夏の東京

Nothing like walking around Central london with some friends on a nice hot day with some pepsi XD!

What a wonderful summer some people are having...

There's nothing like sitting in a classroom for an eternity and then going home and studying for another eternity.

Nothing beats... Having my daughter Horo watching herself in action in Ookami to Koushinryou II alongside me on Saturday morning...

I'll reenact the above event tomorrow (Saturday) morning... XD

haha that cat looks like its from a tamagochi ^^

Calpis wonder what it taste like Cow Piss???

Nothing beats...

- making a very good batch of fried rice - and then eating it happily.
- tasting a most excellently ripe batch of kimchi.
- sleeping in on an overcast, comfortably cool weekend morning.
- curling up with a good book and a tall glass of lemonade.
- writing a perfect sentence for an occasion (work, school, fiction, nonfiction).

Nothing beats a nice afternoon with friends, followed by games, anime, and posting blogs before bed...XD Guess that's my version anyways...

It's raining here for two weeks straight :/

Nothing beats going to Japan to study in March and then continue with my life there.

Simpler:Nothing beats working hard for your dream and then acheiving success.

Nothing beats entering an endless recursion of time.

Nothing beats entering an endless recursion of time.

Nothing beats entering an endless recursion of time.

had a calpis float last weekend. not bad.

Nothing beats a slow and tiring afternoon like having my cappuccino while reading a good book at a street side coffee shop.

Oh, so that's the mascot for the drink....i was wondering about the figure i saw the other day and now i know where it's from...hehehehehe

"calpis".....hehehehaha reminded me of one of the DC member's post about it..."calpis = cow piss" hahahahaahahah...;P

"Nothing beats the hot summer heat by taking an all expense paid trip to Antarctica." >.<

I love Calpis, especially the peach flavored ones.

Nothing beats screaming off the streets of Akihabara when speeding over 590km/h when the temperatures reach over 65 degrees celsius. Right before the next monster thunderstorm

Nothing beats Sheng Long.

nothing beats... lazing at home surfing dc.com and facebook.

Nothing beats having the feeling of wanting to go back to the place you live so bad just because you got bored of the place you've always wanted to go to....and trying to make sense of this sentence -.-

Speaking of which I prefer Pocari Sweat and Yakult a little bit more than Calpis

Nothing beat watching firework with girls in yukata on summer.

Nothing beats sitting in a warm home curled up in a blanket while watching through the window as the snow falls in the winter.

Nothing beats walking around Manila on a freakin' hot summer day with a bottle of ice cold Pocari Sweat! ^^

Nothing beats a good root beer float

mmm caplis so good but so bad for you, a few bottles and you'll be feeling some diabetic shock

oh, Nothing beats spending the summer eating some sweet Pho soup

Nothing beats... a well made Negroni (and lets face it: it's so simple there's no excuse for getting it wrong), good mates and some low late-night jazz.

Oddly, that ad does not make me ever want to try Calpis ^^;

nothing beats getting the desired results for something you work.
nothing beats having a suddenly acquired gift in the hands (like a figure xD).
nothing beats like going to stay in japan for some time.
nothing beats like getting to drive a supersonic vehicle.
nothing beats like getting to kiss a cute girl and getting a slap in the face in return.

i could go on though....

I should go try Calpis one of these days. I missed the opportunity to buy it when walking by a shop selling Japanese snacks. Toro's a cute mascot, too bad I don't own a PS2 to play Dokodemo Issho (I think).

The weather here this week has been pretty wet though. It's a great excuse for me to not do any painting.

Little streets like that always look so intimate and inviting...not so with streets around here

Nothing beats....being alive...

Nothing beats...

- completing the final level of the game
- relaxing on the weekend
- being with my family
- working on a project
- finishing all my work before the designated time

Nothing beats reminiscing in your childhood and comparing it to today in the cool breeze of the beach.

Nothing beats having a birthday suit

Nothing beats going to summer school for 5 hours a day...

On another note, I need to go try out some Calpis!

Nothing beats receiving free figures :3

Nothing beats .. the summer ... other than the winter:P Well, actually the alternation of seasons is the best thing.

