Via WTF Japan Seriously - Keio University's robotic researcher Masato Takahashi just released his new invention that will significantly advance the human race forevermore - the all-new Japanese fapping clapping robots:
According to Tokyo Tek these clapping hands robots were modelled after the inventor's arms and were made with "an aluminium skeleton coated with urethane flesh and were specially designed to make a natural sounding clap" and that "they can be used at concerts to enhance the sound of real clapping" or as good "spanking machines" to, of course, spank the monkey with! DUH! It all makes perfect sense now.

Did you ever go to a club and leave soon because the DJ's music sucks? Well, you don't have to run away anymore. The same company that brought us the very popular magical thinking cap known as "Necomimi" Japanese Cats Ears For "Communication", neurowear has teamed up with Qosmo for an all new wacky brainwave scanning device known as the Brain Disco! What is a "Brain Disco"? Well, perhaps it is best understood in the manufacturer's own words:
neurowear, teamed up with Qosmo (http://qosmo.jp/), developed "Brain Disco", where DJ must maintain audiences' "attention", measured with brainwave sensors, in order to keep DJing. If the average attention value remains less than a given threshold, DJ gets kicked out.
The first Brain Disco experiment has been held at Gallery KATA Ebisu in July 26.

An ephemeral outdoor ceramic piece made with art students and volunteers, Shit by Jomon-type Monster (2003), consisted of mounds of coiled, brown clay that simultaneously resembled gigantic feces and the pots left by Japan’s pre-historic Jomon civilization. Intentionally crude, the work was an embrace of failure...
Here is a recent interview with Makoto Aida "Bye-bye Kitty!!!":
Several years ago in Japan, the Japanese government created the infamous Power Reactor and Nuclear Fuel Development Corporation (PNC). And then the PNC pricks put their shrunken heads together and dreamed up a campaign to promote the Japanese nuclear power industry and show to the Japanese public that plutonium is actually your "friend" and is nothing to really worry about. In this effort they developed a cute little animated character known as Pluto-kun Your Plutonium Friend!:
This character was included in several Japanese TV spots and quickly caught the attention and harsh criticism from world-wide press and プルト君 (Puruto-kun) disappeared overnight. But now, believe it or not, the Japanese nuke pukes have advanced their twisted, WTF pro-plutonium agenda and instead of employing a cute cartoon character they now employ real Japanese "scientists" who basically state that Plutonium is not so dangerous:
Someone really should save Japan from the Japanese government. ಠ_ಠ

Did you ever want to play Janken (rock, paper, scissors) by yourself and lose everytime in order to deflate you ego, crush your self esteem and achieve today's highly sought after Forever Alone loser status? Well, the folks at the Ishikawa Oku Laboratory - University of Tokyo have just released the right robot for you! This is the Janken (rock-paper-scissors) Robot with 100% winning rate. This high tech fapping machine hand robot just has to be seen to be believed. Check it out:
This video is also a preview to the upcoming science fiction movie "Rock, Paper, Scissors":
Does the robot hand in the video bear a striking resemblance to the flying hands in the movie poster? Eerie. Actually, this robot has been developed for this reason:
In this research we develop a janken (rock-paper-scissors) robot with 100% winning rate as one example of human-machine cooperation systems. Human being plays one of rock, paper and scissors at the timing of one, two, three. According to the timing, the robot hand plays one of three kinds so as to beat the human being.
Well-known and loved for decades, the television/radio star yodeler Takeo Ishi is now going viral on the internets with this hilarious WTF and beautiful music video entitled: "New Bibi-chicken":
Ishi began yodeling as a student and practiced in the mountains of Japan. He joined the "Alpine Yodeling" club and wound up on Japanese TV in a short time. He then went to Switzerland and sang in a restaurant for tourists and was immediately hired. That was the beginning of a 20+ year singing career in Europe. Along the way he teamed up with master yodeler Franzl Lang and since then has appeared on numerous TV and radio shows throughout Europe. Now he is becoming very popular on the web. He lives in Germany with his family and is very highly regarded as an amazing talent in the genre of yodel music.

