As we have mentioned before, the Japanese has the cutest commercials. Check out this Japanese commercial for Norton internet security. It protects even the Otaku from viruses!

Whats more, the shrine Mikos are really really cute and I would love to have them appear to protect me from enemies. (Can I hug them too?) There is nothing not to like. Remember to switch on the subtitles to watch.

I was feeling nostalgic and searched Kiki’s Delivery Service on Youtube when I came across this majestic orchestra playing these lovely and wonderful pieces from Various Studio Ghibli movies. Like someone in the comments mentioned, this beats Disney any time.

First song “A seaside town” (0:00 – 4:02)
Second song “Heartbroken Kiki” (4:05 – 5:27)
Third song “Kaasan no Houki”

If you want to buy this CD off Amazon, its called ‘Joe Hisaishi in Budokan’.

Japanese adverts are so so quirkily interesting.

Now it looks like the creation of a real life Chii (or Vocaloid) is not too far away. I get goosebumps just by watching this and I can’t wait to get a personal persocom to serve me. I just hope it’ll be an Apple product. – winks -

This is for those of you who don’t know who Chii is. Tell us what you think in the comments below!
