From ‘Unhappy Meals' to no meals: McDonald's Japan scraps ‘One Piece' promo after Pokemon card chaos
TOKYO, Aug 21 — McDonald's Japan has cancelled a promotion based on the classic One Piece manga series, after a similar Pokemon-themed campaign sparked a frenzy and uproar about uneaten food being discarded. The US fast-food giant said in a brief statement on Thursday that it had called off the campaign, which was due to start next Friday. It had promised to give away game cards for the hugely popular manga and anime series One Piece in 'Happy Set' meals, the Japanese name for Happy Meals. Earlier this month, McDonald's gave away limited-edition Pokemon trading cards with the meals, which are primarily designed for children. Long queues formed at some outlets, with some customers buying meals in bulk in order to get hold of the cards and resell them on e-commerce sites. Social media was awash with complaints about families unable to be served and unverified pictures of plastic bags full of uneaten food. The campaign was going to last for three days, but many stores ran out of cards on the first day. Some people dubbed the Pokemon event the 'Unhappy Meals' campaign. Similar problems have hobbled previous McDonald's campaigns in Japan, including a collaboration with the Chiikawa manga series that was bedevilled by online resales. After the Pokemon debacle, McDonald's Japan issued a public apology and pledged to take steps to prevent such issues in the future. In the absence of One Piece cards, Japanese Happy Meal buyers will receive toys that accompanied the popular meal in the past, the company said. Pokemon cards bearing the 'little monsters' are extremely popular among children but also attract adult superfans and collectors, with billions printed and some selling for millions of dollars. There have even been cases in low-crime Japan of shops that sell the cards — which represent monsters and their attributes — being broken into and physical fights breaking out. — AFP

‘Eternyl Vinyl' sets the record straight on how to listen to music

Like really sitting down with intention, picking an album, pressing play, and losing yourself completely in it – noticing the melodies, the subtle pluck of each instrument, and letting the music take you to another dimension. 'To actually enjoy music in its purest form … like the closest to what artistes recorded in the studio, I believe vinyl is the way to go, and many young people are returning to this nostalgic, vintage trend,' said founder of Eternyl Vinyl Café Lau Jay Earn, 21, who prefers to be known as Jay. His business partner Yap Ye Heng, 25, who goes by the name Bert, agreed. 'We believe that music is eternal, and the love for music is also eternal. So whether we are listening to a new or old song, I believe that every song should be appreciated, and valued, no matter which era they are from.' There are 15 listening stations here, equipped with a turntable and noise-cancelling headphones. (Andrea Edmonds @ FMT Lifestyle) To share that experience, Jay – who also runs two thrift stores in Subang – founded Eternyl Vinyl Café in Petaling Jaya, one of the few vinyl-listening cafés in the country. With over 500 records, the collection spans Elvis Presley, Elton John, Taylor Swift, Norah Jones, Nat King Cole, Billy Joel, and even movie soundtracks, offering something for everyone. 'I got into the whole vinyl hobby a year ago when I was in the UK. I started collecting records after that and set up a little listening corner in my room,' Jay shared, adding that his first ever vinyl record was a Beatles collection. 'One day we were just chatting and Jay thought why not share the vinyl experience with others? 'We know more young people are returning to this way of listening but we also understand that it is an expensive hobby. 'So, Jay wanted to open a space where anyone can come in and enjoy music this way,' Bert, a marketing strategist, added. Eternyl has over 500 vinyl records in its collection. (Andrea Edmonds @ FMT Lifestyle) And that's exactly what Eternyl Vinyl offers. The moment you step into the café, you're transported to a different world – one that feels like it's been lifted straight from the pages of a novel. The space is softly lit with amber lamps, dotted with potted plants in cosy corners, and furnished with low leather couches that seem to invite you to sink right in. Every detail is intentionally designed to create an atmosphere of calm and curiosity. You can browse through the records, pick a favourite, set it on a turntable at one of 15 listening stations, slip on a pair of noise-cancelling headphones, press play – and let the soft crackle of the vinyl transport you. Jay and his team keep it simple: for RM20, guests get 90 minutes to enjoy as many records as they like, one at a time. After getting a ticket, they can add a drink or a snack, scan a quick how-to guide, and head to a two- or four-seater table. Many of the café's customers are from a younger demography who are returning to all things retro. (Andrea Edmonds @ FMT Lifestyle) 'Music is even better when it's shared,' said Bert. 'We set it up so you can enjoy it with someone you love … your partner, your best friend, your sibling. It's not just about being alone with the music. It's also about connecting.' Since opening in mid-July, the café has struck a chord with music lovers – and the café is packed over the weekend. 'When someone tells us, 'This is my new favourite spot,' or, 'I could stay here all day,' it really affirms what we set out to do,' said Bert. 'We just want people to enjoy being here.' Ultimately, for both Jay and Bert, Eternyl Vinyl Café isn't just a niche space for audiophiles – it's an invitation for everyone to rediscover the joy of listening. It reflects their belief that music is timeless and the experience of truly listening should be too. 'It's a completely different experience, not just for music lovers, but for anyone who wants to know what true music feels like,' Bert concluded. Follow 'Eternyl Vinyl Café' on Instagram.
