Japan Pulse

Pulsations? Glad you asked. They’re links to fresh stories and visuals about Japan, shout-outs to fellow bloggers, and highly clickable stuff that we think you might enjoy.

In no particular order, they are …

• Sci-Fi illustrations by Shigeru Komatsuzaki (from Pink Tentacle): Back to the retro future.
• An interview with Durf (from JapanNewbie): Meet the man behind the ski goggles, power Twitter user and translator Peter Durfee
• Eerie monotones of the White Stone Mine (from Gakuranman): Tinted glimpses of Japan’s “top 5″ haikyo
• Ramen books and magazines (from Ramen Adventures): A peek into the library of a noodle hunter.
• Rajio Taiso no. 4 (from Sgt. Tanuki’s Lonely Hearts Club Blog): Rajio Taiso, how do we love thee, let us count the ways.
• Soseki on history (from No-sword): ”For the sake of the future, our past is trampled as though it never existed.”
• Softbank & iPhone4 (from Blog from Another Dimension): Simply must have that shiny new phone? Caveat emptor.
• Shaved ice goes upscale and global (from Ampontan): An homage to a seasonal delight: the humble and historical kakigori
