i was in japan from 2001-2003 and its funny when i look back and called it and knew that naruto and bleach would come to the states
i saw it first premiered their and people were really big on it there and told myself this some shyt that would go over really good stateside i even saw the military soldiers start to get into it when i told them what channel and time it came on shyt caught on real quick
then i heard bout bleach and said that also would too the manga came out i couldnt read it so i had one of my japanese females read that shyt for me
all im saying its funny how where ur in another country and something really popular blows up u know the US gonna try to snatch it up or copy it with their own version
we do it with alot of the game shows prime example would be WIPEOUT

I think they had a scene where a guy was threatening a kid with one of these
Which was probably a pistol in the original.
