I think prices change a lot depending on the country. Here in Spain even if sometimes the product might be better is always going to be cheaper than in Japan.
My International Commerce teacher travelled a lot to Japan and taught us about how some exports from Europe (like belgium chocolate or our spanish oil) get ridiculously high prices in Japan because people know those are the best in the world. So I guess Rina and Aiai aren't dumb and went for french and italian things. Specially Rina looks like a high class girl.
Off topic when it comes to Ebichu but I don't buy macarons in the supermarket :)) We have quite a renounded patissier who even makes the monuments of the city with sugar:
Spoiler:
Now I want to eat something. We need a thread to post pictures of food of our diffferent countries
Did I miss something, no show this week? If there were a show does anyone know where I can find it? I had to change my weekend routine because I couldn't find the show. I am an "old" man, I don't like changes. ;-)
^ The guy who usually upload those episodes to youtube is not doing it again. So unfortunately we have to wait util someone upload the video to dailymotion :)
I found out a way to download youku vids (in case you dont know, or to fill your Ebibaru collection just like me haha). Just add the xia in front of the youku direct link. It will turn out like http:// v.xiayouku... and the page will split the video in 4 parts and you can download part by part (by right click then save as.. or with IDM). It does work. And not as lag as youku does. It's about ~100MB. I think from now on it's all up to youku :(.. A great thanks to 魔友友圆屁屁Z.
So what are the "mystery box" challenges called? They've become pretty much my favorite thing in any variety show, even if nobody will ever be able to top Momoka for "best reactions."
I feel like she kind of came out of her shell overnight. She's always been one of the better singers of the group, but was always mostly in the background in stuff prior to this show. And then in the last few months she's become one of the biggest personalities both on the show and on stage.
