Love milk? Really love milk? That is the message in the Japanese milk commercial mashup in the vid below advertising Megmilk.
It features a bunch of cute anime meganekko (glasses wearing girls) in cow print bikinis whom, after removing their bikini tops and megane (glasses), are harvested for their milk after teatcups from a milking machine are attached to their oppai (breasts). How many fetishes can they cover off in one clip?
Akira is the 1988 anime film that introduced the Western world to modern anime. It is directed by Katsuhiro Otomo and is the film adaptation based on his 2,000 page hit manga.
The story begins in 1988 when an unexplained explosion, believed to be an atomic bomb, completely destroys Tokyo and marks the beginning of WWIII precipitating the creation of Neo-Tokyo, a dark and dangerous futuristic megalopolis that had risen from the post-war ashes of the old city.
“Yakitate!! Japan” is the title of Takashi Hashiguchi’s epic series which translates to “freshly baked Japan.” The short manga clip below is extracted from an episode and explores some British stereotypes. The lyrics to the clip have been sub-titled as:
♪We’re English, and we love tea.♪
♪Occasionally, we hang out at pubs, too.♪
♪You can’t buy our bread with Euros.♪
♪We add malt vinegar to everything.♪
♪Fish ‘n’ chips.♪
♪Fish ‘n’ chips.♪
The series consists of about 20 volumes covering the plight of the hero Kazuma Azuma’s quest to handcraft a specialty style of Japanese bread, Ja-pan. “Pan” in this context is a pun as it is the Japanese word for “bread”. Azuma posseses a superpower, Solar Hands, which really help out when he kneads dough (the bread rises faster because his hands are warmer).
