Learning Japanese?  Hiragana Megane is an excellent online tool (furigana injector) for those of you who enjoy reading Japanese news articles and blogs but struggle to remember the readings of every kanji you come across.  With Hiragana Megane all you have to do is enter the URL of the website or blog you want to add furigana 振り仮名 to and click on the Go button.

The website/blog will then now show furigana above all of the kanji in the text.  There are some  other alternatives such as usingthe Mozilla plug-in Rikaichan, and the slow-and-tedious method of copy/pasting unknown kanji into an online dictionary but we personally find Hiragana Megane quite useful.  Read more...

T-shirts look good on any hot japanese  girls and av idol Maria Ozawa 小澤マリア is no exception.  Last year collaborated with Taiwanese fashion brand Outer Space to produce a limited edition T-shirt which features Maria riding cowboy on one of Outer Space’s comic rockets.   These limited edition t-shirts sold out quickly as expected.

Maria Ozawa also collaborated with t-shirt maker Gawai for a similar limited edition “Japan g-girls private collection”.  Good luck finding this too though you might get lucky on ebay.
