The Fireflies Of Shibuya

[floatr]Image[/floatr]The Hotaru-san Project is a group of "human fireflies", each dressed in black with a glowing light on their backsides. Go to their website and you can type in a message (in romaji or kana) and the fireflies will line up their lights to reproduce it. The group regularly turn up in parts of Tokyo and, on Saturday, 30 of them converged on Shibuya for an impromptu performance, sponsored by internet company So-net Hikari. They went on to turn up in Ginza and Shinjuku. There'll be some videos on the net shortly but, to give you a taste, there's a clip below from an earlier outings.

When I saw "hotaru-san," I thought it meant "hot-arseing" and was expecting another Miss Japan caper, but all I got was these wackos....

....Oh well, those birds have got some seriously bad boils on their butts.

So when foreigners dress up in costumes and run around the city, the police go into panic mode, but these guys get a shrug and a chuckle.

Note to self: when going on costumed spree, cover face and bring a J-friend.
