Two Enjoyably Disturbing or Disturbingly Enjoyable Things from Japan

Normally I like to talk about tech or comics but the Japanese language will have to be excuse enough this time. I challenge my fellow Internauts to find an article more absurd than this one:

I might have teased this article as a "tradeoff for getting video games first" or "they already did that to my major" but it turns out those are both in bad taste.

In related news, Japanese manga Usagi Yojimbo is the latest graphic/text enriched bound series of pages to be thoroughly enjoyed in this apartment. Anyone with a taste for samurai or anthropomorphism should borrow it from me or attempt to experience it through some sort of advanced telepathy. Remember the episode of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles where they teamed up with a Samurai Rabbit? That was Usagi. Having said that, this comic takes place in an entirely different continuity. A much better one. Don't even get me started on TMNT continuity though. Did you know they killed Shredder in the first TMNT comic book? You see, you shouldn't have got me started.
