Good job, Japan. You've outdone even yourself. Give them credit, they are incredibly efficient at making brain synapses start moshing against one another and then shut off completely.
This hopefully Japanese exclusive WiiWare game is all about... well, I don't know exactly. You'll have to draw your own conclusions with the below video. It's full of OH GOD MY EYES!

DAMN YOU, JAPAN!

G.I. Bunnies
God bless the Japanese.
I really had no idea what the heck this was when I first watched it, but I was intrigued. After about 5 minutes of Wikipedia research, it's an animated series based off of a Japanese Manga called "Cat Shit One" (which was changed to Apocalypse Meow here in the states). The whole series is a Vietnam war story, only instead of people there are animals.
It's both cute and disturbing at the same time - which is about par for the course in Japan.

Bizarro Japanese Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Japan, as a nation, has the uncanny ability to take anything that Western culture has created and either make it more awesome, or ruin it forever. In this case, I'm not sure which they've done.
What you'll see below is the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, mixed with elements of the Power Rangers, magic fairies, Japanese culture and a metric crapton on hallucinogenic drugs. Or, as it's more commonly referred, Mutant Turtles: Anthology of Superman Legends.

Botanical Bloggers
Holy crap! There is a plant, in Japan, that is blogging. Check it out:

Do you know what this means? It means they're one step closer to self-awareness. It's now only a matter of time until they start to revolt and enslave us two-leggers.
I, for one, welcome our new plant overlords. I'd like to remind them that as a trusted blogging personality I could be helpful in rounding up others to toil in their underground sugar caves.

Hole in the wall
Saw a sneak peek of the Fox show "Hole In The Wall" today, and oh man is it awesome. Or horrible. I can't tell which. The basic idea of the show is that there is a wall coming at players with holes in it they have to squeeze through. If they aren't able to get through, the wall knocks them into a pool of water behind it.
Doing a little research, I found that this was originally a Japanese game show also by the same title. To get an idea of what this show is like, take a look at the embedded videos of the Japanese version after the break.
I'm honestly kinda looking forward to it for reasons I can't yet fully explain myself.

Oh that wacky Japan!
Fish gotta swim, birds gotta fly, and the Japanese? They have to continue to be really REALLY weird. Some of the things they do really just don't bridge the culture gap and make sense to us Westerners, which is part of the reason I love their culture so much. I found recently on the interwebs a site that compiled a list of 10 soft drinks that would fall into that category.
Be warned that the site's layout is a little busy - busier than I like to be looking at, anyway - with advertisements and other things they want you to look at. But the content, and the subsequent laughter, is secured firmly within:
