Densha Otoko

by Rafael at 18:19


Everton brought, after three months of hard work on arubaito, this j-drama that has just finished to go on tv when he had to come back to Brazil.
It's about an otaku who saved a girl from a molester and, with some help, his wish to be with her. What makes Densha Otoko interesting is that the main character represents a stereotype which has become more present in Japan over the last years, specially over the last decade.

Who

My photo
São Paulo, SP, Brazil
Open-minded, skeptical and daydreamer.

What

Wishes

  • A motorcycle
  • A monocycle

Why

The theme was started by looking through some Maurits Cornelis Escher pictures, which are physically impossible to exist, but definately possible to be drawn, when the Horseman picture was found.
To fit this background, some arabic/islamic pictures were seen when I finally found the current header one, which fits perfectly into the arabic/islamic idea of the Escher picture and the idea of traveling as a need, for ponderings and reflections, and how one's decision makes part of other's life.
