Apparently, this book is going to portray computer viruses as pretty bishojo girls. Gives me more motivation to do my entry on “moe”. “Kawaii Security” is set to come out on March 14.
More information on “Kawaii Security” can be found here (Japanese). A sample photo can be viewed here.

2-D Anime Body Pillows
“Pure love is completely gone in the real world. As long as you train your imagination, a 2-D relationship is much more passionate than a 3-D one.”
With that said, I’m going to touch on a rather interesting subject that’s been creating a decent amount of attention, anime body pillows. Also known as dakimakura, they are basically pillows with covers of anime characters. A overwhelming majority of these pillows have covers of cute anime girls. There have been instances of people even dating these pillows and treating them as if they were real girlfriends/boyfriends. From a Korean man who married his pillow girlfriend to a Japanese otaku who wants to die with his pillow girlfriend in his arms, you have to wonder if the concept of love is dying & whether we should treat those who love fictional objects a great deal of respect.
