    Pop culture is culture enjoyed by young people. It includes game, music, television, and so on.
    I want to talk about fashion.
    Current teenage fashion Is defined as "kawaii-worthy" fashion.
    The term "kawaii" represents not only cute, but also groovy, styling, and awesome.
    The fashion showcase event Tokyo Girls Collection is very popular event among young women. This even is open for buyers, media, and general public.

    This even was broadcasted for NikoNiko online live. (ニコニコ動画)



    Also, clothes in Tokyo Girls Collection was used for avatars for Gree.
    Young women can enjoy choosing clothes with their avatar, and this can promote them to consume the products.

    Me? I say..... yes... but, well... I think I can't define it correctly. So I google now.


         OK. According to this site, Pop culture is simply what large number of people are interested in. That can be movie, music, comic, game.... Wow so simple!




         Then, in Japan, what is POP now? OK, let me google the word "pop culture in Japan" and see the very first link on the list! カチャカチャカチャ

     There you go. Oh wow! "Japan Pop Culture Festival 2011" !? This might be a good one to get the answer! Why don't I click it??

     I love Japaaaaan!!(*´ロ`)
    It seems Anime is the heart of Japanese pop culture now.
    "Funny country" (TUJ student). I can't leave here.



          Here is a example of social media usage in pop culture. Nico Nico Douga, one of the famous video sharing platform in Japan, has official anime channel. (http://ch.nicovideo.jp/menu/anime) Many of them are free. Amazing!
