A jaw-dropping mecha picture found via Danny Choo. It also included a link to an interesting site I never knew of: the Pink Tentacle . If that website was recommended from a Japanese site without the context of mecha, I would be reluctant to click it…maybe it’s because of anime/manga brainwashing (To Love-Ru and such).
Addicted to Nozomi Sasaki

I recently decided to spread my addiction of Nozomi Sasaki to unsuspecting individuals by creating a dedicated fan site. She’s a cute Japanese model, but she doesn’t seem to have much presence in English based-sites. I base this observation on the fact that Nozomi Sasaki still doesn’t have a Wikipedia article (the current one is a different Nozomi Sasaki).

pus2meong has written some humerous points to describe a frustrating aspect of blogging via Blogging Disaster. Luckily, my blog posts are typically short so even when this disaster happens, I won’t shoot myself.
“It smells good” would have been enough for me…

I was never good at writing in-depth reviews. I had attempted to write Jpop reviews a long time ago, but failed miserably when compared to experts like the author at Beyond the Sea. For example, this Yuna Ito review is written with English skill that I could only wish for.
My friend recently sent me this Comme des Garçons fragrence review, which is also written by someone who knows what they’re talking about. Comme des Garçons is a Japanese fashion label by Rei Kawakubo.
Obsessed with Sakurai Hinoki (桜井ヒノキ)

Last week I saw my first photos of a popular Japanese cosplayer known as Sakurai Hinoki (桜井ヒノキ). I used to think Kipi was the best cosplayer, but I think Sakurai Hinoki is much cuter. She is cosplaying as Shirley from Code Geass in the first photo and Rin Natusme from Little Busters in the second photo.
More photos that I found of her via Really Cute Asians.
