Japan just introduced their new JAV genre.

3 ( +3 / -0 )

Can you try out for free?

A gadget to "translate" dog barks for humans, a "babypod" that plays music inside the mother's vagina for unborn babies and the world's first self-colonoscopy method

in other words, a bunch of garbage nobody would buy

@dango. If you live in japan, after the kids are safely off to school, mothers relax watching tv. The morning programs are full of the daily topic. Talents comment on it. Today’s topic may be nimono with Kaki, a new way to peel watermelon...but go to the supermarket or Daimaru, the same product will be sold out!

mothers relax watching tv

They may watch TV, but a lot, and I am guessing most, are not relaxing while doing it. They are doing laundry, cleaning, cooking, taking care of babies etc.

I don't know if its the same in Japan as it is in the UK, If your wealthy your "eccentric" but if your poor or not well off your a ""nutter, or mad". I know that these guys do get some stick about the inventions or gadgets that they come up with, but its well worth it because, I am sure that some do go into production, and do contribute to society.

I wouldn't really say the first one is a new, brilliant idea.

But the other two, even though I'd never use them are pretty cool. I am questioning the consequences of sending sound waves up there though.....

Their inventions are definitely weird and crazy but equally important for this generation.

Anime, J-Drama, JMovie, JFashion, but mostly JAV Culture.

(About that barking thing, why don't scientists make Dogs life expectancy bit longer, at least about human life but also controlling population....I would like to see/play with my dog as a grandfather and my future grandchild can play with the same dog)
