This actually looks pretty close to our bed division as well. Just add some remarks on how the actual sleeping zone is still too small ^^
-
Jos
Yeah, it’s 100% accurate for us. Seems like this goes for most people.

Hmm, when your blog is down for a whole week without anyone noticing maybe it’s time to rethink strategies.

Johnny
I noticed a few days ago but thought if it was serious you might have said something. So I just waited ^^

People only want free consumate content or attention to self =3-
Jos

The Japanese entertainment industry never ceases to surprise me oO

Uuuh, stuff changed! Blue box in the link-category and a separate page for replying
-
Jos
Aye, there was a new update for the theme.
-
Jos
Replying is still the same for me btw. o.O
-
Johnny
Funny, for me as well again. But I swear, I was sent to a different page earlier.
-
Jos
There’s a lot of funky javascript going on on this page, so it’s possible that the page wasn’t fully loaded yet when you hit the reply button.

More on topic: I can’t navigate the page the article links to so I’m curious what the fuss is about, in the pic shown they just look like normal girls.
-
Johnny
If you scroll down the page you’ll see a picture of one of the girls pretty quick. You can enter the gallery by clicking on it. They actually do look like normal girls, only a few teeth of theirs are a little bit out of line. Nothing special (especially not in Japan), but the marketing idea behind the group is.

Jos
I thought the girls with brown makeup to the point you’d think they fell asleep on a tanning bed for a week was bad enough. o.O

Waking up from your own coughing all night is annoying.

The new face of the official Pokémon Fanclub Japan xD
-
Jos
Holy crap, you start popping up everywhere. What does the text say?
That’s pretty damn awesome though.-
Johnny
Nah, it’s just advertisement for these new small Pokémon plushies. We were asked what we’d do with these, if we got one and I said ‘I’d decorate my room with it’. So actually not really special, but funny

How collective memory saved lives during the tsunami in Japan:

-
Johnny
While I never delved that deep into the topic, I definitely felt that the past and traditions (and with them collective memories) are much more alive in Japan than they are in Germany and probably more European countries. Although, of course, there’s still a huge gap between the big cities and more rural communities. I doubt that in Tokyo many will remember lessons from the big Kanto Earthquake about a 100 years ago.
-
Jos
Makes sense yeah. It’s a weird concept once you start thinking more and more about it. For example, I’ve been reading an ‘what to do when the shit hits the fan’ book and it’s amazing how much knowledge is in there for basic day to day survival without modern amenities that would be lost on any city dweller (me included). But if you go to a rural area people seem to still be very much aware of things.

I don’t know much about it other than that it’s supposed to be an mmorpg and have 3 factions. Did see a funny comic about it how it’s another attempt to copy WoW and is therefor doomed to fail but I don’t know if that’s true. Let’s see what happens and if it’ll be any good. And let there be a Mac client!

I’m not so much worried about the game copying WoW (don’t really see that happening right now), but the handling of a lot of things that make the Elder Scrolls series so special leaves me a bit worried. For example the lore and character development. Of course they have to adjust to make an MMO based on the series, but my fear is that it might not feel like an Elder Scrolls game in the end. I hope I’m wrong.

Usually the rpg part gets sacrificed for the mmo, particularly to achieve the massive. So in a way yeah that is the WoW effect. When you see how many rpg components have been taken out or dumbed down over the years just for the sake of mass appeal… Sadness.
But you never know, maybe it’ll be awesome and we’ll all want to play it. Fingers crossed.
