Turn Your iPhone Into A Samurai Sword
You know those moments where history cringes at what we’ve done to it? Well here’s one for you. Take a samurai sword. Take an iPhone. Kinda similar. And turn them into one (フュー~ジョン・・・ハっ!).
Now, imagine you are holding one of these as you walk through Tokyo (目立ちがり屋). Holding it up to talk. Taking a picture. Taking a selfie.
You too can be a modern samurai (現代の侍).
There are so many things wrong with this that I realize I want one.
This doesn’t actually exist, and is merely a design idea (as a case/portable battery charger), but what do you think? Want one? The next new fashionable accessory trend?

I have to say I love how “literal” these two “translations” are.
でもさ、何なのこの製品は?。。。柄だけなら意味がないぜ
Haha, I wouldn’t really call these translations, but I’m sure you figured that out. This is just me throwing in my Japanese thoughts.
携帯充電器かな?
Ha, clever! Though personally my favorite fictional cell phone design is Kisaragi’s bunny phone from GA 芸術科アートデザインクラス. The kotatsu charger in particular.
Is that an actual live bunny made into a cell phone?
I’m pretty sure that wasn’t Kisaragi’s intent, but I think you’ve just set the stage for a dystopian biotech/cyberpunk series. Could be a bigger hit than 進撃の巨人!
lol@ the last line. I have to admit though, I own the umbrella version of this >.> I figured it’s not as bad…
I’m assuming this is you
