Yes, girls, boys and everyone and everything in between! As you all know, normally we’re penniless as we are yet to either win the lottery, discover Gundanium, unearth pirate gold, find a suitcase full of money, and/or start a boy band. However, a kind soul has recently given us something nice, so we decided to share the love and maybe get some lulz out of it.

So, we decided to hold a small contest. Up for grabs is 200 pesos worth of Sodexho Meal and Food Passes which is accepted at quite a lot of places (still worth a meal or two, you know, hehehe) AND a Yuu Yuu Hakusho gashapon cellphone strap.

We don’t know the language, we don’t know the geography, we know only the most basic of customs, but drop us off in the middle of Japan, and we can now confidently say that there’s ONE thing we’ll know how to do.

Get a haircut and look good. Once we got that down, we’re sure the rest will follow. Oh, yeah.

Our very first guest blogger EVAR, magnetic_rose, gives us a quick crash course on Vocaloids and shares her Top 5 personal picks!

Your school’s website is probably designed with your school colors and your university mascot.

Well, The Tokyo Zokei University’s website is called Zokei Quest…

The wonderful folks from Gainax are now releasing a second wristwatch, this time based on the series’ hugely-popular resident tsundere, Asuka Sohryu. Yes. It is red, in case you didn’t like the other purple-and-green ensemble.

It’s 17 minutes of Yeon Ho-Lee playing Zerg, against David Kim playing protoss. Like the previous instalments of Blizzard’s video series, this match shows off a few new terrain features that could majorly affect gameplay, like the Xel-Naga Watchtowers, and the terrain bits that can block line of sight. Also, it features a few interesting uses of Protoss force-field technology…

It turns out that CLAMP posted on their site a confession of their newfound love for Japanese brain-breakage video sharing site, Nico Nico Douga. In the confession they admit they loved the video-lulz site so much that they did their own version of virtual idol Hatsune Miku singing Mugen no Yami (Infinite Darkness)…

You heard us right. 1:1. Full scale. 18 meters tall. The number of Japanese and Gaijin construction workers who fought and stabbed one another to get a spot on the construction team for this project and/or offered to work for free is currently unknown.

Amuro, isdatchoo??

If you’re one of those folks who are curious about, or actually prefer wearing a fundoshi for homo-erotic purposes (er…), the least we can do is point you towards correct methods of wearing the said Japanese thong.

After establishing this sort of setting, we are superficially introduced to the Filipino Heroes League, made up three guys – Kidlat Kid, Invisiboy, and their apparent leader, Flashlight. And unlike The Great American, they’re just regular dudes in makeshift costumes who happen do this for a very good reason – the chicks. That alone made them human, and thus, likeable.
