Becky is like Hello Kitty, a divider rather than a uniter. You either adore her cheerfulness, or despise her elfin manners.
Becky, by the way, is the direct opposite of Erika Sawajiri. Just saying.

typo: 'kicked off' was what I meant.
Well, what do you know... Just as I was typing this, there's an ad below for a Men's Cosmetic Concealer Stick.

Wasn't Gackt the one who kicked of the bishounen trend?

Why so serious, people?
This would definitely be BIG, like that Awesomest Star Wars rock band painting!
Where on earth (or any other parallel universe) can you form a band with an old-school metal guitarist, a J-Rock guitarist, a total oddball, a hot law student, and a sumo wrestler?
Stop whining about these people being lame, sell-outs or going low! This band is the summit of artistic talent!

Any man who brings up talent when talking about Aya Sugimoto is either missing the point, or is not a full-blooded male.

In what terms of quality? Story/plot, technical advancement, character development, creativity, entertainment value?
Western animation is far advanced when it comes to technology, since they release the films globally, and thus earn more and can allot more funding for increasingly advanced methods of filmmaking.
However, most American storylines veer towards standard, run-of-the-mill plots. Few American cartoons can match the level of creativity and mature storytelling that is more prevalent in Japanese animation. This is true for both film and TV.

Here in the Philippines, two Toyota models (Fortuner and Innova) have been proven to have faulty D4D engines, and Toyota isn't doing anything for its owners.
Maybe they're waiting for a fatal car crash before they're forced to take action.

Don't AKB48 have that hometown Akihabara bar where they always perform?
If you need to steal to chase AKB48, you should start stalking Magibon instead.
