Japanese TV Show

Just had to share this. There is a Japanese game show where the point seems to be to take guys and dress them up as girls.... the results are incredible.

You can see some of the shows on YouTube here http://uk.youtube.com/user/HoneyBee331

I have no idea what they are saying or exactly what is going on. But it's interesting anyway!

I've seen a few clips of that before, they look amazing don't they! They start off with some feminine looking boys though. I'd love to have some of it translated

This sort of thing could catch on which must worry every CCTV operator in the country provided that no-one went full-time. Obviously the all female audience were excited by the thought of a girl-friend that could vibrate provided that he hadn't had it chopped off which somewhat spoils the spin.

This reminds me of a Japanese musician I've developed something of an obsession with. Known as Mana (or Mana-sama to use his full honorific), he's a Goth/rock/metal musician who masquerades as one of the most stunning women I've ever seen. To check him and his work out, go onto YouTube and type either his name (either version), or the name of either of the two bands he's been involved with: Malice Mizer or Moi dix Mois.

@Zozimus - I've met some Mana fans and my head really spins when I see girls cosplaying as him.

Girls dressed as boys dressed as girls? Oh, I've gone cross-eyed ^_^

^Were they Japanese? It never ceases to amaze me how much crazy shit the Japanese come up with given how outwardly conformist their country and culture are (maybe it's all just one big release valve). Bizarre stuff like this sometimes makes me wish I'd been born Japanese myself; whenever it does, though, I remind myself that if I had been born a Japanese guy, I'd probably have ended up becoming some hapless office drone working 18 hours a day every day until I'd dropped dead of overwork at the age of, oh, say, 50.
