It may be rather stereotypical, but I do enjoy a good anime. Granted, there is a lot of garbage anime out there, but there’s also a lot of really good anime (pretty much anything by Hayao Miyazaki). And although most of what I prefer to watch doesn’t contain any idol-esque bimbo chicks that you might expect to see featured in Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball, there is a plethera of anime out there that does contain characters of that nature. Those Japanese sure do love their cartoon women.

Case in point… The Bikini Idol Case Mod (hit the link for lots more pics)

The linked site is in Japanese so I’m not really sure if this case is supposed to represent a specific character or if it’s just supposed to be repesentative of the genre in general, but either way, someone went to a lot of effort to build this. I could make some joke about how lonely he must be, but I bet he gets all sorts of attention at lan parties. And I gotta give props for the determination and skill required to actually build it. If only I had either of those characteristics… oh well.
