Heres a little videoclip directed by McG (Terminator Salvation etc.) and produced by popculture artist Takashi Murakami (LV etc. I have some of his shortfilms up on this blog)
It features Kirsten Dunst running around the electronic shopping otaku district of Tokyo called Akihabara singing the song “Turning Japanese” (made famous by the vapors) with a really colorful outfit on.
This recently released tiny book called “The Otaku Encyclopedia” by Patrick W. Galbraith is probably the best english source for anyone trying to find out more about Otaku culture. Its small but has 248 pages full of japanese pop culture knowledge, so if you dont know what “Otaku” means you just go to the letter O and there you go “a nerd, geek or fanboy…”, its a must get for anyone who is interested in japanese pop culture!
Takashi Murakami is working together with Louis Vuitton again on some brand new projects and has released a short teaser for the new animation called “Superflat First Love“.
Theres another 5min animation by Takashi Murakami after the jump.
