Tokyo Maid Cafe Christmas Party

I’ve been to a lot of Christmas parties this year, but I haven’t seen anything quite like this: a Tokyo maid cafe Christmas party.

As more Filipino otaku gain more disposable income, we might see a maid cafe in Manila. Then maybe the nightclubs would face some competition for my evenings.

Guild Wars GameStop Holiday Ad

I like ads that demonstrate an understanding of what they’re selling. In Guild Wars Eye of the North, Ogden Stonehealer is grumpy, Pyre Fierceshot is angry, and Vekk is boastful. They’re all portrayed hilariously in this Holiday machinima ad for GameStop. Yes, we actually do celebrate Christmas in Guild Wars — where we more accurately call it Wintersday. Download the high-quality version of this ad here.

In related news, Eye of the North is now open to beginners. Join me up north and I’ll show you a big-ass frozen dragon.
