waaah! Haven't been here for so long. Anyway, James Ji attended a festival at Tateyama over the weekend. Tateyama is a fishing town in the Tokyo Bay area. In this festival, he is helping the men carry the "Mikoshi" or something like a vessel of a god or deity. The "deity" is paraded from the temple to the town so people can gather around and pull the ropes and kind of greet it as part of the festivities. It was funny the first time they jumped up and down, I'm not sure if it's because he was too tall or it's because he doesn't bend his knees that much that's why it was a bit off balance since he was taller than the other guys when the jumped.
. I don't know if it's the same as in Christianity, but to carry a Mikoshi is a great honor.
If my memory serves me right, he shot that program about a week before he got his bowl cut (when his bangs was cut straight like a bowl was put in his head. :lmao3: . It's part of 3Zaap i think. It's in youtube.
