You're going to need a bigger cardboard robot.

Aw. That was pretty cute.

I wonder how popular Jaws is in Japan. I love the film. It really holds up, even today. Though, like many, I am saddened that it has helped stigmatize sharks so much.

This also remind me of a conversation I had with a friend in high school. He thought the concept itself was so stupid that he refused the notion that the fourth film was any worse in terms of the main conflict and storytelling. I think I might have said "Mmmm" in response and nodded for a second to avoid getting into an argument over the cinematic value of Jaws. Ah, memories~

I guess it isn't Miura inside the suit this time. She has been seen to be kind of squeamish about fishing. I think it was chapter 23.

Isn't this character used for Japanese Amazon.com commercials? I think I've seen some of those.

Either way, this is a funny commercial! It's cute!