The popular indie Japanese comic performance art trio known as Megwin TV (think WTF Jackass in Japan with a low budget) tests a "bowling-ball proof" iPad case:
On average, these wacky and funny guys produce about 30 short clips each month and also do live stage performances! To keep up with their frantic pace, you should visit their official website or subscribe to their Twitter account (Japanese only).
In today's WTF China Daily News, it has been reported that many people in Beijing, Shanghai and other Chinese cities have become quite concerned about a small privately run nursery school named "Readers" located in Zhengzhou. This small school has recently introduced a new kind of sex education class with "live versions of dolls" or toy dolls which include complete replicas of human reproductive organs.
On Saturday, September 3rd the below news video was broadcast on China's CNS TV:
The owner of the school claims that most of their sex education classes are "custom made, and others from some of the children's parents."
Also China's Ten Cent News , a subsidiary of Japan's 3Yen Daily News Organization, recently reported the following dialogue heard from within the "Readers" pedobear training center nursery school:
Hou teacher asked: "So how did you go into the womb of it?"
Girl Momo answer in a show of hands: "father's sperm to find the mother's egg, and then I had planted in the womb!"
"Her answer was right?"
"Right!"
"Well, that is how sperm find the egg it, come join us to do a finger exercise it!"
Here is a truly astounding and WTF unbelievable, must see video on how current Japanese government officials are mistreating, ignoring and insulting their very own citizens in Fukushima! These residents are located outside of the current 20-30 km evacuation zone. However, since more high levels of radiation are being discovered near their homes and schools, they want the government to increase the evacuation zone and financially support them and their families to evacuate. But, of course, the Japanese government does not want to do this as it would involve many more residents and cost much, much more. In the beginning of this video, the Director of Local Nuclear Emergency Response Headquarters, Mr. Akira Satoh, answers some very serious questions from some very concerned Fukushima citizens:
Citizen: "As other people do, people in Fukushima have a right to avoid the radiation exposure and live a healthy life too. Don't you think so?"
Akira Satoh: "The government has tried to reduce the radiation exposure dose as much as it can."
Other citizens: "You didn't answer his question!"
Citizen: "So are you saying that they don't? They have that right don't they?
Akira Satoh: "I don't know if they have that right."
Can't believe it? Watch:
Above video was filmed and edited by some anonymous members of the Japanese Save Child website. English subtitles are 100% correct and were done by pejorativeglut.
The below picture is of Mr. Akira Satoh. Towards the end of the video, when he refused to accept the childrens' urine for radiation testing, they should have poured it all over him!
Popular Youtuber Mike Diva recently went to Japan and saw this very OMFG WTF new Furby Japanese TV commercial! It begins as a 'normal' cute and KAWAII "Space Furby" ad. But then about halfway through, suddenly the TV screen starts going fuzzy, and we then see little Furby burning on fire!!!
Then, suddenly, Furby is on a demonic sacrificial altar!!!
Is this the end of Furby? How did Japanese TV become so evil and exciting? This has to be seen to be believed:

While many countries attempt in vain to overthrow Japan as THE #1 WTF superpower, China may now have a lock on the world's #1 Forever Alone artist:
Actually, this is one of the many incredible works by China's world-renowned camouflage artist Liu Bolin. His work has been shown in many countries and one of his recent solo exhibitions “The Invisible Man,” was produced by Eli Klein Fine Art and held in New York.
But before asking yourself "Why, China, Why?" Bolin's art is considered by many as a very poignant statement on our world and the anonymous state of so many poverty-stricken people all over the globe. Early in his career, his exhibits were shut down by Chinese authorities making him virtually 'anonymous' but through that experience he developed his art even more. "My pieces talk about the question of the social status of art in general. In my work the artist is hiding to restore his strength and to protect himself," says Bolin.
After graduating with a master's degree from the Central Academy of Fine Arts in 2001, Bolin became a college teacher but resigned after only four years. He then moved to Beijing's old city of Suo Jia Village and began his fantastic voyage. You can see more of Bolin's work here.
In this short Hong Kong Face Slimmer Demo Video, Hsiao Mi shows how to use this 2-in-1 face-lift and thin neck roller. This manual roller device is much easier to use than the Japanese mouthpiece face slimmer. The mouthpiece model requires one to get into a bathtub, put the slimmer in their mouth and then repeat all of the Japanese vowels "a i u e o" 『あ い う え お』 over and over for three (3) minutes a day everyday for the rest of one's life.
This hand-held wheel type slimmer doesn't require any talking nor getting into a bathtub as one should just simply roll it around their face for about 10 minutes or so each night. It also costs less and while using it one can relax and watch TV at the same time. Apparently by doing this one can lift up their face and thin out those horrible double chins. Check out how Hsiao Mi starts using it when she says "Look Me":
"What else can you do if your obsessive colleague shows up to work in a homemade Iron Man suit? That's what Wang Xiao Kang did one day at telecom equipment maker ZTE's Shanghai offices."
"It's not an easy thing to create an Iron Man suit, and Wang apparently spent months building his version of the Mark I version despite having no DIY experience."
