Cubic watermelons?

Watermelon credit
Yes they're real and edible. Farmers in southern Japanese town of Zentsuji  grew square watermelons because of their lack of space, according to the Japanese a round watermelon takes too much space in a fridge as opposed to a compact square one which fits "perfectly."
This is done by inserting a watermelon into a glass case while it's still growing in the vine, this watermelon however is 3x as costly as a regular watermelon would cost in Japan, converted into American money it's an equivalent of $82. pretty costly if you ask me, though pragmatic.

Suntory

 

If you wanna look at all the different types of strange flavors all over the world click on this link, please do it, It's kinda fun
Suntory is the number one Japanese beverage maker, Japan is known to have come up with weird flavors of beverages but these are just so unique they're cool. Suntory started off with having a chocolate soft drink and now they're starting to sell all types of weird pepsi's. In 2007 they released a cucumber flavored soft pepsi drink, which sounds delicious by the way, and it seems as if this exotic drink started foundations of all new irregular pepsi flavors.

They have yogurt flavored pepsi, "Shisho" meaning  Perilla in Japanese for those of you who don't know what this is, it's a minty plant. They even have french chestnut flavored soda.
They also have "Azuki" which is red bean flavored soda...... Bizarre, I kind of feel like nobody would actually ever enjoy red bean flavored soda and the Japanese are just trying to be cool now, Who am I kidding Japan is awesome in every sense.
pepsi cred
more soda cred

Tokyo

  
Tokyo is the seat of the Japanese government, home of the Emperor of Japan and is the capital of the country. Before, Tokyo was a small fishing village named ‘Edo’, meaning estuary, later, when it became the imperial capital of Japan
in 1868, its name was changed to Tokyo, which literally translates to ‘Eastern Capital’. Tokyo has the largest metropolitan gross domestic product (GDP) in the whole world, for a city. It's home to many of the world's most developed investment banks and insurance companies.The Economist Intelligence Unit rated Tokyo as the most costly city in the whole world, for a period of 14 yrs, until 2006.

Japanese recruiting video
My apush teacher should me this, this video is a Japanese navy recruiting video, in this video everything they have they're nice chorus and suits along with synchronized choreography?..... ..If you've ever seen american army recruiting videos, there's the intense/sad music, soldiers running here and there, a couple of moving punch lines here and there. After watching this video remember to note that these are the same people who destroyed Pearl Harbor, oh and this video's 100% legitimate.

It's a kitty pandemic

 

Kitty picture's cred 

I love hello kitty, mostly because it's Japanese, I think all of Sanrio's merchandise looks so nicely made that I just want to buy it all, though i'm not a big fan of the color pink. Hello Kitty's character which is invented and promoted by a Japanese company called Sanrio in 1974. She's the most successful out of all Sanrio characters. She has produced different products all around the world, in which they include wallets, watches, clothing, fabrics, Polaroid camera, portable CD players/stereos, hankerchiefs, different stationaries, cutlerys, lunchboxes, puppets, the list goes on and on. In Japan, the car company Mira also built a Hello Kitty car, even Hello Kitty cell phones are available. I personally think the world has gone too crazy over this cat.
Oh and today I just found out they came out with Hello Kitty engagement rings -_-

Mameshiba

CLICK ON THIS VIDEO

Mameshiba's a show about little character bean dogs who appear in people's food and excrete disturbing/random trivia. I really enjoy Japanese cartoons because I find them strange, I think this ideas pretty original too, there's all sorts of scenes and characters, the creator of these skits have gone really in depth with it's idea, even the characters of the show have certain names and traits like Natto the soy bean you saw or are about to see in the video "Sticks to it's convictions and suffers from hyperhidrosis" this comes to shows the complexity in this piece implicating that Japanese culture creates a more strict and faster learning environment for children in these short clips. Mameshiba is so famous now that it's starting to be translated and played in other countries. Millions of people enjoy this creepy yet adorable bean dog.

Seaweed facials

obama sushi cred 

Who knew that seaweed is actually very nutritious and can benefit your skin. Seaweed is rich in beneficial minerals, vitamins, amino acids, B-complex vitamins, potassium and calcium which help de-toxify your skin and helps improve elasticity. It softens, hydrates and repairs skin cells. To start your facial just take off some excess seaweed paper from your sushi and place it in warm water for atleast five minutes, next rub into your hands to break down the seaweed and just rub it all over your face. You should let it dry for about ten minutes and remove with cold water. Once you're done, your face should feel vitalizied and refreshed. Cool.

This is perfect
