Disney, and in particular its maddening little mouse, have a preposterously powerful grip on the Japanese psyche, with Tokyo Disneyland being the most visited theme park in the world. The mindboggling number of visitors almost allowing somebody to be singled out as a weirdo if they haven’t been welcomed into the magic kingdom at least once.
And then there’s the merchandise, which covers everything from t-shirts to, erm, tomatoes. Yes, after festooning every feasible object with cute little characters, Disney has now deemed it necessary to devour the dinner table.
There again, with Hello Kitty happily hawking sausages, then why not?
There's also the option of following Tokyo Times by full feed RSS, and now Twitter too.

Personally I don’t eat anything that isnt hand-grown by Mikey.
And Euro-Disney is the least visited theme park in the world… Funny.
