"Namco Bandai has announced that it will soon be releasing "Muscle March"(another odd game to come out of Japan) in North America on Wii Ware."
This game is just so off the hook, WTF, that it could very well become a big comeback hit for the Japanese gaming industry. In the below trailer, we see the muscle men (and a polar bear in orange shorts) chasing a football player who has stolen their protein powder:

South Park - The Japanese vs. Dolphins
'South Park' Takes On Japanese Dolphin Slaughter (VIDEO)
10-27-09
Via Huffington Post
"With this year's release of the stunning and horrifying documentary, The Cove new light has been shed on the tradition of slaughtering dolphins once a year in the National Park at Taiji, Wakayama in Japan. "South Park"'s creators, never ones to shy away from controversy, decided to take on the practice last night in an episode called "Whale Whores." In the video below we see Stan and his family swimming with dolphins at the Denver Aquarium until a huge number of Japanese men coming to kill the animals."
Here are some parts from this episode:
Note: Obviously, the above segments are just comic satire. In reality, like many Japanese people, Japan's Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama HATES Whale Meat

Rex Ray to Rob Pongi: "FU"
A couple weeks ago, as usual, I was "clowning around" inside David Bowie's site: Bowienet and somehow I inspired the world-renowned fine artist and graphic designer Rex Ray to create this:
And I think it all means "For You Pongi-san!!" But then again it could possibly mean something else entirely different?!?! Well, either way, its all good and just a kind of Bowienet "inside" joke.
To see more of Rex Ray's brilliant work, please visit his official site: Rex Ray

Japan's Adult Toys Robot Nation
Via Current TV
Here is a really interesting documentary short film (100% Safe For Work - SFW) on how Japan continues to develop robot technology (i.e. "adult toys"), improve masturbation devices, ban immigration, and exacerbate the rapid decline of its own birth rate - all of which, combined, may ultimately decimate the entire Japanese population:

Funny Japanese TV Commercials for Softbank
Here are some funny Japanese TV commercials for Softbank. They're all in Japanese only with no English subtitles, but basically the dog is the "father" who, of course, is one of the most important members of any family. And, with Japan's current "dog boom" still showing no end in sight, the comic premise of these commercials includes a satirical stab at many Japanese dog owners who, believe it or not, consider canines as 'humans' and that dogs are more important than children:

Ha Ha Ha America by Jon Daniel Ligon
This is a short film produced in Shanghai and Wen Zhou China in 2006 by Jon Daniel Ligon entitled Ha Ha Ha America which features scenes of the amazing growth of China and, through the use of comic Engrish subtitles, also makes a very funny satirical laughing stock of the USA and the administration of former President George Bush.
