Writing during opening credits


Yes I used to room with a Japanese fella and one day when this show came on I asked him what the writing during the opening credits said. He told me that it was definetly not Japanese. If it was not Japanese then what writing/alphabet is it? This is a Japnese show so why would they not put up Japanese?

It's either obscure Kanji that nobody knows anymore or simply made up characters.



Anybody who's claiming he's 30 as long as he could will always be in the Twilight Zone.

The writing is a bizarre combination of Japanese, Chinese, Korean, and geometric shapes. The characters used have no connection with what the subtitle claims it to say.

by the way, it is not a japanese show, but a british spoof of the japanese style of television.
