Zeroyon, Rolling, and Gurachan Zoku

90s era offshoots of the Bosozoku.
They are different from Bosozoku. The Gurachan are the coolest lol
What the Gurachan are doing is so unique and I think artistic.
If they were in a more welcoming country, they probably would be much more respected for their artistic ability and efforts. But in Japan most people just see them as idiots lol

I like Bosozoku more. I wish they would make a comeback.



.

Although the Bosozoku are dying, they seem to have reappeared in other countries like in South Korea. It is strange how they are celebrating independence from Japan by using a Japanese Subculture. Alot of Koreans told me this is not Japanese, but even the word bosozoku is Japanese.





I guess it is similar to Chinese people singing anti-Japanese songs while enjoying a Japanese pasttime Karaoke. Or anti-western activists using the internet to spread anti-american messages.

The Changing Blue Collar Areas of Japan ~Sanya, Tokyo's Foreigners and Young People~

Recent documentary on a changing Sanya Area of Tokyo.

Formerly known as a dangerous area filled with day laborers, the old Sanya is slowly dissappearing. In its place are westerners who are trying to save as much money possible in expensive Japan and young people who do not even know that the area is known as "Sanya".

I have heard other countries like the USA get very negative when they hear former blue collar areas (such as where Ford Plants used to be) are disappearing. For a country that is supposedly much less welcoming of immigrants, notice how little Japanese think of dissappearing areas such as Sanya. It is even taken as a positive thing. Perhaps there is a different interpretation of "change" among the cultures.

The Only God, Jesus Matayoshi runs for Tokyo Governor

The Great Leader and Political Genius, “The Only God” Jesus Matayoshi, from the island prefecture of Okinawa, has blessed the Tokyo voting boxes with his bid for governor.

His great proposals include returning Japan to a fishing and farming society and banning the smoking of cigarettes while walking. His brilliant political debate style is to just tell his opponents to “DIE AND SLIT YOUR STOMACH OPEN!!!”

He barely received any votes. lol.

Japanese Revolutionary Fascist Koichi Toyama Runs for Tokyo Governor

This is a political broadcast that all candidates, no matter how ridiculous, are allowed to have. If you think about it, it really shows how free of a country Japan is.

When he is not working to destroy nations, he is a musician working for tips on the side of the street.

The Japanese Uyoku (Nationalists)

90s era documentary on the Japanese Uyoku, or Japanese Nationalists. Shows the diversity beneath their stereotype as a group of extremists.

We see some groups that are more like a simple Shintoist religious organization, some that are centered around environmentalism, and some that are openly backed by the Yakuza.
