The travel website (I guessing that's what it is) FedCamarasEuropeas posted the press release "The Monster Movie Fan's Guide To Japan vs. The Japanese Media."

It is rather bizarre, to put it mildly. If you thought "Engrish" in Japan is funny, then check out their weird posting.

An excerpt:

The planet’s at the arising journey handbook tailored to fans of Japanese knowledge-fiction and anticipation movies, “The Monster Trade show Addict’s Handbook To Japan,” overdue to a prominent splatter stylish the Japanese media.

Chief Armand Vaquer of Tarzana, California just visited Japan and was interviewed effectively “Japan Now,” “The Calculate after calculate Yomiuri” and “Capital” repository subsequent to the debate handbook.

“I was medium honeyed taken all overdue to my dive to Japan,” accepted Vaquer. “All overdue to the Tokyo part of the dive, we was interviewed effectively countless publications and flush had my print full including the Godzilla representation stylish Hibiya, Tokyo. The questions ran the extent of beast trade show locations stylish the debate text to who would unequivocally feat a onslaught between Ruler Kong and Godzilla.”


I'd hazard a guess that the site originally obtained a translated version in some European language and then re-translated it back into English through some computer auto-translating program.

Is This Code For Japanese Love Hotel Rooms For People Not Totally Into It?



On my upcoming trip to Japan, I am staying an extra day in Niigata as the hotel in Tokyo originally said they have no rooms available on one day.

Then, just a short while ago, I received an email from them which said in part:

About 10th of December We still have a room avalable at New Building semi Dabble room.
but the price is 8500yen. Please book it if you like it.

Thank you very much and we are looking forward to seeing you soon.
