Episode description

Chi Chi's first friend in Tokyo arrives out of the neon circuits of Harajuku and Shinjuku and Kabukicho, Tokyo, to fuse together three pieces of film concerning beautiful white foreign women in Japan: LOST IN TRANSLATION, HBO GIRLS and THE RAMEN GIRL. The vision they piece together is a lonely trial of the soul, video game texture mexaplexes, cat cafes, a creation of the self via exposure to the exterior, Pocari Sweat, reckless collage of stereotype, atomic bombs and -- I DON'T UNDERSTAND!
