This is our new theme for June and you will see the variety (pun intended) that we have in store for you. What do you first think of when it comes to Japanese entertainment?
Hi everyone! This is such a huge theme with so many sub themes that stem from it. Some unmentioned uniquely Japanese topics: game centres (arcades), pachinko, manga/anime, idol culture, Johnny's (junior) groups and their fans, music scene in general (how fans purchase multiple CDs and merch to get handshake vouchers, etc).

Japanese TV probably comes to mind first!
I like a lot of it and there's so much to think about. I probably thought of movies and music first though :)
I'm a big fan of the fantasy genre, and always love learning about different mythological tales that inspire Japanese films and shows!
My first thought is Jpop!!
Is it ok that the first thing I think of is Takeshi's Castle? I am so low brow. :p
