I might have a little more insight than most, maybe from watching anime over the years, because I find these pretty damn funny.

Shoulda come to Winnipeg last weekend, AiCon was going on and there were all sorts of folks dressed as their favorite anime characters. It took all I could not to throat punch most of them for being retarded.

I stayed at a hotel once, and there was a random Anime convention being hosted there.

The entire fucking hotel smelled like B.O. and people were playing with 5 foot cardboard swords all night.

Super gay.

I don't see myself doing the whole cosplay thing, but I guess those that do are at least being creative and getting out and doing something they like, as long as it doesn't rule there life. At least there not pale and pasty WoW players, whose lives seem ruled by it, that only get out long enough to buy the new expansion pack.
To each his own I guess.

all i gotta say...shinjuku kabaroke....ive never been solicitated so many times in my life....

but yeah japanese humor maybe a bit strange if you dont have some sort of background to it...

on a side note...i missed my last train back to my place so i slept at an internet cafe before i had to go to class...actually pretty damn comfortable. 13 bucks (1300 yen) gives you 6 hours in a private room and lal the drinks your want. 400 yen (4 dollars) gives you a shower...pretty nice i must say.

anyways if you guys find yourself in japan up till september 15th...hit me up.

second second side note...drinking is mad cheap...2 bucks for pint glass of vodka ginger ale...unheard of (at least in chicago)...

[theoblivious]

its because asians dont have that fold in their eyes. thats highly regarded among asians..especially koreans (no offense...i think)

Sounds like a Rabu Hoteru (Love Hotel). You sure you didn't hook up with somebody.

I'm kind of envious, I've always wanted to go to Japan and explore the mysterious orient.

[VDub]

[theoblivious]

love hotel is around 8000 yen...fucking expensive just to bring a girl back...kinda makes sex complicated you know?

guess thats why there are internet cafes...haha...jk.

So, listen to any sweet J-Pop lately?

[theoblivious]

for real what part? let me know my number in japan is (011 81 (minus the zero on the 045 if you call from the US))0459015378.

[theoblivious]

I actually dont listen to much music here as far as jpop goes...im really into techno. Shinichi Osawa is pretty sick. im going to be going here next week to see lupe.

get this...cover is 30 bucks plus a free drink...table service is 20 bucks a head....versus 200 dollar bottle to sit at a table. I love Japan.

side note: club has 3 different dance floors and a pool.

[theoblivious]

from what i understand jim is that is a common surgery done in asia because lots of asians dont have the double lid.

[theoblivious]

on a side note...japanese girls have fucked up teeth...though its becoming less so. finally understood a dental plan

I've actually come to like a few Japanese hip-hop artists/groups, some regular and some instrumental. Nujabes, Fat Jon, Force of Nature, Tsutchie and Rip Slyme are some of what I like, it's a damn site better than most american hop-hop nowadays. :icon_thumright:

[theoblivious]

word thats cool. so you speak japanese?

[ichibankilla]

No not really, I just like the way there music sounds, they do throw some english lyrics in there also though. It's like listening to Rammstein, I don't really know german but I like there music.:)
Although, I've been thinking about giving Rostta Stone a try.
