Truthfully I didn't know what this bui...
Here's the thing: Its all about being able to play the games you wanna play. Right now, 360 has a extensive library of great games, so its not surprising they're selling well. Undoubtedly PS3 will eventually have a great library as well, but nobody w...
I love Christmas, and unfortunately I'm generous to a fault. Between GF, family & friends the bills wind up to be around 2K in Jan. Esp when loved ones get multiple gifts. Of course I love receiving just as much.
You'd be hard pressed to find Newtype magazine around here if you didn't know where to look. However you can find some back issues if you look really really hard. The only thing abundant that is japanese here are sushi restuarants.
Funny you should post this Danny as it is one of the things I found funny while visiting Japan. But not because ppl stand around reading mags. We actually have ppl here do that here at bookstores. Rather that groups of guys would stand around looking...
Drivers in my region are terrible. We're in a economic boom, so there are alot of new out of towners here. People here just drive with so little awareness of others its ridiculous. I'm on the road alot, and there isn't a day I don't shake my head at...
Expensive, time consuming, and messy but perhaps worth it when all those cute japanese girls start squealling "kawaii!!" at your little pup. Easy pickings that's for sure.
My sleep patterns are haywire. During working weekdays I sleep about 4-5 hours a night. Then when the weekend hits I recoup with 8+ hours per night. No wonder my weekends seems so short.
Depends which cultural society you were brought up in. In the west we're so accustom to eating farm bred animals since children we tend to think of them as just food. Especially since most ppl just see the end product in the supermarket. More exotic...
Wendy's here taste great, so does KFC. Although eating too much of either will probably kill you from fat intake. Mickey D's is so-so, but everywhere. When I was in Tokyo ages ago I did surprisingly find a BK in Shibuya (probably not there anymore)....
