The “Kuroshio Sea” tank in the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium is the second largest in the world and houses 21,000 animals. The tank holds about 7.5 million liters (or almost 2 million gallons). Enough words, take a look at this video, definitely breathtaking (watch in HD!)

Archive picture from the Korean War dated 1951. I hate to talk about politics and such, but I couldn’t help it but share this picture. Makes me wonder what we humans are up to… Whatever the reason, the two kids (probably orphans) don’t have anything to do with that.

You know how many times I’ve said that I prefer Japanese/Asian Cosplayers. Well, today’s Russian Sailor Moon cosplayers, along with Jill Valentine from Resident Evil account for one of the best international cosplayers I’ve seen around. And now that I think about it, what could be better than Russian gals for the tall blonde and cute Sailor Moon cast? ^^

Maximum height is 1.56 m under this tunnel, which means you have to drive a really small car in order to fit ^^ most people I know won’t fit under this bridge. Do remember that Japanese and most Asians for that matter are not as Caucasians for example, so getting under this tunnel *may* not be such a pain for them ^^;; I’m not tall at all so I didn’t get too bothered, but taller folks usually have a trouble because of the difference in height. Are you one of them?

Odaiba’s Giant Gundam with the sun setting behind. Just the romantic day for some massive destruction!
Or perhaps you prefer the Giant Transformer? ^^

Was originally writing about sushi for today, but I just couldn’t let today’s megane musume (glasses girl) go in vain. Schoolgirl uniform + glasses + muffler = meccha kawaii~!

Hi everyone ^^
I have great news for you (or for me?), Michael Flux from MichaelFlux.com just told me last week that he needed a guest blogger for one week, and after some hasty preparations today was my first day as a guest blogger, quite an honor!
MichaelFlux.com was launched just three months ago but has been steadily growing, with excellent quality posts as well as beautiful pictures from Japan and many other places. Don’t forget to check his photo walks!
My first post was about Miyajima’s Torii, one of the biggest tourist attractions in Japan. Anyway, go check it out ^^

Looking at the city from Kiyomizudera in Kyoto, a buddhist temple and the biggest wood structure. Supposedly not a single nail holds the temple’s structure!
As I have said countless times, your life is not complete if you don’t go to Kyoto when in Japan ^^

Recognize the person above? Hayao Miyasaki, one of the best J animated filmmakers and my favorite. The above fanart includes many well known characters from his animated films like Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, My Neighbor Totoro, Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, and many more.
If you don’t know him then your life is not complete and you should go watch any of his films. It’s amazing how he can capture the attention of kids and adults with his messages about childhood dreams, environmentalism, and anti-war criticism.
I haven’t watched his latest film yet, Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea, and I have great expectations. My favorite movie is tied between Mononoke Hime and Nausicaa. Which one’s your favorite? ^^
