Remembering Japanese cars from the past
This video shows the amazing biking skills of two Taiwanese kids:
Not only has this little girl great parallel parking skills, she and her brother can also drift the corners of the corridors in their appartment.
Their Youtube movies already became a big (internet) hit in Taiwan and they already featured on national TV:
Simply amazing!
Now, how do I learn my son to do that? ;)
I did post some Seibu Keisatsu movies before, but this one is the most hilarious one I’ve seen so far! Okay, it is not an official Seibu Keisatsu movie, but this spoof does contain all the key elements: crooks, cars, guns, Chief Daimon, and Chief Daimon. Did I mention Chief Daimon already?
I had a good laugh about this funny video showing how to drive a pickup truck GTA style in real life:
Especially the Yakuza element was hilarious! Those guys did an incredible job with their imitation!

Facebook fan Brad Hogan sent me a couple of tokusatsu videos through Facebook. Two of them were Kikaider videos and they are quite hilarious:
He actually fights his enemies by driving over them with his sidecar while drifting his motorcycle. :D
For people who are (like me)unknown with Kikaider, the Wikipedia article says this:
Kikaider (????????? Jinz? Ningen Kikaid??, lit. Artificial Humanoid Kikaider) is a Japanese superhero created by Shotaro Ishinomori. The character has appeared in manga, tokusatsu, and anime.
Paying tribute to Astro Boy, created by his mentor Osamu Tezuka, Ishinomori used the stories of Carlo Collodi’s Pinocchio (which was also the basis for Astro Boy) along with Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein as the basis for his science fiction action story.
Kikaider, the main character, is a humanoid robot, built by Dr. Komyoji to protect himself and his children from the dark Android commanded by the evil Professor Gill, the leader of a terrorist organization called DARK.
Well, he sure does look a bit like Frankenstein! :D
This compilation is also fantastic:
As you can see he travels around on his motorcycle with sidecar and a guitar on his back. He can walk on walls and whenever he transforms into Kikaider his sidecar magically moves to the other side! :D
Thanks Brad! I had a good laugh! :D
Time to feed you some more tokusatsu! An 8 minutes Kamen Rider compilation with the heroic Kamen Rider song in the background!
I think I got enough of the rubber suits, big explosions, bad kung fu, bosozoku wannabes and sung heroic poems for the next three months! ;)
Ever seen Star Trek dubbed in a different language? You may have, but it is nowhere near to this Japanese dub of the first episode:
Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock both have almost the same voice over so it is hard to distinguish them. Too bad Scotty does not feature in this prologue…
Another shot from the same episode:
It is really weird to see all those American actors speak fluent Japanese. I only wonder what they did with the voice of Hikaru Sulu. :D :D
