Japanese Idol Abused in Cebu

Japanese filmmakers come to our beautiful islands to make movies, and how do we welcome them? We detain them, take their money, take their equipment, humiliate them, and blacklist them. That’s what happened to actress Miyawaki Yuki (aka Kaoruko Wakaba) and her crew in Cebu. They were fined $260 each, deprived of five video cameras, paraded before the press, and banished from our shores — all because some puritanical provincial politicians decided to play perverted peeping toms.

I feel ashamed to be Filipino right now.

Only a true anime fan could deliver such a credible performance of such a timeless classic, and Shocotan delivers in spades.

This is Shocotan’s third music video, and it’s her best to date — less bubblegum, more geekiness. Also check out her other two videos, Brilliant Dream and Strawberry Melody. Click here to continue reading “Shocotan Performs Dragon Ball End Theme”…
