insanenekoTwo blogs:
Ramblings From Japan is a new blog with pics and commentary on Japan.
Hello Kitty Hell is a blog featuring the scary variety of Hello Kitty merchandise, via the husband of a Hello Kitty fanatic.
Newspaper articles:
Tomiko Van (singer of the disbanded Do as Infinity) singing in Japanese production of Broadway musical "BKLYN". Never heard of this one, but I wouldn't mind seeing her in a musical...
The second coming of Shikao Suga chronicles how his current popularity is actually his second big break. Huh. I only knew him through anime songs and had totally missed his first time around in 1997.
Ikebukuro 'maidens' say being geek is chic is another outsider looking into the world of "yaoi." These articles always seem to mish and mash and mix everything up. ^^; BTW, anyone read the manga "Tonari no 801 [Yaoi]-chan" (My neighbor Yaoi-chan) by Ajiko Kojima the article mentions? Apparently it's a blog?
Looked up "fujoshi" for the fun of it, found an amusing interview with the boyfriend of a fujoshi here.
Toranoana main store having posters stating how they swear to carve the words of the great Ms. Ohno in their hearts, raise their power of delusions each and every day and stock all items to respond to every passion of their customers made me laugh. There's something earnestly tongue in cheek about it all. ^^ Ohno is the character in Genshiken who declares "there are no girls who hate gays (are homophobic?)."
Checking out the Japanese wiki entry on boy's love, I for the first time heard the term "yaoi ana" (yaoi hole). According to the entry, the receptacles of self-lubricating ukes and mpreg fall into this category as the anus can't really do either of these things.
