Studio Ghibli and Miyazaki-sensei definitely make me feel thankful.

But, er, Goro-kun, not so much...


"And I ain't in it for the power,
And I ain't in it for my health
I ain't in it for the glory of anything at all
And I sure ain't in it for the wealth
But I'm in it till it's over and I just can't stop
If you wanna get it done,
You gotta do it yourself..."

Video Games, Electronics or VHS. Let's face it, only a few percent of the world likes Manga, Anime, Japanese Music and Fashion and none of those really made a big impact in the world. While most of the popular Video games and electronics are Japanese made, the VHS tape may be obselete these days but it made a huge impact back then.
