Japanese Theatre Artform



Olympics done Matrix-style.

Kasou Taishou is a semi-annual show on NTV (Japan) in which various amateur groups (or solo artists) perform short skits, which are rated by a panel of judges. Especially in recent years, many of the skits have revolved around clever methods of "faking" cinematic special effects on a live stage. Amazing Lo-Fi effects that really come across well. Please please check these out!


The reason she got mad at me.
