Japanese adult magazines get the 3D treatment
DVD Dream, 980 yen, including silly glasses and two DVDs with all the 3D smut a lonely old man who's yet to discover the internet could ever wish for...
Given the recent fuss about how Japan is represented in Western media, I'd like to ask, "Is this the real Akihabara?"
I had this Akihabara story lying around with no place to go when I saw the Boing Boing piece ( http://www.boingboing.net/2009/12/14/why-weird-japan-sell.html ) about media tropes and their relevance to the real world, so thought it a nice complement worth publishing, albeit with a considerably narrower focus. You can read it all at the DigitalWorldTokyo link below the charming photo of otaku-supreme, Patrick G, above.
While I agree almost 100 percent with Lisa - I've had similarly unsatisfying experiences with some of the same publications I know she's worked for - I can see the point of view of others, such as Jason here: http://twitter.com/jinki1/status/6715717844
Any thoughts, corrections, offers of work and/or frosty cold beverages?
