Japan Probe

So, for anyone interested in Japan I would like to turn you on to Japan Probe.

Japan Probe covers Japanese news and culture*... but only really stuff that foreigners would find interesting**. Stuff like Japan's wacky attempts at black comedy:

Keep in mind, of course, that blackface lacks its cultural significance over there. Also apparently they have a thing for bizarre impressions.

*if you can tune out all the "Japanese women for lonely white nerds" adds
**you know, monkeys in silly costumes, overt racism, etc.
