A humorous and action-packed story about a class of misfits who are trying to kill their new teacher – an alien octopus with bizarre powers and super strength! The teacher has just destroyed the moon and is threatening to destroy the earth – unless his students can destroy him first. What makes things more complicated is that he's the best teacher they've ever had!

The television anime series premiered in Japan on January 9, and Funimation streamed the series as it aired. A second series will premiere in 2016.

Omori is known for The Whispering Of The Gods (2005), which played at Locarno Film Festival, and The Ravine Of Goodbye (2013), which won the jury prize at the Moscow International Film Festival. His last film, Taro The Fool (2019), also touched on the issue of delinquency and under-privileged youth.

Gaga also recently picked up international rights to Keisuke Toyoshima’s documentary, Mishima: The Last Debate, featuring restored footage of a famous debate between Yukio Mishima and students at Tokyo University in 1969, just one year before Mishima’s death.

Japanese adult video actress hugs over 3000 fans in 24-hour event in Shibuya

mobitv 2024. 02. 02. 9:44

Japanese adult video actress Eimi Fukada, known for her erotic films, held a 24-hour-long event where she hugged each of her fans who queued up to see her.

Fukada, 24, held the event in Shibuya, Tokyo, at 6pm on Aug. 27. When she made the announcement, she said she wanted to be "the most hugged woman in the world".

According to Daily Japan, Fukada only took one three-hour break and a few 10-minute breaks throughout the entire event.

She didn't have time to sleep, even at night, and by the end of the event she was "completely exhausted".

However, she thanked her fans after the event, saying she was able to do her best thanks to everyone's help.

Yahoo (Japan) reported that Fukada had some costume changes during the event -- she wore a traditional yukata, a bunny outfit, an "office lady" outfit and a "China dress" (cheongsam).

Participants did not have to pay for the hug, but a smartphone photo cost 1,000 yen (S$10.10). Fans could also purchase merchandise.

During the event, fans had to keep their arms by their sides or back, and refrain from returning Fukada's hug.

The event proved to be extremely popular among her fans, several of whom were male.

At one point in the early morning of Aug. 28, event organisers stopped people from queueing up as the response was too overwhelming. The queue later resumed at 10am.

The event was streamed live on YouTube, and you can catch a glimpse of it here.

Chihayafurus Suzu Hirose Considered Most Disliked Female Celebrity

mobitv 2024. 01. 31. 7:08

Suzu Hirose, who portrays Chihaya in the live-action version of Chihayafuru and Kaede in The Boy and The Beast, is considered the most loathed female celebrity by Japanese women in their 20s, according to a major advertising agency. The research hasn't been officially published yet, but according to an employee, "Compared to her popularity after her breakthrough, it's unexpected that she's getting this much backlash. On top of the June comments that belittled her staff, the reason that 20-something women dislike her is that she comes off as a burikko [girls who affect cloying cuteness to attract boys]."

The incident referred to occurred on an episode of the variety show Tunnels no Minasan no Okage Deshita ("Thanks to All of Tunnels") on June 18, when the 17-year-old actress was asked what type of person she likes. She replied that she liked people with her sort of personality — "fairly cold and very dry. The kind that can't go 'Wow' even when they see bright lights. Even though I realize how much effort the people who hung them in such high places put in." She then went on to wonder why people would want to become lighting technicians. "And the sound engineers too, even though they exert themselves, why spend your life recording an actress's voice?... It really makes me wonder... If you've really grown up and put on years, are you really O.K. with just recording voices?" The comments provoked a backlash on Twitter, and she swiftly apologized for "comments that caused misunderstandings among the staff that always takes care of me."