That’s a great photo!!!!
Japan is such a magical place.... for me it is
I know my when you live in a place for a long time things seem so normal.
But through new eyes everything looks just so interesting and fascinating!
And that’s what I love about Japan!!!I find everything interesting and full of wonder, even just a common street!
Thanks!

Nothing beats receiving multiple shipments on the same day from two different Japanese retailers, for it happened to me. I received boxes from Amazon.co.jp and HLJ today, July 10, 2009.

Nothing beats.... me not following the nothing beats theme of this thread!!

oh well!

at least Im no conformist!

nothing beats.....nothing beats.... ... its just doesn't!

Nothing beats coming back home after a long underway.

Nothing beats coming back to your hometown after being gone for ages.

Nothing beats going from winter in one hemisphere to winter in another hemisphere. ^^;

Nothing like a good swig of PocariSweat after a good day's work!

Nothing beats staying up for the whole night and sleeping the weekends off...

Nothing beats a good cup of Milo! :D

Nothing beats an ice cold glass of lemonade on the back porch on a hot summer day.

Nothing beats coming back from the gym to an ice-cold Suntory CC Lemon straight from the refrigerator. But if I had to pick something
Calpis .. I'd go for the Calpis Ice (frozen sorbet style Calpis)

Nothing beats... sleeping under triple layer blankets on a cold, wet winters night.

nothing beats strolling through tokyo, at all :-)

Nothing beats after pulling an all nighter reading manga.

Nothing beats having a three day weekend.

I live in the UK and the latest Anime is always 2 - 3 years old when it arrives in the shops here .. I order mostly from Amazon USA so:

"Nothing beats the sound of the package from Amazon hitting the floor as it comes through my letterbox"

Nothing beats eating watermelon and listening to your furin when sunset hits

Nothing beats playing getting 60 kills without dying in Killzone 2 online (PS3) :P

Nothing beats a sunny saturday at Liberdade district at São Paulo. [but I'm far away from there and it isnt sunny at all lol]

Nothing beats sitting at home behind your computer. And I wonder how Calpis tastes. ^_^

Nothing beats summer vacation. It's nice and cool over here and no school. :/

is it only me or Calpis actually sounds like Cal, taking a piss? XD

Nothing Beats TORO CHAN!!!! *grabby hands* lol

i must say i despised calpis water when i was in japan a couple months back. Aquarius to me is superior.

nothing like walking around Toronto with a bottle of Coke!! ^^muahahh

I'm extremely let down and disappointed. All that water splashing next to her...that hose...she even JUMPED into a POOL...and not a single wet-shirt shot? xP

Is Toro also Calpis mascot ? I saw Toro in Calpis fruit flavor ads in Thailand a long time ago. Now Calpis ads in Thailand isn't featured Toro anymore.

In Thailand we have just tasted bottles of Calplis Water for 3 - 4 months. Taste great but many Thai people are hate it.

All Calpis products are my favorite drink.

nothing beats... uh... nothing.

:D!

Isn't that Sony's mascot cat that was in the CM? They both look very similiar..

Would kill for a Calpis right now..

haaa... *relaxed breath* it's summer! here is summer but it's still rainy season too so it rains and sun comes out after (really hot btw) but still the worst hasn't come when we reach september it's gonna be humid and hot a lethal combination for fat ppl (like me) lol i'm going to sweat like a pig ;_; but still is cool because girls use light clothing *drolls* lol

Nothing beats going home for the summer, and finally getting to eat Mom's cooking again.

Nothing beats AIR CONDITIONING.

I love Calpis water!! I drank it all the time in Tokyo.

Nothing beats purely nothing.
Because once something is introduced to nothing, nothing no longer exists.
Now, that's something.

Nothing beats working in an office with air conditioning over the Summer.

Nothing can beat the power of love. ^^;;

I want Calpis!

I`m in Shinjuku right now and it`s a beautiful day. I wanted to take this opportunity to ask Danny-san (if he reads this...) if you can let me know if your in Shibuya, Akihabara or anywhere else in Tokyo this week so we could meet up. I know you are really busy, that<s why I don<t ask you to change any plans or anything ,I would go to where you are. I brought you a little something from Quebec, Canada. I hope this get<s to you Danny-san! Sore ja, mata ne!

