[What is behind PonPonPon] きゃりーぱみゅぱみゅ

Japan can blow my mind with this PonPonPon stuff. This video was directed (I think) by Sebastian Masuda - the owner of 6% doki doki and this is a shop for "extreme kawaii (extreme cute)" ~ so they say ~ stuff.
This video is a priceless Harajuku fashion style demonstration at its best.

This Harajuku stuff that are so popular in Japan and in some parts of the world.
原宿 (Harajuku) is the common name of an area around Harajuku Station, and it gathers around some gothic lolita(young girls dressed in gothic cloths), visual kei (some eccentric way of dressing up with make up and some rock attitude), decora (tons of accessories) and, yep, some cosplayers(dress up like anime characters). They socialize with each other and they are quite happy.

see? they are happy a lot.

How this fashion style works? I mean, how something can be Extreme Kawaii (Extreme cute).
So, for example, if pink (color) is something cute, they gonna use something extremely pink. Got it?

Yeah, I know. Quite confusing. So warchildPost will give you some tip on putting things on the extreme side. Let me try translate this concept with something around my world of violence and pain... Ok. So... If you break a nail, the Harakuju style would be something like, cutting your entire finger off. Hah, now you got it?

Ok, but they are about being cute, so you got no harm at all. Too bad. This きゃり (Kyari, the girl in the video) used to be a customer of the 6%doki doki shop. And asked for the manager to help with a video clip or something, and you got this.

A male lolipop can fall in love with this. maybe.

Sebastian (the guy at first pic in yellow and with a black hat) is quite a cool guy with some cool concept ideas like "do what you like and feel it is nice". You can see as an example the logo of his shop. Why 6% and not 100% or something like that. His explanation is quite eccentric. He says that, 6 and % have a lot of circles, so it match a lot inside another circle making the perfect combination for the logo (as you can see above).

Dang catchy song and weird stuff going around. Somehow it remembers me the Blanka stage soundtrack. The girl of the video clip is quite a superstar in Japan. And you probably don't know shit (or are at the same ground) as me. I have no problem with weird stuff, since I am the guy who thinks that people should stick with they feel it is right. So, goes on.

If I commit some mistakes translating this entire new (for us) culture in the blog, please let me know. Since this is not my culture at all and my Nihongo is quite poor, I can get some misinterpretation around the corner...so yeah. Anyway! Thats that. The PonPonPon is not only some -another- Japanese "weird" video clip at random. It is something "weird" with a whole concept behind it. haha. But that doesn't matter if one doesn't know that. At lay eyes, this is just weed. But now you know!

Blame Otaku-verse Zero ( #OVZero ) for this.
I was living a happy life, and saw this at their show.
