Space Monkey Punks from Japan

Photo
I kept seeing issues of this new magazine called Kera Boku, which I was assumed was Kera-for-boys (Kera being a fashion magazine that showcases various kinds of street fashion— from ‘punk’ to gothic to lolita and beyond). Then I finally noticed the tag line in one of the ads for the new magazine in my latest issue of Kera:
”男のコのスタイル”に変身したい女のコのためのファッションBOOK
(Fashion book for girls that want to dress in/turn into ‘boy style’)
Or, as I like to think of it, PORN MADE JUST FOR MEEEEE.
Whenever a Japanese person asks me my ‘type’, I will just find the cutest model in this magazine and point to her, no other explanation.
I will need to consume large amounts of raw liver before purchasing this magazine (oh, I shall acquire it!) in order to counteract all of the nosebleeds it is sure to cause.
(and if you got the Maria Holic reference, you get a virtual cookie)

Space Monkey Punks from Japan Just a lowly PhD candidate, studying and living in Japan for the foreseeable future.
This blog is mostly for sharing my personal experiences with my friends, but there will probably end up being lots of cultural lessons on Japan/studying abroad/etc etc.

The name comes from the Zilch song "Space Monkey Punks (from Japan)".
