Intro for those who are new...

Welcome to my blog which shows you some of the interesting and crazy things I found in Japan. Sometimes they might seem offensive, other times tacky but mostly you will get a good laugh and an interesting story. If you have never been to Japan or if you live there, there is always something new to discover.

In this blog I don't mean to criticize or look down on another culture. I am simply expressing how I feel and what I see when I come across things. Also, though the title says 'Only in Japan' in no way am I saying that the following things are exclusively found in Japan (though that may be the case for certain things). It is more of a thought to myself whenever I see something I didn't expect.

Pretty in Pink!

Established in 1952 by Barbie
No, this is not a photo with trick lighting. This pink monstrosity really is a chain store in Aeon Jusco malls across Japan.  This is not a candy store. This is not a kids shop. This is an adult woman's fashion and accessory shop. 
Not all clothing shops in Japan look like this. But I am pretty sure these extremely bright, eye sores are more common only in Japan.  Japanese girls love pink. It is "kawaii!" so where there is a demand there must be a supply.  Who knows maybe I might end up getting pink fluffy slippers and join the kawaii crowd.

Only in Japan...
