Japanese Government Made An Anime For Adults

Go! Go! Election

Go! Go! Election

All of local cities take place coming of age ceremonies every year for 20 years old people in Japan. And at the last one, Japanese government distributed an anime named “Go! Go! Election”. It means 20 years old people got this anime. You can see what’s going on Japanese education system.

From NicoVideo.

From YouTube for people who can’t watch on NicoVideo.

This video became really popular among NicoVideo users and one of an amazing guy ported to NES. This is not just a video, he also published a ROM image for NES.

iPhone released in Japan

Finally, iPhone released here in Japan. However I can’t buy it today, I’m in Yodobashi Camera Umeda now :P

Just came here to see the release event of the iPhone. Here is a video of the historical countdown with Dante Carver well known as "Yosou GUY" on TV commercials of SoftBank and a VP guy. Maybe he is a VP of SoftBank Mobile I think but not sure.

You can see a gap between US and Japan over the audience. Only a MC and some staff of the Yodobashi Camera are shouting. But don’t worry, all of us are excited.

There’re no more numbered ticket to get it here but I already reserved one at another place.

Hey, if you’re in Japan especially around Osaka, you should watch TV news tonight and find a guy wearing an orange shirt and a black sunglasses. It’s me!

Fireworks show at Osaka

Last week I went to see the “Yodogawa Hanabi-Taikai” one of the famous fireworks show here in Osaka Jpanan.
In the day, fuge amount of people gatherd to the same area between buildings from anywhere around Osaka. It’s just like entire Japanese in one place and all of them are crammed in like sardines.
You know Japan is not a broad land especially Osaka. Additionally, Japanese like to gather at the same place. Can you imagine what will happen?
The answer is this. I hate to jumped into the sea of people like a photo below.
Tenjin Matsuri 2007 02
I took this at the “Tenjin Matsuri”, the end of july. Horrible.
But fortunately, my friend lives in the good point to see the fireworks show. Yeah!
I upload some movies here. Despite the pit of too crowded place, fireworks awaken our emotions.

Some of fireworks draw a picture of characters in animations or something. Cute isn’t it?

Filan part. MUST SEE last few minutes. Shocks of explosions were honking noisy sirens.
Hope, everyone enjoy movies!
