Hikaru Utada Wallpapers

Hi everyone! Long time no see!



This time I am going to post a few wallpapers on one of my favourite japanese singers of all time, Hikaru Utada (also known in Japan as Hikki). She is a great singer, speaks perfect english, and has a really sweet special voice. She composes most of the songs herself and has a very different style and feeling to any other singer in the country.



A few months ago she debuted also in the USA... not exactly my style, don't like the songs that much, but I admire her anyway...



Here are some of my favourite wallpapers on her, this is just part one, as I am sure I'll post again with more amazing compositions and/or pictures!!!

Dressed up Fantasies: Japanese Maids

It is quite know that japanese youngsters like to dress up with a lot of costumes, being gothinc, lolita, and much more things. It is also quite known that Japan is a land of perversions where you can find almost everything.

One of the things that do certainly sell more, is the "Maid" (メイド - meido) costumes, being it just for publicity, or being it for entertaining customers in a "Meido kissa" (Maid caffeteria, where young maid-dressed girls will serve you and treat you really nice, and continuosly call you "my master" - such a fantasy, huh?)

This post is dedicated to maid costumes in Japan, quite easy to be seen specially if you go to big electronic or manga/anime shopping areas. Hope you and your computer desktop enjoy it ;)
