Coolest University webpage ever rips on Dragon Quest, K-On!

Coolest University webpage ever rips on Dragon Quest, K-On! photo



Most University webpages feature cheesy images of students reading books under trees, each accompanied by text that is supposed to draw you into spending tens of thousands of dollars of your money to learn there. What a waste. They might get better results by posting beer pong rakings and hot girl galleries. It would work on me!

Tokyo Zokei University, an art and design school, has a new webpage for high school applicants for their open campus event. They work to play to the interests of the students they hope to attend with this page. Called Zokei Quest, the whole site is presented in an 8-bit RPG fashion, and even has four girls that look similar to the four girls of the anime/manga K-On!. Nice! All of this is set to an 8-bit soundtrack remicinesent of old role-playing games.

Head on over and check out the site.

Dragon Quest? More like MOTHER.
Best College Website EVER!!! I'm in love... now if only I had money to go back to school to get my masters in Japan...
Yeah, looks like a less polished Mother 3. I'd go there to get my Masters.
Agreed. Looks more like Mother.
I agree. It's MOTHER. Not Dragon Quest.
Man, I wish my school's website was that cool...

...I wonder if I can transfer?...
Mother definitely, but I also definitely feel a Pokemon feel to it.
Mother similaraties aside, did you folks miss the title screen that greets you saying "Zokei Quest"?
Alright, they sold me. I'm packing my bags and going to this school.

Uh-oh: Japan passes SOPA-alike, Youtube could be outlawed

Urk. I've always resisted (sometimes illogically), the characterization of Japan as a backwards country ruled by out-of-touch old people and shady corporate special interests. After all, it's easy shorthand for "Crazy Japan" ...

PSA: PlayStation Network Store to go down in Korea

Now yes, I know this site is called "Japanator", which would nominally keep Korean news off our radar - not until we launch our peninsular offshoot "Joseonator", anyway - but I'd think this news is significant enough to put u...

She's Winner! Hatsune Miku's Chrome ad wins at Cannes

Yes, that Cannes. The one in France. Well, the "Direct Lions" part of it anyway, the one that's concentrated on advertising rather than movies (cue snarky comment about all movies being ads anyway). Hatsune Miku, everyone's ...

Hulu is coming to Japan

I love me some Hulu. US Hulu, that is. The funny thing is that I mostly watch Japanese stuff on it! You get some J-drama on there and I'll never need anything else. I think Japan will love it just as much as I do. Hulu has re...

HUGE Anime DVD/BD Sale at Zavvi.com for Euro peeps

No one ever likes spending money. In a way, we're all greedy pricks and are sticklers for anything that saves us a little dough. However, whenever we at Japanator mention a sale or discount for anything, people outside of the...