It looks like the server transfer went well, go Danny!

Nothing beats kicking it back it home with your boyfriend and some Bugles.

nothing beats being over lvl 9000.

Nothing beats the perfect shot!

Ehh? I have to think carefully if I can only have one "nothing beats-" statement. ^^;

In the summer context, nothing beats spending my summer in Japan - surrounded by yukata girls in festivals or swimsuits on za beach! :D

nothing beats a cool summer and a warm winter

Nothing beats...

-a nice trip overseas
-warm food/soup on a cold day
-Dimsum and Noodles
-Getting free stuff (like figures =D)
-getting that accomplished feeling after a load of hard work

Nothing beats relaxing in a rotenburo while it's lightly snowing ^^

Nothing beats the summertime since it is anime convention season. :3

Personally, a 7-11 slurpee is the best drink to keep cool with. Do they have those in Japan?

dan, i reckon you pretty much nailed it for me too. just swap calpis with aquarius and its a deal

I've never had Calpis before even though there have been many occasions where I could have gotten it. I wonder why I've never cared to try it.

Japan must be really hot in the summer time. I cannot imagine someone who would not have an A/C unit in their homes or vehicles.

hmmmm still looking "anywhere" to find calpis . . . no luck yet

LoL is that a Calpis Pocketstation I see in the commercial? I personally prefer Ramune over Calpis any day :P

not too crazy about summer. i like winter more, but then again winter means no mizugi in the beaches

Nothing beats the time when you can do whatever you want.
Nothing beats a good icecream in a hot summer afternoon.
Nothing beats fulfiling your ambitions.

Reminded me of a clip on youtube where they were offering Calpis to gaijins and they were like what the cowpiss? major lol

For Danny again. Sorry but it seems the ``reply`` fonction doesn`t work on the internet explorer of the hotel. I`m in Tokyo till thursday so please let me know if your going out somewhere sometime. Until then, take care.

too bad summer ended here already :|

Nothing beats a cold bottle of Lipton Brisk iced tea on a hot day. (Sorry, Calpis!)

DC, You take suck cool pics of side streets in Tokyo. I never realized so many streets aren't much more than glorified alleyways.

YOU SHOULD TRY WALKING IN THE PARK NEAR ME IT IS BOILING.

Nothing beats DAIGO UMEHARA!

Nothing beats sitting here surfing the net whilst you get someone to go out and buy you pocky! (IN ENGLAND) ^^

nothings beats swimming in the ocean!!!
or jumping from the jetty into the sea!
:D

Nothing beats me like my bully...

Haha I can't take that name seriously...

Nothing beats a company name we can all make jokes about.

Meanwhile, everything beats internet explorer 6 -- everything.

nothing beats staying at home all summer waking up late when everyone is eating dinner

I want to try it sometime.

I was just reading Blood+ and Calpis was mentioned in it... I didn't realise it was water.
Fancy that.

でも、今年の夏なんか蒸し暑いかしら？
ぼくは京都にいますけどね。。。。

I love Calpis water too, I drink it every single day when I come to Japan during the summer :D My friend told me that it contains lots of sugar so I should start drinking diet Calpis but just like any other diet drinks, I did not like it and I won't stop drinking regular Calpis water!

There is also the premium Calpis water too but it sorta taste too concentrated :P

Hmm, Calpis...
But still, nothing beats the intense summer heat XP

Nothing beats TRUE Happiness? How's that?

Nothing beats floating around in a rubber boat, surrounded by 80 other rubber boats, filled with people dressed as pirates, drinking beer and enjoying the summer heat.

Nothing beats... well.. i don't really know...

I really can't believe myself because I still managed somehow to never drink calpis yet... and I want to try it but everytime I have the chance I just don't (please beat me)!!

Nothing beats being in Japan ;_; buu >.< I don't like Calpis I perfer Qoo LOL or Ramune

Nothing beats a cold 20 degree Celsius hotel room after a humid stroll through the streets of Kyoto.

I would agree, but personally I perfer Pocari Sweat.
