Greetings from J-List September 18, 2000

in Your Friend in Japan

Greetings from Japan, where Pocari Sweat is always fresh and cold.

Well, we’re extremely glad to say that Japanese Calendar has begun again at J-List. Japanese Calendar Season is a great time when stores in Japan can order the large-size unique Japanese calendars for sale close to the end of the year. J-List makes these really cool calendars available to you, so you can join in on the fun and take a piece of Japan with you through next year. You can preorder the calendars you want between now and around the end of October, and your calendars will come in, probably around a month after you order. When calendar season ends, it ends — calendars completely disappear from Japan until the same time next year.

If you haven’t seen these calendars before, they’re really something special — most are “A2” size, which translates to 23 x 16 inches approximately, and are basically large posters attached by a spine at the top, seven pages (two months per page, with a cover page). One thing they have in common is the beautiful printing on heavyweight paper, which add color and life to any room.

It’s always fun to see how the various singers and idols move around the list, indicating how their popularity has risen or fallen during the past year. Singer and CM queen Hamasaki Ayumi bagged the coveted CL-1 position, replacing Suzuki Ami, Glay, Puffy and Amuro Namie as the #1 popular entity in Japan in past years. The ten-member singing group Morning Musume, idol Fukada Kyoko, the individual former members of Speed, and the incredibly popular busty smiling girl Yuka also made strong showings. Anime calendars that J-List readers might like include Card Captor Sakura, Gundam Wing, Sailor Moon (yes

Incidentally, we apologize for the smallness of the calendar pictures. Unfortunately, all we currently have to work with is a small poster with tiny pictures of the calendars, which we’ve spent time scanning and polishing as best we can. The calendars are actually large size, beautifully printed works of art, yet the scans on the site (which show the front pages of each calendar) are quite small.

In addition to the full listing of 2001 calendars, we have a bunch of great new items:

  • First, tons ‘o brand new magazines, including the new Bejean (Kanazawa Bunko, Kawashima Azumi, Kusanagi Jun), the bold Gokuh (very artistic nude performance by Kumano Pu-ko), the delicious new Gal’s Dee (“busty revolution”), and the pretty new Suppin
  • We have a fantastic new photobook in the Tennyo series, by the incredibly talented Masaaki Miyazawa, this time featuring the angelic Aoi Minori — this book is so good, it’s got both me and Tomo stopping work to steal glances at it
  • Three more copies of Fubuki Akira’s dynamite photobook “So Long”
  • There’s a new adult dojinshi on the dojinshi page, featuring great King of Fighters, Viper and Battle Athletes erotic play
  • There are several new erotic manga on the manga (new releases) page, including a new release in the “Meganekko DX” series by Tsukasa, featuring all hentai stories about girls wearing glasses (the Japanese have great imaginations)
  • Finally, a very cool video item from SOD, Morishita Kurumi’s “Lesbian Love Hell, in which she boldly explores the world of lesbian sex and more. It’s 100 minute video that looks to be extremely interesting for fans of Kuru Kuru” (to use Kurumi’s nickname). (We have only one in stock currently. If it sells out, remember that you can find it on the SOD Special Order videos page.)

Well, thanks for checking out J-List, and please see the new 2001 calendars, now!
