Have you tried Japanese curry before? I was surprised at how good it tasted when I tried it for the first time.
Japanaese curry now tastes better than before because the otaku business minds have stuck the word "Moe" on the front of this "Moe Curry" product and stuck a moe maid on the packaging.
The makers aim to make this product an Akihabara souvenir. Each pack costs 500 yen.
Via Akiba Keizai.
They previously tried "Football Curry" before...

If you are interested in reading about life in Japan, seeing photos taken daily around Tokyo, like Japanese subculture (anime, manga, figures, Dollfies) then you may want to start delving into the Japan or Figure categories for a start or have a gander at all photo articles.

    my mom would make japanese curry, so it's one of my staples ^_^

    i had some curry at what was it ... @home? anyhow, one of the maid cafes in akihabara... was not expecting a picture to be drawn in ketchup on my meal. nor the ...was it jam? some sort of sweet berry flavored thing on the rice. i hope moe curry comes with neither ^^;;

        lol, I spent about a minute trying to figure out that the first word was "fruit", and then I noticed that someone already translated it >_>

          Don't know what it is to. I usually say, if you know Portuguese, Spanish, English and French you are done in life since they are the most spoken language in the world, you can go anywhere without a problem. Only need to perfect my French and my extra language Japanese and Italian.

    Japanese curry is amazing. Tonkatsu curry is probably my favorite, though its even good by itself with rice. Though the packaged stuff here isn't amazing, it can still fill the craving for it.

    I love curry. The way my mom does is completely different of traditional curry rice from Japan... but I liked both.
    In my trip to Japan, it was what I ate most, even though I also like almost anything in japanese cuisine... sushi, sashimi, udon, you name it.

    I also had a delicious pizza in Japan.
    Yeah, I love food and am kinda fat. :P
