Part 5- Japanese TV and beyond

Last night, Katherine, Naka-San and I sat down to play Japanese monopoly while watching a strange show on TV. It was a two hour long special about elastic band guns, and featured about 20 people testing out different weapon designs by seeing how many paper cups they could knock down. This was followed by a program about a group of transvestites helping a young guy get into University. Most airtime is taken up with melodramatic to the point of hilarious dramas, and equally over-the-top game shows.
