Every time I hear the English-language version of the Air Buggy Japan ad in KORL, I imagine some dude popping out from the back of the store going, “Yo! Kick it! Break it down!” when they mention their “free wrapping service”.

As in previous years, there’s a common theme in some of the anime properties this season. This year it’s magical girls and cards. The three I’m thinking of are Fantasista Doll, Day Break Illusion, and Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya. In Fantasista Doll, the middle-school protagonist comes into possession of a smartphone that allows her to call forth five combat “dolls” that she can variously equip with a card app on said phone. In Day Break Illusion the high-school protagonist has inherited the power to transform and use the power of tarot cards to engage in battle with dark forces.

Amazing how a liitle nice booze takes the edge off, happy happy!

Thanks to everyone who came out to the Honolulu Museum of Art to support the Museum and the Hawaii art community! I was engaged in creation (though at times fruitlessly), so I didn’t get to talk to many of you, but I enjoyed meeting those of you who I had the brief lucid moments to converse with. Thanks to you who bought my pieces! Hopefully we’ll meet again next year!
Just heard KORL play that other older song of theirs again. Everytime I hear it, I wonder, just what the heck is a “Flying Get”? At least “My Urethra” makes sense, sorta.
