  • Asami Mizukawa for Playboy?

    LOL’

    I never expected to see Playboy Japan, let alone post about it. Photos and style seem different, no? Reminds me of the French Playboy edition with Juliette Binoche. Super class!

  • Tenga Eggs

    Squishy and Oishii have completely changed their meanings.

    Someone at NotCot ran into these Tenga Eggs. Obviously, I didn’t know what they were about until I saw the commercial… but maybe I’m just part of the minority that didn’t know. LOL

  • Maid Cafe, Karaoke and Yakitori for the BSB on their Bigger MV

    Maid Cafe. The very concept makes me giggle.

    But you can never go wrong with Karaoke and Yakitori…
    okay maybe the same can be applied to Maid Cafe too.

    I wasn’t a big fan of the This Is Us album, and Bigger wasn’t my favorite track in it… and the video is normal, but it just kinda works. I mean, it’s Japan~~~ And did I mention the Maid Cafe, Karaoke AND Yakitori?? xD

    This link seems to look a bit better, but can’t embed.

  • If Only… April Story

    by Acerk.

    —

    In my opinion, Yu’s had a pretty decent 10-year career. She’s been a supporting character more than I would prefer, but who cares, she’s still young and has a long way to go. Here are 5 movies that I wish she could have been in. I believe each film selected would have helped her career in one way or another.

  • If Only… Yu Aoi Edition

    During the holidays, I messaged Acerk about him collaborating on a series of posts about films that he would have liked Yu Aoi to be in. If Only is fairly simple.

    You pick your subject, in our case Yu Aoi, and choose films that we would have loved to see her in. There’s just a few rules to the game, the subject needs to positively be right for the role. For example, as much as I could love Cate Blanchett on Elizabeth… Yu Aoi can NOT play her. LOL

    Of course, there are work-arounds to your logic…

    Like for example a 1999 film with a 20-something year old character. You could argue that Yu would be just a teen back then, but she could star in it now. Or a 2001 film about a girl in her late-teens… Yu was in her late teens.

    Of course, the Elizabeth role would need to be a pretty awesome logic xD

    Anyway, Acerk agreed, and this is his queue that he should send me something. I had my picks last week, but I lost them — soo… I had to try to remember them, but they turned out a little bit different. Hopefully better than my first picks. Definitely interesting choices.

    If you (not Acerk, coz he’s already doing a set) are interested on making your OWN If Only assumptions, leave a comment stating it. Everyone is welcomed! Especially Yu Aoi fans.

    What do you think about the idea?
