Child Exploitation

Sat, 3 Nov 2007 16:57:43 +0900

K11 Project is releasing a series of movies designed to make us more aware of the terrible atrocities going on around asia. The first of the films is called Holly and will be released soon. I hope it makes it all the way to Japan, if not you should probably just download it. Spread the word, and do what you can.

I felt moved after reading about another project designed to actually take action and rescue the children, illegally or not. Most charities get the kids out of the brothels, only to have them recaptured within weeks or their family to resell them. The Blood Rose and White Orchid campaign hope to build an island to take the children and rehabilitate them. Please support them in any way you can.

Kitty Does Guns

Say hello to my little friend ~ K-AK47!

The world should note the hand-crocheted shoulder-stock muffler and the anodized titanium plating.

Goes perfectly with the "ideal for town and country shopping sprees" kitty APC,
I'm sure.

A perfect gift for the young lady of the house. A bargain at only $1072.95!

Opapi! Kojima Yoshi takes the Stage---

Fri, 5 Oct 2007 11:49:32 +0900

Here he is, nigh naked and bouncing to the beat of his own demented drummer. Kojima Yoshio is the new hot thing in the Gennoukai, or World of Entertainment. He dances, he gesticulates madly while screaming, he raps, and he rolls his eyes in a terrifying and amusing manner. His main schtick is screaming `What the #@!# does that have to do with it?!!!` after saying a short and silly story. He must be seen to be appreciated, and he MUST be appreciated. This is the pinnacle of variety comedy, a one-man fusion of manzai, gesture-based gags, and rapid rap. Pure comic Gold.

New Sanrio characters

Sat, 22 Sep 2007 15:58:00 +0900

OMG! Kitty-lovers everywhere rejoice! Sanrio have just announced some new characters ~ Welcome Ulloromannic (wtf is that?!)

They may indeed be super cute in a devillish kind of way, but should they really be hanging out with Kitty-chan?

According to me at my new personal blog, this might be their official story, perhaps:

Sometime Kitty get really sad about be cute and happy all a time. That's when she visit to her goth friend Berry and Cherry, and do some crack. Together we enjoying happy sacrifice of small child.

Nova saga continues

Fri, 14 Sep 2007 14:55:20 +0900

According to one troubled Kyoto employee, staff haven't been paid for this month. Could be an indication that they are indeed going into liquidation soon. Word from management has claimed this months wages are delayed until the 19th at the earliest, but who knows? Is there a punchline to this joke? Doubt it.

Please take a moment to appreciate my artists impression of what will happen to the Nova bunny. Do you know how hard it is to draw blood trails on a trackpad? <--------------this hard--------->

Shinzo Abe's Blogging up a Storm

Sat, 8 Sep 2007 13:34:03 +0900

Japan's Prime Minister is using the English skills he procured while going to toga parties at USC to share his innermost thoughts with the adoring public.

So far he has covered such topics as Kobayashi's stunning loss in the hot dog eating competition, the nuclear reactor leak, comfort women, Koizumi's sex appeal, his Jenna Bush crush, and American erections.

Best read from earliest to current.

Multiple Simultaneous Terrorist Attacks!

Sun, 15 Jul 2007 11:27:44 +0900

Some of you may remember a while back some talk about photographing and fingerprinting foreigners visiting Japan... Well it's here finally! In effect by November everywhere in Japan, special computerized machines at immigration will scan your face and hands. I hope my ugly mug breaks their machine. The reason is due to the rise in "multiple simultaneous terrorist attacks" throughout the world. The computers will cross-referencing your prints and photo with a list of suspicious persons.

The video explains it all, but you'll have to follow the link as the government makes it really hard to steal:

New Immigration Procedure Video

Also, and this is the kicker - it will identify foreigners that keep trying to get in illegally. ie, on repeat tourist visas etc. Holy sushi-roll, ManBat! That means YOU!

"What if I refuse to be fingered or photographed?"

"If you refuse to be fingerprinted or photographed, you will be denied entry and ordered to leave ^_^

"Ok~! I'll pass it on to my friends too!"

New Ghibli Movie - Iblard Jikan

Wed, 4 Jul 2007 12:22:16 +0900

Released on July 4th as straight to DVD and Bluray, Ghibli's latest movie is a partnership with the artist Inoue, who also worked on the arty sequences in "Whisper of the Heart". Details about the plot of Iblard are sketchy, and the best I could find was:

A project about Inoue’s imaginary world Iblard. Fragments of forgotten memories... Nostalgic days that are sure to come again... Iblard is made of such elements.

You can check out the trailer and try to decipher more youself, over at the official website @ iblardjikan.jp
