14: OTAKU Past, Present, and Future + Japan Urges Young People to Drink More, Tokyo Olympic Organizer Arrested

Writers Matt Alt (Pure Invention: How Japan Made the Modern World) and Patrick Macias (TokyoScope: The Japanese Cult Film Companion) combine their powers Voltron-style to bring you news, views, and pop culture direct from the Land of the Rising FUN!

FEATURE:

MY LORD! The streets of Tokyo are empty, and the tourists have all run away! Matt Alt and Patrick Macias use this dramatic pause in the space-time continuum to ponder the past, present, and future of otaku culture (DO YOU KNOW?), from the very beginnings, to the mainstreaming of Akihabara, otaku crime, Train Main, the interwebs, and finally… your mom in a Star Wars shirt!
