Archive for January, 2009. Face blotting paper: Cute, practical, and makes a great gift. When Himawari goes to Japan, she likes to check out the latest candy selection. That’s high on my list as well, and I also love picking up face blotting paper. Developed in Kyoto 90 years ago by Yojiya Cosmetics. It may be too late to use them as stocking stuffers this year, but they do in a pinch as a cute and practical gift, whatever the season. Thinking of doing business in Japan? We can make it easy for you!

Archive for July, 2008. Massage Therapy is on Every Corner. Ever thought of hiring a personal masseuse? Well, unless you’re loaded, you probably can’t afford one. So what’s the next best thing? How about a massage shop on every corner? Okay, maybe not be as abundant as Starbucks, but shops catering to soothing the knots of a stressful work day are only steps away; in a department store or along a busy shopping arcade, even at the airport. Thinking of doing business in Japan? We can make it easy for you!

Archive for November, 2008. Don Quijote: A Shopper’s Geeky Paradise. There’s one store I spend more time at than any other in Japan. It’s Don Quijote. A one-stop discount shop for all my geeky needs. On the lower floors you’ll find all sorts of odd costumes like Sailor Moon uniforms for men, hats shaped like poop, and anatomically-correct animal outfits. I commend anyone who can dress up as a raccoon with his family jewels hanging down like it’s nobody’s business. Thinking of doing business in Japan?

Japanizmo – Japanese Trends, Culture, and Business. Archive for October, 2010. Get on the Bus! Here’s a school of animals. Ready to jump in your lunch box, feed you, and pick particles out of your teeth. What do you think…they’re toothpicks! Moms will rejoice that they can finally get kids to eat their brussel sprouts. Just stick in a toothpick and watch them eat it like a piece of candy (well, hopefully). It may seem deceptive, but it’s just like playing choo-choo train with a spoon. For example. Re...

Japanizmo – Japanese Trends, Culture, and Business. Archive for May, 2011. Don’t Touch Me, I’m Electrified! I’ve been practicing the Running Man. Lately, that dance move from the 80s. It’s a great cardio workout, plus, I can show off my “total rad” moves at the club. But I realize the more I dance on my shaggy carpet, the more my body accumulates a lot of static electricity. So when I hug a friend, they’re jolted with a lightning bolt of pain. (Sorry, Sachiko! I really need one of these:. Wake up and Dan...

Japanizmo – Japanese Trends, Culture, and Business. Green Tea with Envy. August 10, 2011 at 11:53 am. After falling into a major food coma, the best pick-me-up is a cup of green tea.

At markets both in Japan and the U.S., but nothing beats a home brew. It tastes fresh and you can make it as strong as you want. So check this out:. Visit us on facebook! You are ...

Archive for April, 2008. The Power of Meow. Would you like a bit of cat with your coffee? Wait, come back! Let me rephrase. Ahem. At Cat Café Calico. Guests must be at least ten years old and play gently with the cats, which are typically friendly and like all the attention. Cats are “retired” when they reach eight to ten years old, but don’t worry, that’s not as ominous as it sounds! And there’s always Christon Café. Perhaps strangest of all to my western eyes are the yaoi cafes. JPBizDirect, a Los Ange...

Archive for June, 2008. FCX Clarity, Honda’s Zero-Emission Car, Arrives from Japan. This ties in with my post a few weeks ago about Japan’s potential as a Green leader. Last November, Honda unveiled. Its new zero-emission car at the Los Angeles Motor Show. On Monday, June 16th, the first wave of vehicles arrived in Southern California to a celebrity welcome reception. There are only a handful of lucky owners so far, including Jamie Lee Curtis and her husband Christopher Guest (. With the price of gas sky...
