Heard of Ponyo? It’s another one of Hayao Miyazaki’s movies. And yes I caught the movie when it premiered in Singapore! Simply love it – though I prefer if the story had more to it. The ending was really sudden ^^”.

Interesting video of a particular Japanese barber in Nagano who uses knife to trim or cut your hair.
His knife cut costs 7,875 yen and he apparently has two or three customers a month who choose that option. He also offers a “UFO” vacuum cut for the same price and a fencing cut for 10,500 yen.

Turning yourself into an action figure is now possible, with the Bandai Pellermodel. Turn photos of yourself into the figure below!
So now turning photos of yourself into an action figure, you sorta become a Figma yourself. Neat and weird though. I don’t see why anyone would want to be an action figure XD This action figure would be good if you intend to give this to your other half :3.
