Robo-Geisha is one crazy movie +

Bit NSFW. Well, I’ve never been one to shy away from crazy Japanese cult movies. As a matter of fact, I didn’t think I would find one that topped Tokyo Gore Police. Silly me. Leave it to the minds that created Machine Girl and Tokyo Gore Police to team up and create this over the [...]

A 3 foot horror story +

The bathroom in many homes is a very lonely room. You only visit it when you need something, and not for the pleasant atmosphere the room provides. So is it really hard to believe that the lonely bathrooms around the world holds a deep seated grudge for the humans that use it? I think not. [...]

A real Hello Kitty +

If you are reading this website right now, I would find it very hard for you to not know what Hello Kitty is. One could argue that it is one of the most well known Japanese brands right up there with Honda and Sony. This video has nothing to do with Hello Kitty other than [...]

Kids vs Zombies +

So, Andrea subliminally tricked me into purchasing Left 4 Dead on Steam, and I have been enjoying playing it for the past few days now. Funnily enough, I have to play Louis everytime I play online because well… my real name is Louis and I’m African-American. You may be wondering what zombies have to do [...]

Ichi the Killer Bento +

Gore movies are one of my many favorites from Japan. The last one I watched was Tokyo Gore Police a few months ago. What can I say about that besides it was unbelievably gory… As for the actual story, I think I could of written something better as weekend homework in the 4th grade. But [...]

Naoto Fukasawa’s Fruit Juice +

They say that the way food or drinks look plays a major influence on how well we like it. I would have to agree. These are some awesome fruit juice packaging from Industrial designer Naoto Fukasawa. Looking at the strawberry box, it looks as if the packaging may even feel like the specific fruit it [...]

For about 80 years now, inside the Glico caramel candy boxes there is a small toy called “Omake of Glico” (Small gift of Glico). It started off as little toys kids would [...]

Space Invaders Bank +

Tomy has done it again. If you are old enough to remember space invaders, this functioning bank will trigger your nostalgia reflex. Personally I remember the game, but I’m too young to remember the actual table. We did have a functioning Atari when I was a child though. Ah. Memories. This Space Invaders Bank not only can [...]

    Dragonball drawn by popular manga artists +

    This is the coolest idea I have seen regarding Dragonball in awhile. Dragonball Perfect Edition was just released in Japan, and to help celebrate, popular manga artists drew Dragonball scenes in their style. If you are lucky to have a the DVD box set, you will find a very special surprise in the form of a booklet with all of these drawings. Some of the manga-ka included are Masashi Kishimoto (Naruto), Tite Kubo (Bleach), Eiichiro Oda (One Piece), Yusuke Murata (Eye Shield 21), as well as many other popular artist. There are about 17 in total.

      I <3 this! I also think it’s funny that Goku looks like Luffy in the last image (guess Oda can’t deviate very much from his current art style =P )

      Heh. Well I think that was kinda the idea. Sure, like the earlier post I did with Deathnote, someone can copy the style and apply it to anything. However, to have the real mangaka give a character their “touch” is so cool. Look at Tite Kubo’s contribution. Trunks looks like he has the cockiness of a captain. I love it.

      I love Oda’s version. I think it is the best out of all of them actually.

      Some oh so pretty renderings of your favourite DB characters by various artists. How does Goku maintain that youthful innocence – with all the killing and all… hehe…
