With Akemi’s birthday less than a month away, I’ve started perusing various online sites for the perfectly unique birthday gift.
What follows are some of the more – uh – remarkable offerings available for you to order from JapanTrendShop.com:
You too can smell like a sumo wrestler!
His an Hers.
I wasn’t even aware this was a thing.
This gum would have come in so handy these past few months.
I’m not sure…I don’t even…I just don’t know.
So elegant-looking!
Okay. Finally, this is something I can get behind.
For those long-haul flights.
Yep. My pet peeve when I go out for drinks is to get a mug that’s practically all beer and hardly any foam!
How else is your dog going to get his/her exercise?
Who doesn’t like robots? And love to laugh?
Fix your face!
To be saved for later use?
Decisions, Decisions…
Dude, this is Akemi you are shopping for….
you can do sooooooo much better than this selection.
We believe in you….
one month? better get cracking.
Well, the doggie samurai armor is kinda cute.
*wave*
True! 🙂
I’m betting that the left-over bathwater drink will be the next big gift idea for those hard to buy for folks! I wonder if they’ll offer, for a premium of course, celebrity bath water? Freshly decanted from the tub of your favorite star! Also available in 2lt bottles to share with your friends!
But maybe you might want to keep on looking for Akemi!
My orthodontist recommends a mouth exercise for TMJ syndrome that’s similar to the first “fix your face” photo.
Speaking of Japan, who else saw the first episode of Christiane Amanpour’s new CNN (USA cable network) series?

Um. Shouting vase.
I miss Japan so much. Been perusing the AirBnB listings, so cheap. Hmmm.
Well now that you have gone and posted all these great ideas on your blog, you have ruined the surprise for Akemi, silly! Now you are going to have to just get her something boring like a new purse or a beautiful dress. How about a publisher… for her Suji Children’s Books? 🙂
Re: That last item,
We’re gonna need a bigger vase.
Oh Joe, I’m lost for words.
That Taruman Mouth Exercise thingy looks like a choking hazard waiting to happen.
The DragonBall TP looks amazing, though!
Gozilla ! from Japan FTW!!
Omg I need that dragon ball toilet paper $69 for 72 rolls and just $151 for shipping is a bargain for Super saiyan butt wipe.
Face exercisers or Orwellian torture devices? Gonna have chills for a while. Bath water drink, yikes. The one standout is samurai pet armor; Lulu can finally unleash her inner ronin, wanderling the land righting wrongs. I don’t think they make armor teeny tiny enough for Suji. I finished all six books of KF Breene’s Warrior Chronicles, it was a Kevin Sorbian feudal adventure with fun characters, magic and battles galore.
How do you get all that reading done and still have time to find these “treasures” on the internet?
OK, I have the perfect gift for you for Akemi. A dog eating coin bank.
Cute as hell and fun. Yes, I have one. Works best with quarters.
If its been a bad day, all too frequent it seems, I toss in a coin and soon I’m feeling better.
Here’s a link. Hopefully the link shows up.

Ugh…stupid link.
