Oh, please shoot me now.
Written by Jeshii on 2009.02.17 – 01:19 -お久しぶりです。 I’m back.
So, while I was gone, Danny Choo (of Tokyo Stormtrooper fame) became a guest blogger on BoingBoing.
Now, those who are left over and are still reading this may know I’m a positive guy. I don’t make many negative blog posts since they just lead to more negativity. You may also know I love BoingBoing (especially if you read my blog shares).
But what you may not know (unless you read my Twitter) is that I generally loathe Danny Choo. So, now that I’m back from my paternal hiatus, I find my favorite blog ever featuring my generally least favorite blogger ever.
Makes me so sad.
So, do you guys have an opinion on Danny Choo, one way or another. I mean, he had the guys to expose the whole 兄貴 meme on ニコニコ動画… But, again, I didn’t mention it for a reason… and the fact that he did mention it makes me think we are destined to be opposites in the world of foreign Japan loving dorks.
Anyway, enough of this. Let’s see what kind of new ニコ’s there are since I’ve been gone…
Update: I hate my life. Now he has the ability to embed nicovideos on his site. I lose forever.

Tokyo Game Show Babes Round-up
Written by Jeshii on 2008.10.09 – 13:48 -
‘Tis the season for booth babes, or as they are called in Japanese, “Companions.”
So here is the round up of galleries so far:
- @nifty has probably the best set so far.
- Yomiuri’s Gallery. They say they are introducing the booths themselves, but when you see the thumbnails, you’ll know the truth. While this Capcom girl is probably my favorite, I gotta say, this Square Enix chick is hot!
- Kotaku‘s collection seems like it was taken with an iPhone. But they are posting newer, better pics all the time on their flickr stream.
- Jiji.com’s collection so far is pretty fetching.
- Joystiq has yet to post an obligatory babe collection. For shame.

Tokyo Game Show!
Written by Jeshii on 2008.10.08 – 23:47 -
Tokyo Game Show begins today (10/9 JST) for businesses in Japan, and opens to the public on Saturday!
I was just thinking, “Wow I can’t believe one year has gone by already.” And then I was thinking, “You know you are pretty far gone when you measure years by TGS.”
It’s actually very affordable at 1,200円 (yen) per day, assuming you don’t have to tack $1000 for air fare. >< ;
For the rumors, go check out Kotaku’s round-up. What I really want to go see is the GMT music show going on Saturday night. With しょこたん (Shokotan) and YMCK… It’s going to be ヲタク (otaku) paradise.
Watch the videos after the jump for a taste of the artists.
