WTF?!?
I'll never stop being amazed at what they advertise at 7:30am on Saturday mornings during kids shows. If it's not wonder bras, it's the latest Pachinco machine.
NB: Pachinco is basically slots and is insanely popular in Japan. It's also advertised to the extreme and is thought of, not as an addiction but as a past time. Often in class when I ask as student what their hobbies are, they'll answer "Pachinco". People of all ages say this. Drives me up the wall. How is that a "hobby".
Mind you a lot of people's hobbies also includes "sleeping". (no kidding)

Welcome. My name's Brad and I'm about to start my fifth year in Tokyo, Japan though lately I've found that that defines me as badly as saying I'm from Sydney, Australia.
