Video: Getting On a Crowded Train in Japan
Last Updated on Tuesday, 17 August 2010 05:22 Written by DarkKnightH20 Saturday, 21 August 2010 10:00
This is a video from Japan. The trains are very crowded with people sometimes. I mean…VERY crowded. Not all of their train stations are like the one in this video, but still, imagine how cramped and uncomfortable that would be. Not to mention smelly and full of germs. Keep in mind that the YouTube video says “China” in the title, but it’s actually from Japan — confirmed by both YouTube comments AND Enki! TY Enki!

Modern Warfare Bunnies
Last Updated on Tuesday, 20 July 2010 04:31 Written by servbot_kill Tuesday, 20 July 2010 09:58
Found this Japanese CG series online, “Cat Shit One”. In a nutshell, Modern Warfare with anthropomorphic animals instead of people. This isn’t Saturday morning kid show crap though, this is actually pretty well done and funnily enough the opening presentation kinda resembles the beginning of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots.
“Cat Shit One” is based off of a three-volume manga series by Motofumi Kobayashi of the same name, although the manga was released in the United States under the name “Apocalypse Meow“. The setting of the manga was originally the Vietnam War, and the nationalities involved in the conflict were all given animal stand-ins (making for a uniquely Japanese form of hilariously innocent political incorrectness). That said, for the CG series, the creators updated the look with the modern-day parallel, the Middle Eastern conflicts.

That’s right you heard me. As part of the celebration of Windows 7, the Burger King will be offering a Windows 7 Whopper with SEVEN Patties. This costs 777 yen, which is equivalent to $8.50.

Looks kind of awkward right? This is no joke and is a real photo. I don’t know about you, but I am a little disappointed they didn’t offer this product in the United States.
