Mini Stop is great with their places to sit and eat, wish they had more branches, though other Konbini are starting to copy their chair area

Posted in: Yokohama Chinatown to offer Wi-Fi using global Wi-Fi service, FON See in context

Japan's wifi is pathetic compared to smaller nearby Asian countries like Taiwan and South Korea. This is a step in the right direction but more needs to be done.

Sigh clops your friends are wrong, Netflix jp has all of its original sows except HOC which is still on hulu jp but Im guessing will be back to Netflix soon.

The first month is free so you can check it out and if the selection isn't good enough quit without paying anything.

Btw Amazon Prime TV Japan is starting up also later this month

Posted in: Chasing the K-pop dream See in context

Jpop doesnt seem to understand the concept of practicing how to sing and dance or get pretty members (often purposely picking average looking girls), at least not if AKB is any barometer of actual talent.

There should be fines for this kind of disregard. I'm sure there are fines for it already in some places in Japan depending on the place.

Posted in: Goriki hopes voice acting role in 'X-Men' film will lead her to Hollywood See in context

She can keep hoping but it is never going to happen. She's not that pretty or even a good actress.

Kikuchi Rinko isn't gorgeous but is an excellent actress. Okamoto Tao isn't very experienced but speaks English well and is is very beautiful.

Posted in: Hikaru Utada to marry Italian on May 23 See in context

Hmm so maybe it is better to marry a guy who is 9 years younger than one who is 20 years older, but I doubt other Japanese idols will learn that lesson.

Will Koizumi try to make a run for PM again if Hosokawa wins the Mayorship?

One of Japan's greatest actresses, unappreciated in her homeland but she is having the last laugh.

Too bad it has the same name but it tastes horribly watered down here in Japan.

Crazy how much press coverage this story is getting. If they think the food they ate was subpar than what about the food coming out of the Fukushima Nuclear power plant area? But I guess that is just boring.

Posted in: New Ghibli film brings 40-year-old tune to top of music charts See in context

The song fits the melancholy tone of the movie. Unfortunately the score to the movie doesn't work as well, really clashing with that tone at various points.

Kpop is doing more than fine in the rest of the world besides Japan so I don't think they are losing sleep over it.

Posted in: S Korea's travel industry smarting from sharp drop-off of Japanese visitors See in context

Hawaii is great besides the fact that it is about 8 times as far as Korea and about 10 times the price and the locals there can be just as racist as some Japanese or Koreans sometimes
