Maria Ozawa Chocolate Ad

Before she became an idol, Japanese-Canadian Maria Ozawa did a commercial. Here she is in a 2002 ad for Morinaga Dars chocolate, portrayed in a love triangle with Japanese pop duo KinKi Kids.

Personally, I much prefer her more recent work.

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.
