All Nippon Airways (ANA) has started a campaign, "Is Japan Cool?" to entice American travelers to visit Japan.

According to the New York Business Journal:

The folks at All Nippon Airways sure hope we Americans think Japan is cool. The Japanese airline, which flies daily nonstop from New York's JFK to Tokyo, is launching a concerted push in the United States this month to entice Americans to visit the carrier’s home country. 

To help generate interest in Japan and its culture, ANA has developed a colorful Website, www.ana-cooljapan.com, filled with short videos that introduce viewers to different parts of the country and to unusual aspects of the Japanese lifestyle.

I perused ANA's site and there's some interesting "cool" subjects to look at.  Unfortunately, no kaiju-related items (aren't those cool?) but giant robots were.  Perhaps they'll add some kaiju later.
