Transformers Revenge JapanIs it just me, or is it the most proper thing a Japanese should do when greeting Michael Bay is to kick him squarely between the legs?
D500025 Minutes?!!! What an unusual unit of time to charge for!!
I have a budding interest in photography and that was the most blatant part of this post for me.
Otaku Encyclopedia"impress your GF or BF on your first date with your Otaku knowledge?"
LOL. First date.
The perfect companion when the obsessive-compulsive mind has reached its storage limit.
Interestingly, I still haven't learned or even come across the Japanese...
Eroge and DoujinshiI wouldn't think you'd go bankrupt, I'd say. Doujin is just so much cheaper over there. Plus, there's always e-hentai.
I would totally do up my stairs like that....
....at my OTHER residence.
....and I still'd need to raid a doujin store's dumps...
Dengeki HimeWait, how come I never got the idea that Megami was "Playboy for 2D girls"?!
...At least not for the localized copies I bought in China.
Well, I did get a decent amount of posters...
A week in ShanghaiAlso, the anime mags that had discs with full songs and episodes (and goodies) for 15 yuan were very, very rad ("Dòng Gǎng Xīn" coming to mind). Sometimes copywlight vioration is awesome (although I'm not actually sure that's the case with these mag...
A week in ShanghaiShanghai is quite an awesome and kickass place, for the most part. Expect to see people making their living begging and expensive but not-up-to-par pizza, though.
Quite shockingly, for such a large and international city, there is a severe shortage...
A Week in Tokyo 26Red Cliff might be be most awesome thing to come out of China since the Ming Dynasty.
I was in China in the summer of '08, when I saw DVDs of Red Cliff on sale in a Tesco in Shanghai, while it was still in theaters (huh). Well, although it was in a...
Flip Hole ReviewToo...many...euphamisms....can...no longer understand....the difference between....subtlety and outrighteousness.....
On another note, stupid Japan for overdesigning things. It looks like your dolphin would experience trauma and lacerations from th...
Revoltech YokoSomething tells me that this "somewhat fugly" picture was specifically chosen by Danny because of his "connections" with Good Smile and Figma. Esspecially since most other reviews have rather attractive shtos.
Mikuru HaruhiWait, lemme get this straight.... THEY WHERE THROWING THESE 1/4 FIGURES AWAY?!!
God I hate you limey bastard.
IMO, I never really thought "Haruhi" was all that "different" from "Mikuru". Which is why I always thought she was such a damn hypocrite...
FigmaDammit. And I had to just pony up and finally buy "normal" Tsuruya at effin' Comic Con where I done got my camera stolen.
I need a way to destroy this Good Smile Company so I stop blowing my money on them.
And IMO, a realistic proportioned Figma...
Free Food in JapanOh Danny, will you ever stop the bashing of your fellow Brits?
Alas, I didn't see any free samples either at the Tesco's I went to in China. Strangely, I also prefered going there over Wal-mart out of a misinformed sense of nationalism. Wiki-ing f...
Black TissueWait, why would my captive dolphin need tissues for its heal......Oh, I see what you did there...
Even innocent uses for this product, i.e. "sneezing", would wield nasty results.
Second Hand Manga(Though I have to wonder how they get secondhand Japanese manga in the States. Imported? But under $4 each? Still, I got at nice deal on some Gunslinger Girl that I havnen't the faintest idea how to read.)
Japan Optic Fiber Internet"One of the reasons why Japan has the highest internet speeds in the world at cheap prices - telecommunication wires are mostly above ground in residential areas and are easy to install."
Wait, what? It's the same here in the U.S., but you'd be luc...
Tokyo CommuteA-ho-li Shi-to! It looks so unbelievable that it seems staged! I can't see how this can be anything but detrimental to Japan's oh-so-stringent train schedules.
Solution? MOAR TRAIN! There, problem solved! I can't believe they didn't think of it...
Hobby ComplexI didn't think it was possible, but I DON'T want Figma Ryomou.
Besides, I still need to complete my Haruhi girls collection (cheaply, luls). Only have Haruhi and Mikuru right now.
Also, although I have (lovely) Figma Saber, Dark Saber would be app...
Japanese ScamsBah! Scams are for the gullible and emphatic! I've never fallen victim to a scam, even those "cheap cruise vacation" ones where the vouchers you bought can never be redeemed. Goddammit.
I don't understand how those CGs are supposed to relate, but...
Japanese HousingNot sure I understand the floor plan in the 2nd pic. Accessing the upper-left rooms seems to be a hassle.
I get a 20/5 Mbits FIOS connection, part of my $80 douple play plan. Although, it sometimes seems slower due to MY FRICKIN' ROUTER!! Also, a...
iPhone TVLOL. I think the whole point of this blog is to show that Japanese phones are too advanced for even the iPhone.
I personally hope they make a Transformers-ing phone, but I suspect it already exists.
Censorship in JapanYes! I need Tsukihime! WE NEED TSUKIHIME!!!!! The MirrorMoon fansub does nothing for me!!! (lies.) Although, Amorous Professor Cherry is awegasm.
Censorship in JapanWell, I meant worst case for me, if all restraint fails. Not that it matters, as I alredy noticed the update and *downloads* right after my post.
I think I also meant the original disc image (for backing up a purchased copy, uh, yep...), but I hav...
Human Rights in JapanI call Asakura Ryoko! I mean no one wants her, right? I did a text search, so I'm safe, right?
I'm just gonna assume what I did was legally binding and ignore all naysays. Should work.
