Kingyo SukuiAwesome picture. There was a Kingyo Sukui at the Aki Matsuri Japanese Festival at the local community college last week. Would love to have some fish at home, but I highly doubt my abilities to keep them alive.
A Week in Tokyo 45Would love to hear more about Chris' story. The more I hear about all these awesome stories about moving to Japan only makes me want to move there even more.
Cozy CornerWow, that all looks very tasty. And that's amazing that they would give you dry ice to keep the cakes cool. Would be shocked if any store over here did the same.
HM HarajukuOh wow, I really wish I was able to attend. this looks to be awesomely epic. Have a good show! I do hope we get a full photo article for it ^^.
Tokyo Tyre RepairThat's what I loved the most about Tokyo/Japan, there was always uncharted areas that were worth exploring. And most were only a train/subway station or three away.
GunplaWow, Gundams these days look amazing. Even non-collectors such as me can really appreciate the work and dedication that goes into all the little details.
Learning JapaneseI'm taking classes at the local community college, but need to find some time to actually study on my own, or else it will be two years before I pass the JLPT 3 -_-;;
That Kanji poster would help immensely...
Anime StatuesWow, Yui, Mio, and Ryougi are all GETs for sure. Don't recall seeing Ryougi with the death-perception eyes at the Tokyo Anime Fair. Am guessing it's a face variation? Either way, must get!
Hirasawa YuiHmm, I feel like more time went into the detailing for the Les Paul and Jazz Bass than the figures themselves...
Not quite persuaded to GET just yet, will see if GSC/Max Factory can do any better. Can't wait for the Nendoroids though.
Tokyo EveningPersonally, I'm doing a lot more of the things that I wanted to do but wasn't doing even up to last month. I'm exercising more regularly, attending Japanese class at the local community college, and blogging more frequently. I guess the only area whi...
Best Japan BlogCongratulations Danny! DC has definitely become the place I go to for insight into life in Japan and the various subcultures and hobbies we all enjoy. Heck, it was one of the posts by you that helped me book my trip to Japan this past March, and it w...
A Week in Tokyo 41Ah, I miss the trains, they were one of my favorite parts of Japan. Every day when I'm stuck in horrible Seattle-area traffic, I reminisce over the super convenience of taking the train to wherever I needed to go, and have a nice scenic view along th...
Masayoshi SonCongrats on the app debut! I'm seriously making the jump to iPhone, and a nice Mirai clock app would be one of the first things to get ^^.
MotsuyakiEvery once in a while it's nice. There's also a Korean dish called "Soon-deh" that's basically a sausage with noodles inside that's really good.
2009 Spring AnimeK-ON, because it's Kyo-Ani, and since Clannad ~After Story~ will be ending in the next two weeks.
Does anyone know the name of the song that plays during the first section of previews in the video?
SLR RecommendationsAnother recommendation for the 5D MkII. I've been waiting for the 5D MkII since the day I bought my XTi/400d. I think that if you've been able to use the Kiss well (and judging by the figure pics, that seems to be the case), then it's a great chance...
