I'm practically in tears over here after watching the following clip. Every time I think Japan's neurons have stopped firing off original and good ideas something comes and kneecaps me while I'm looking away. Today, this something is The Legend of Koizumi, a short animation (that looks to be part of a series) about former PM Junichiro Koizumi and his, umm, "diplomatic efforts" with North Korea's Kim Jong Il. Koizumi was a charismatic and popular PM during his tenure and this video demonstrates just why the people loved him so. Let's watch the show:
There's so much goodness here, from the apoplectic G.W. Bush falling over on a segway to former PM Taro Aso (whose hometown is just a couple cities over from Kusu) taking out a sniper with a bit of fancy shooting of his own.
Genius.
