Anime, Otakism and the Rantings of Japanese Popular Culture
This happened to be my first Amazon Japan order using my own money, and also the biggest package I received from Amazon Japan too.
Before this, I had to approach my parents each time I wanted something from an online store. It was really inconvenient, especially since there was the possibility of them rejecting, saying “Didn’t you just order something recently?”
A peek at the loot right after the break.
The Japanese Otakus have once again proven that they are the Spartans of the consumer world.
Unless you have been living under a rock without any internet, you would know of the popular online shop named Amazon. We, anime fans should know it exceptionally well, as Amazon Japan is one of our few sources which we can obtain our limited edition Region 2 DVDs, as well as our anime soundtracks. Too bad they don’t ship games or figurines. If they did, I would be frequent their services.
Anyway, that’s not the point of this post. The main juice is stated in the title. In all of Amazon’s entire online business history, do you know where is the furthest destination they have shipped to, and what was shipped? Since this is an anime blog, this piece of news has definitely a link to anime. <hint>It’s a DVD</hint>
Try guessing, but if you still don’t know, you’ll find out after the jump.
