Aiyoh, and that was one of the Starbucks outlets I really liked. And it's not a real eyesore, but sigh, touche.

Actually, if you want to see things in a cetain way, and to interpret it that way you want to, you will. The human mind is amazingly flexible.

Gaki no Tsukai is a cultural phenomenon in some ways, to be listed in a pop encyclopedia; to be two of the top money earners in jap (dubiously honoured with paying the highest taxes, and Hamada's comment is classic!); to have a show that's been running since 1989...etc. Something must be right afterall.

Kabuki is very intriguing. I deffo would like to see a Kabuki play one day.
