Tomodachi in Shibuya
January 12, 2009
I saw this huge new ad for the 2nd 20th Century Boys movie on my way home last night. Just before I saw this, I also caught a “performance” in front of the station by a guy wearing an open yukata revealing a thong; he shook around and howled as if in a violent seizure for about 5 minutes before taking a bow and passing around a money box.
Note: Directly translated, “It is Time to Continue” or possibly “It is Time for the Sequel”. I think that time to proceed is much more menacing and Tomodachi-like. I can’t stand it when translators aren’t willing to take minor liberties with stuff, it turns out so stiff and boring. Dr. Senbei, what do you think about this?
