Shonen Knife

A Japanese punk lady trio, hailing from Osaka, Japan. They formed in 1981 and they play power-pop-punk rock music inspired by the Ramones, Beach Boys, 60s 'girl groups' (singing trios) and Japanese pop. Unlike most punk bands they generally write about more 'positive' topics, esp. food, good times and occasionally sci-fi. They don't push a sexual image but they do have a 'cutesy-wutsey' kawaii image, and they often draw in the cosplay crowd but make no mistake - those women are punk rockers, and they can kick out the jams - HARD. Some critics label this band under the category of 'cuddlecore'.
1. I've seen and met Shonen Knife five times. They always put on an exciting electrifying set. They're very fan friendly, after a show they'll talk with you, pose for selfies, sign anything.

2. Their audience is expanding beyond generations. The last 2 times I saw them they were playing full houses to audiences that had adults in their 40s and 50s.
3. Play a Shonen Knife CD in your car and it'll take you outta your doldrums in no time.
4. Shonen Knife is simply a FUN band to hear and see. What's wrong with just plain fun? When they come to your town to play, check them out.

Manga shonen is the most powerful hero to protect the earth...MORE POWERFUL THAN HERCULES......apparently he used to be a normal human like all of us, but one day he became a cartoon...its mostly unknown exactly how he became a cartoon character but eventually we will find out. Did I mention he’s only 13 years old? Yeah bet you didn’t see that coming. He also breaks the 4th wall...no wonder he wears that Deadpool suit...THATS ALL FOLKS!!!!!

frook shoken

A state of paralysis that occurs in the left brain of a heterosexual male upon his first visual encounter with BTS' Park Jimin. It is caused by a combination of shock, awe, and general confusion, and can last up to 9 hours. Symptoms include staring and/or rapid blinking, repetitions of the word "how" and a slackness of jaw which may result in drool. It is simply known as the Jimin Effect when it happens to straight females and homosexual males, but the added layer of confusion resulting in left brain paralysis is what makes Frook Shoken specific to the straight male subset. Snapping out of it will inevitably result in the victim asking "wtf just happened" but it is best if you wait a few hours to let his system recover before exposing him to Jimin again. Just tell him you'll explain later.
'My boyfriend came in while I was watching the Blood, Sweat, and Tears MV and he was frook shoken for four hours, so we missed the movie.'

One fateful night a certain blonde hair, baseball capped young man named David Shomen was taking pics at Los Angeles near Electric Fountain. He heard a certain Curly haired lads voice and recognized it to be...

" Hey, you're Harry Styles! Mind if I get a pic? "

Shomen noticed a shorter tattooed man hanging on his arm. He was looking fondly into Harry's eyes.

" Sorry man, its best if we not "- Harry responded.

David was a bit down about this, but tweeted a pic of them anyways.
