So far, there is no nationwide fast food chain offering hot dog in Japan. But looks like things are changing as Mini Stop convenience stores have started concentrating on hot dogs, aiming to become a fast food contender.

And here is the CM for the Hot Dogs!!

We do have fast food chains offering hot dogs here, but there aren’t many of the outlets here.. o.O What about you? Do you see Hot Dogs Fast Food Chains? ^^

I know just how crazy vending machines are in Japan, we have R4 being sold in Japan, and vending machines allowing you to bill it via your veins.

The concept of having a burger vending machine is so great that the cook controllers the vending machine manually. He pops the burger into the “vending machine” himself. Take a look at the video below!

Drop 100 Yen and you’ll get a Tateishi Hamburger in no time, but if you want another, you’ll have to walk into the restaurant and wait. It all seems …

Living in the bustling city of Singapore, we don’t have wildlife appearing on streets, on roads, etc. Occasionally we do get dogs barging out – that’s about  it. Deers in Japan.. I like to see that myself ^^

The police tried to capture the deers that made their way into Sapporo, but they failed. Clearly the police shouldn’t be the ones to deal with deer catching o.O. They’re not qualified! LOL.

Another creative gadget that can only be found in Japan, a solar charger for your phone, in the design of HELLO KITTY!

Now this just needs to be released internationally for any type of phone :D.
Fancy a solar charger for your phone? It’s kinda cool because your electronic devices will just die off when you’re outside. And the solar energy is endless. All you need is the sun!

Remember the hidden camera show that featured a sniper sniping the comedians but the target (who was left to run for his life..) Today we have another prank, and this time the joke’s on model/idol Yukina Kinoshita into believing that she was going on a hunt [...]

I have been reading up on the launch of Windows 7, and I seen a certain Live TV show in Japan, showing the demo of the Windows 7, only to have some glitch problems. Initially I thought this was nothing much, perhaps the guy just didn’t know how to use it XD. Apparently, at the recent Akihabara Windows 7 launch event, Microsoft Japan’s CEO Yasuyuki Higuchi was having some difficulty using the new Windows 7 with the touchpanel >_<.

I’m no computer expert, but apparently the touchpanel is giving the new …

While I am not a fan of cars, I found this advertisement amusing :3.

Like to ask readers a question: Would you buy a car(let’s say you have tons of money) if your fave anime character was promoting it? :D

In my previous post, I presented you the Windows 7 Whopper at BK Japan. While we can’t figure out how customers were going to be able to take a bite out of it, our questions have been answered by CheapAssGamer! He took a voyage down to Akihabara Burger King to try out the Windows 7 Whopper.

The beef patties looks fattening. Wait they are! I will never ever purchase it because I know I can’t finish it at all. Too many beef patties ><.

Feeling hungry? Then be sure to try out this new Windows 7 Whopper at Burger King Japan! Microsoft has taken a unique step here to promote Windows 7 in Japan.

Fitting in with the software theme, the burger stacks seven patties in an otherwise normal Whopper and measures 5.1 inches tall. It also has an appropriate 777 yen price.
Looks like Microsoft has forgotten that Nana Mizuki voiced the Japanese Mascot for Windows 7. They should just mention “Nana Mizuki” in their advertisement and I’m sure any fan of Nana will rush …
