The anime gundam and dofu maker collaborated to release dofu anime which started selling from 28th-March for a limited period. Animes making their way into the realistic world ＼（◎o◎）／
The work is known as “zaku doufu”, taking the head portion motif of character “zaku”, that appears in the anime Gundam. The response was so overwhelming that the dofu were completely sold out in many shops since its release.
“Zaku dofu” costs about 200yen per pack for 200grams. It is selling in most convenience stores and supermarkets in Kanto areas.
I shall try to get one after everybody got tired of it (^ _*).
The packaging of zaku dofu. The packaging image is completely different from traditional dofu.
The vivid green color container certainly looks close to the anime zaku. And amazing! They did not forget to add in the red EYEBALLS!
At a glance, I thought it looks more like an UFO to me. It looks more like a helmet now after closer observations m(＿ ＿)m
Green color is the theme and here it is, the dofu is green in color too. And yes, the shape remains intact too! Wow, Cool! The taste is green soya and surely it looks delicious enough.
** For your information, this is how MS-06 zaku in gundam anime looks like. **
You can see this fruit that looks like a tangerine, in any supermarket in Japan at this season. “Dekopon”, as this fruit is known as, is a citrus fruit, originally Made In Japan through cross-breeding. Cool right?
Maybe the photo which I had taken can’t tell much (try googling “dekopon” if not) , it has a very obvious “ugly” bump on the top.
My first brush with dekopon has been a very idiot one (^~^;)
Imagine! I mixed it up with missile name, “tepodon”! That’s the problem with Japanese language for foreigners. I still think they sound alike after all…
In contrary to its rough appearance, dekopon is actually almost seedless and awesomely sweet and juicy d(^o^)b
The success of cross-breeding doesn’t occur overnight.
I hope that the world can have a taste of the delicious dekopon created through the hands of Japanese people.
Sweet and feminine dress (fit and flare style)
Image picked up from ViVi
This sweet dress is featured in the famous Japanese magazine, ViVi.
Fit and flare style is the recent trend in dresses in Japan. Love the overall design from the small details of the transparent dot tulle around the shoulders, high-waist, decor around the chests and who can forget about the Peter pan collars! They just enhanced the feminine style.
And also, the big plus is that the Peter Pan Collar is detachable!
The kawaii culture extended to the construction work sites.
“Mum, look! Giraffes”, the yelling from excited children could be heard from far.
No doubt, children enjoy these animals barricades.
The famous delicious Japanese gourmets — (chirashizushi, dango, unagi, nikujyaga, taraba gani, oden, etc).
Could you actually tell that these are iphone cases? Look real don’t they? They are made by food samples craftsman (same as those food samples that you normally see at Japanese restaurants).
Maybe these do help in reducing the crave for hometown food, for Japanese who are currently residing in foreign countries ( v^_-)
Popular cosmetic brand RMK, came up with special edition cheek palatte, to celebrate their 15th anniversary. The design is created with the image of a little fairy dressed in petal. Looks cute? Does it capture your heart? It could make a fabulous gift too.
A 6 colors set that has its color balancing considered and it is limited edition.
Just mix the colors with a blush to give a natural clear coloring and add a touch of glossiness to the skin.
This new generation intelligent beverage vending machine has been the talk of the town since its release last year end.
I had my first encounter with it within the train station itself. To my amazement, the machine’s size is big! Not only is the display liquid crystal of supreme high quality, its touch screen operation and also equipped with innovative functions. In short, high-tech and images are crystal clear.
Firstly, I did a little observing on the machine from some distance away. When nobody was around, the machine will auto display beverages which it “analysed” best suits the temperature and time.

Next, I went a bit closer to the machine (within sensor boundary). The screen automatically switched to show the list of available beverages. Is it my imagination that all beverages look delicious?
Beverage list
Then I proceeded to position myself right in front of the machine. And know what? The machine tried to recommend drinks that it thought best suited me, by displaying “For you” indications besides some of the beverages.
According to information by maker, this machine actually made recommendations after analyzing customer’s age, gender, time and temperature during purchase. Wow, cool! Doesn’t it sound superb to have a machine estimating your age? They probably count wrinkles, blemishes…
Beverage auto selection
And what you had chosen will be shown large on the screen. After confirming the price and item, pay and that’s it. You still have the option to cancel this transaction! Isn’t it convenient?
Chosen beverage
These lovely room shoes are designed and produced by a Japanese model.
Altogether, the pastel colors (in the pictures) and the ribbon with the glossy pearls at the front looks extremely sweet. The material is soft to the touch and feels so comfortable to wear.
Not only as a room shoes, but it suitable for wearing in the hotel rooms during travelling.
