The title of this blog is: "American Pop Culture Invades Japan"
All over Japan, (well, at least Tokyo and parts of Kyoto) there are people standing on the corner handing out things. Tissue with an advertisement for a pachinko parlor, coupons for getting your hair cut, fans with DVD rental information on it. Things like this are everywhere. Even McDonald's gets into the game with coupons for their Fish McNuggets with Wasabi Dipping Sauce.
So, I am sure that if you are alive, you are aware of McDonald's new commercial campaign. You know, the "I'm Lovin' It" jingle. Well, in Japan, they have the same little jingle. (I saw it on Japanese TV with my very own eyes.) So, when I was handed the coupon for the reduced price Fish McNuggets with Wasabi Dipping Sauce, there were some Japanese girls behind me that were given the same prize. And then, I heard them sing the Jingle. "I'm Lovin' It."
So, in conclusion, stupid American pop culture has invaded Japan.
