BOOK OFF is one of my favourite chains; they're practically everywhere (about 90 branches in Tokyo alone) and they tend to have great deals, especially for Europeans like me. :) However, it's a pity they were taken over by Tsutoya; the old yellow dis...
Oh yeah. Tokyu Hands is the shit when it comes to just about anything DIY and then some. Love to snoop around there, getting ideas for casemods and things around the house. We have an ample supply of DIY-shops, but those are clearly focused on DIY st...
Now that's cool. :) Doesn't cost nearly as much as I anticipated; I wonder whether it's compatible with the digital signal here in Holland. Does anyone know which digital carrier band is used in Japan? I hope it's also compatible with PAL. We have to...
On a dessert island? I'd probably go for some dessert first, or did you mean a deserted island? ;) Laptops are wholesome; compact and light, but most often lack computing power (unless you say goodbye to an arm and a leg, and throw in your left kidne...
One of the reasons I was told as a child to look left, right and left again before crossing the road (we drive on the right side over here, so in Japan, that would be right|left|right) is to avoid accidents. Too bad it doesn't keep you from potential...

Well, I liked them both; the English dub didn't sound half bad, and it just flowed. It's really important, especially regarding songs like this, that the lyrics don't sound awkward. In general, I prefer the original, though, so that makes me part of...
