Cute Japanese carers?

With Japan’s seemingly forever faltering economy, and the fact that the country’s once famed job for life system has been slowly slipping away for a considerably long time, vocational-based colleges now seem conspicuously more common — the pursuit of practical skills seen as equally crucial as other kinds of education for carving out a career.

A trend that Tokyo Academy is obviously intent on making the most of, although sadly its much touted male nurse major has failed to fire many people’s imagination.

Its cutie doctor course on the other hand has managed to maintain much more interest.

Maybe.

    That job must be a real drag.

    Cutie doctor: like a sexy nurse but smarter and with a bigger student debt.

    The main headline of the first picture says “With Tokyo Academy, we will make a good country”. Maybe they are looking for a country without women?

    the two is a japanese comedy duo, the chutoriaru (チュートリアル – tutorial?) and the guy in the nurse outfit is Tokui Yoshimi, playing the ‘boke’ part.

    i’m pretty sure that it was supposed to be funny; a male comedian in a female nurse outfit because the outfit for male nurses is totally different.

    well, exaggerate and try to desperately find things to associate japan with ridiculousness all you want!

    😉
