Curvy martial arts yarn Maken-Ki! has a huge display at Akihabara retailer Tora no Ana, giving pedestrians an eyeful of character Haruko Amaya.
Late last week, Maken-Ki! cosplayers were hired to hand out tissues to promoted the anime’s opening theme song.
Some parts of Tokyo have window displays showcasing designer clothes. Others feature exotic sports cars. Akihabara has jubblies. Go figure.
Originally a manga, the Maken-Ki! anime debuted last month. Inevitable video game adaptations, no doubt, to come.

Look – The Japan of Today is unquestionably better than the Japan of Yesteryear. Japan has radically changed over the past 60 years, and I think we can all agree that it has largely changed for the better (getting rid of fascism and emperor worship was the right way to go, I think we can all agree).
Having said that: If I was an elderly person in Japan and I saw this, I’d probably stare at it for a second or two then wander off to the nearest bridge and jump off it.

If you were an elderyl woman, you’d see all of this happening right near you and pretend that you didn’t.
