Something weird

Ahhh, nothing fun to write today. So I picked something weird. Look at this fat rabbit, it's cute? Funny? Weird? But the photo has some fantastic charm.

I didn't know this: Moetan is a series of English language study aids for Otaku. You can hear the samples on this official site. And it will be made into the TV anime in July...For me, it looks weird.

Tokyo Dome is the home ground of the Tokyo Giants. They have a Monday special beer ticket. This is the official site with some retro mood song which we call "Mood Kayo" and here is the movie of that song...funny but weird.

This is "Faux Repair" plate. They say "notes: in the Japanese tradition of drawing attention to a flaw in the glaze by filling it with gold." Hum, it will mean "Kintsugi." We say a href="http://www.anagama.co.uk/5-2_fakes.html" target="_blank">"Kintsugi" is not just repair, but to add some gold makes a new appearance and new worth for ceramics, so I understand their idea. But I can't agree with the price: $550... Art? Design?

I have muscle pain because of Billy's Bootcamp. The DVD is really really popular now and we can't buy the DVD without waiting for three weeks. In the official store, Billy's band costs $15 or so, but in Yahoo Japan auction it costs around $50 now. This is a part of the Japanese TV ad. Hmm, it looks like magic. But getting popular means he has to be a toy of the Internet. I suppose Billy will come to Japan because of this crazy boom. People need exercise, especially desk workers like me. BUT what do you think about this??...weird.

I do Billy's Boot Camp once a week. It helps me keep my body lean and my brain strong; mind and body.

You're quite welcome! Aren't they adorable, though? They live in the mountains, in a very harsh climate, and they pose that way in the morning when it's freezing cold---they are trying to warm their little bodies in the sun.

Hi there --- That's not a rabbit---it's a Vizcacha from South America. They are more close related to Chinchillas. This photograph was probably photoshopped, since they are not domesticated pet animals. FWIW!

My goodness...even rabbits get obese nowadays!

I love the fat rabbit! It reminds me of a tiny Totoro. :-)

Gabriel Thank you for answering. Yes peple call Yomiuri Kyojingun (giants), my Grandma loved the team, they were so strong BEFORE.

Bshock it's true, but no Asian or no Japanese mixed our asian martial arts to such type of execise which we can try at home. I think his idea is great.

Don,
The Tokyo Giants are actually the Yomiuri Giants. Yomiuri is the most read newspaper in Japan. From Wikipedia: "the team is officially known by the name of its corporate owner rather than the name of the city it plays in."
Sorry Mari for answering, but I thought I would help. I have time this morning at the office. (^_^)

Who are the Tokyo giants? Are they a baseball team like the famous Hanshin Tigers?

[bshock]

The whole Japanese boom around Billy Blanks confuses me a little. He supposedly derived his exercise routines from Asian martial arts, and now these have been shipped back to Asia? I think that would be a bit like Americans starting baseball clubs that used only Japanese baseball rules.
