My name’s Louis. I am just your ordinary otaku with a healthy addiction to Black Black gum, anime, Milky candy, and Japanese drama/comedy shows. I am a Japanese pop culture blogger at xorsyst.com. If you want to stay up to date with what's going on in Japan, check out my site!
Who I'd like to meet: Anyone interested in anime, manga, cosplay and Japanese pop culture! If you're Otaku, you're OK with me.
Recommended DVD:
Have you ever watched a movie that you wish would never end? That's exactly how I felt watching Kamakaze Girls. I would recommend this movie to anyone that loves wild, crazy, and FUNNY Japanese movies. Click here to read my full review!
This convention is actually still fairly new. . . BUT. . . it's got a little something for everyone and, for the price, it's a great deal on a great weekend! ^_^
xD i figured as seeing you have Janicon on your top 8. Are you going this year?
Ok, so we had a Japanese exchange studet at my school this last year and i tried this cookie she had. Mmhmm and she told me it had octopus in it. It was pretty spicy so I would assume it had wasabi in it. It was kind of like a thin rice cookie. I've been scouring the internet and can't seem to find any thing remotely similar. Think you could help? I'm most likely going to have to have it sent from Japan.
KAIDAN is the term used for the Japanese ghost stories, and, extensively, for the J-Horror culture. The Buddhist moralizing stories were rapidly transformed into international shockers; people wanted more frightening monstrosities and oddness, with no direct connection with the Western horror.
Manga, anime, movies and the subcultures developed around them competed in shicks and panic. If you really want to know why on the Japanese horror movies is written 18+, take a look at the next issue of Otaku Magazine. Nevertheless, is our duty to warn you that all who looked inside certain pages of this issue have disappeared shortly after. Still, it might be just a story to send the children to sleep for good.
