John Salem's Japanese Blog

After searching the interwebs for a while, I have found numerous separate Katakana phrases. One example of Katakana that immediately jumped into my mind was the Katakana used in Jojos Bizarre Adventure. In the attached picture Jotaro Kujo, one of the main characters of the anime is surrounded by Katakana that read as GOGOGOGOGO to create an air of mystery. Another example I found was on the Japan Foundation website, where the katakana  ハイライト  were present, translating to hairaito in romaji or highlights in English.

I've consumed quite a bit of Japanese entertainment throughout my life, and have connected with a number of characters. Despite this, one character reigns over all others as my favorite: Spike Spiegel from Cowboy Bebop. Spike is the best part of what is one of my favorite shows of all time, mostly due to his complex personality and thought provoking personality. Those combined with his fighting style make him impossible to take your eyes off of.
