'Is Japan cool?'

[Coligny]

No you didn't. That was the correct order. Late teens to early 20s is gravure. If you haven't made it big by 25, it's nude or retire. By 28 it's pr0n or retire.

It's really not that written in stone methink...

Even for pr0n it's 18-20 for a start, by 25 the decline start and either you're a big name or you start having to do stuff that would make a German weep, and before 30 you retire. Yua's last video "eternal" who was totally Gravure style was at 23, after she retired ("a day that will live in infamy").

Those carreers are "either... or" not "then and then"

There is just one ex AKB48 who switched to pr0n. and who rememburs the Morning Musume sluts ? I don't think any of them did anything after. Once their group "branding" decline nobody give a flying frack anymore...

I'd say there is a bit of variation in the age range. It seems like a lot of girls get into pr0n straight out of high school.
I'd say 28 is about when they start going for the MILF/jukujo type roles...
And didn't a former AKB48 chick go right into it too (don't know if she "graduated", or was kicked out)?

Yep, here she is: やまぐちりこ 21

And little sis is also into pr0n: やまぐちりく 20

(Edit: Seems my post overlaps Coligny a bit - great minds and all that...)

I know there are plenty of chicks that go straight into porn but I was talking about the path of those that try to stay out of it.

Speaking of the jukujo, you know you're getting old when you realize the porn with the hot young chick you're jerking off too is MILF porn.

Tssss that's nothing...

When you realize that your former highschool sweetheart will soon reach menopause... THAT'S the tipping point...

(of the "wall crashing in your face, you should have braked earlier" kind...)

Hmm, maybe they were behind this story. Or it's some kind of cunningly nefarious Canuckistanian plot.

I don't remember what the mix was...

But sometimes apparently deadly sweet/cheeze combination are in fact good enough to die for...

This particular example is actually making me hungry (and a bit horny... but it's because today the weather look like a Parisian late march springtime so it might not be all fud related)

Also, BigUp for the Victorian turtleneck on the kimono... way to wreck the only sensual part of this trainwreck (exposed neck in the back... -it's a slutty cat thing... don't ask...)

Normally, I wouldn't really think too much about either, but in this case, there's only the front option...it's impossible otherwise to create an heirline.

I suspect Taro being behind the whole post, it's certainly not from me.

[Coligny]

Since Taro's L33t H4x0r skillz extend no further than using his cdrom tray as a cupholder (and with those slot loading drives these days, he's pretty much fooked)... I suspect you have a bug on your hands...

At least I can tell people I lived in Japan when it was cool to live in Japan.

"I used to watch Ranma 1/2 on TV you young whippersnappers! I had a widescreen TV before they got popular stateside you wapanese wannabe!"

A gateway indeed.

I wonder if they reversed the L deliberately?

I received this "Cool Japan" update in my email this morning from FG member, den4 ...

Cool Japan has a plan!
http://en.rocketnews24.com/2013/06/02/cool-japan-has-a-plan/
Remember all the talk of a new “Cool Japan Strategy” which aimed to export Japan’s “coolness” abroad. Well, on May 28, the Japanese government’s Cool Japan Promotion Committee announced its action plan!
The Cool Japan Strategy is aimed at promoting the spread of Japanese culture abroad, focusing on modern popular culture as well as food culture. It’s a pretty big deal for the government and makes an appearance in the Abe Administration’s economic growth strategy. Ideas that have found their way into the plan include training Japanese goods experts as “food evangelists” to spread the the faith abroad, and international popularity contests for anime characters...more...

Japanese Government’s 'Uncool' Cool Japan Video Goes Viral
Wall Street Journal blog--August 2, 2013
...a home-made Cool Japan video shot by two ministry officials and uploaded to YouTube last month has attracted so much criticism that it’s gone viral, prompting Japan’s online community to ask: Can something be so uncool that it’s actually cool?
..."The economy ministry’s Cool Japan explanation video was so cool that I feel like I’m catching a cold"...

Lovely (not).
Great choice of music too (not).
But why does it come across looking like a plan for the next incarnation of the Greater East Asia Co-prosperity Sphere?

Actually, I think they did a better PR job back then.
