That my passion for Japan, is not as excitable as it was. I do no longer get overly excited over a Japanese person, or any reference to Japan. I do, i must admit, often feel the glimmer of adernalin when there is a reference related to Japan, but it is only faint. This revelation occured when i was watching Battle Royale 2 on Film4. Film4, how it appears so many times in my life. It was were i had discovered my passion for Japan with the film Death Note, and were a case study had to be endeavored for Media Studies. It did not surprise me that it broadcasted Battle Royale, in which i knew the first one was amazing.
However i became bored, but this was partly due to the fact that i could not push my first love away. Books. I was reading my most favourite novels; The Black Magician Triology. My mined wondered to the tv to watch Battle Royale 2, but it could not hold my attention, not even the Japanese men. And it was there, on such a sad note, that like many of my obsession, that my fetish had passed. However, it will always have a secret place in my heart.
