Jpop Video of the Night! And... Quote of the Night!

Sekai wa sore wo ai to yobundaze (What the world calls Ai and Love) by Sambomaster!
*Ai is the Japanese word for love, so the title, I think, repeats the word love first in Japanese then as an English sounding Japanese loanword for love because the artist wants to sing about the meaning of love... as it's summed up in the title.

This is the ending theme of "Densha Otoko". Watching this was good times last year!

And today's quote of the day, from Gintama episode two.
"My house?!" Ken-sama
"Now that you have changed you can build 100 houses." Gintoki-san

I have to admit the quote is from a bad fansub that exaggerated Gintoki's response which actually was
"You have changed haven't you? I'm sure your house will be fine."
Since nouns aren't singular or plural in Japan, the first translation could actually hold weight however the number of houses wasn't said at all!

But the point is that when you've changed you can do anything! The adversity in the past is nothing!

Welcome to
The Otaku Reviewers



This blog, "The Otaku Reviewers", was started in February of 2010 on this very same platform, Blogger. At first, it was a venture into the informational and informal world of comics, anime, video games, and Japanese culture. In other words, just a random blog.

Over time, the founder of the blog credited with the pseudonym "RPGhero" was joined by two fellow bloggers and friends with the names "Chansu" and "Deretsun". Together the three bloggers looked up interesting Japanese culture facts, recommended new anime, talked about their own "otaku" interests, and traveled across the United States to various anime conventions.

There have been off periods when the blog ceased production of content and there have been times when there would be dozens of blog posts per week. The schedule varies depending on the lives of the people behind the alias'. However the pattern is that we always get back into the game with even newer information about Japanese culture, anime, video games, and other nerdy hobbies.

The motto of our blog is:
"A cure for your apathy and an inspiration for your dreams. ...Applies to Otaku, anime fans, J-pop junkies, and the like"

The purpose is to blog about cool stuff related solely to anime and otaku stuff. There's no other reason we're doing this.

If you like our blog, please support us in however small a way that you would like. We appreciate our readers!
