Valentines Day is unique in Japan; only women give gifts. (Although, there are signs this is changing). Men give white chocolate one month later; White Day on March 14th..
Why? I think it helps men avoid social mistakes of what to give to whom. Although, it mainly has to do with chocolate companies creating another lucrative holiday.
Actually, this video doesnt have much to do with Japanese Valentines Day, but it was released around that time. (What you see in the video is more common on Christmas; Christmas is ‘dating’ season in Japan..)
I stumbled into an adult shop and filmed some of the items on sale. Youll see magic mushrooms (now illegal), and other types of stimulants. There are also some shots of popular love hotels in Shibuya.. Sex, drugs, and love hotels.
The television studio is a sparse mix of a wall map and two green plants. As the weather anchor begins reading the next days forecast snow in Niigata and sunny skies across Kanto a gust of wind suddenly knocks her to one side.
Though giggling slightly, the journalist straightens her top-heavy frame and continues, fumbling a few lines but maintaining eye contact with the rolling camera while she firmly grips her notes.
The breeze increases, so much so that her black skirt and white long sleeves suddenly disappear in the rush, leaving the determined newswoman clad in only lace panties and an extremely loose-fitting black bra in which to announce the rain in Sendai.
Two Japanese cosplay girls fight on stage at an erotic show in Shibuya. This event was tame that evening.. The nightmares finally stopped a few months ago..
