A Hello Kitty Christmas

A few weeks ago Katie invited me down to to Chiba to a shopping mall near Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo Disney Sea to watch a special Hello Kitty Christmas stage show.

Normally Japanese Christmas shows are weird to say the least, normally hosted by a patronising female bimbo with a voice that could give the Chipmunks a run for their money in the voice department. This show didn't let me down there plus we got two large mascots dancing on stage while singing familiar Christmas songs in nail-on-chalkboard-Japanese.

As the show drew to a close (actually even Katie had had enough) the three crazies on stage decided to do a flag dance to Jingle Bells.... how appropriate. Huh.

Unfortunately I didn't get to take a video of the bizarre Bingo game before the show where the crazy girl screamed out "BINGO...STARTO!!!" before "BINGO...STARTO!!!" drawing "BINGO...STARTO!!!" every "BINGO...STARTO!!!" damn "BINGO...STARTO!!!" number "BINGO...STARTO!!!" for "BINGO...STARTO!!!" half "BINGO...STARTO!!!" an "BINGO...STARTO!!!" hour "BINGO...STARTO!!!". Only in Japan.
