Gundam Christmas Tree In Akihabara

Bandai’s Gundam Christmas Tree has been illuminated next to Akihabara UDX Building and it is looking really cool with the 60 Gunpla kits hanging on the tree.

The Gunpla kits are being packed like presents in tranparent boxes and hung onto the tree:

And here’s a youtube clip of the tree as well:

I would like try to steal on Gunpla kit from the tree every night and have a fruitful X’mas ^^

Japanese funeral customs are completely different to those of the West. After death, a new spiritual name (kaimyo) is given to a deceased person by a Buddhist priest and is handpainted or printed onto their wooden sotoba (or Buddhist 'namestick'), and then placed alongside the tomb for the first 49 days following death and then again on certain anniversaries. In some cemeteries, such as this one, the sotoba are left up permanently. The characters for these kaimyo are usually very old and rarely used ones, and few people nowadays can read them. This image was taken in a very old cemetery in Yanaka in north-east Tokyo.

The Cove exposes the slaughter of more than 20,000 dolphins and porpoises in Taiji, Japan every year, and how their meat, containing toxic levels of mercury, is being sold as food in Japan and other parts of Asia, often labeled as whale meat. The majority of the world is not aware this is happening as the Taiji cove is blocked off from the public. The focus of the Social Action Campaign for The Cove is to create worldwide awareness of this annual practice as well as the dangers of eating seafood contaminated with mercury and to pressure those in power to put an end to the slaughter.

Slaughtered for Their Meat (despite the levels of mercury! & being packaged as "Whale Meat") & Captivity Capture to places like Seaworld & Dolphinariums (which is how they make their Money!!)
