We’ve seen a lot of ENGRISH on the iTunes App store, but we’ve never hit a Category 5 Engrish Storm until now. Behold Japanese OMiKuJi. I’m not even sure after reading this that its developers chose “English” as the “to” language when they ran Google Translate. Although I will admit, it could just be a clever marketing tactic, as Lord knows I am dying to “meet the pigging”, whatever the hell that is.

OMIKUJI is the slip to divine a fortune at the shrine and the Buddhist temple in Japan and so on.
It receives a slip with the number which was written down to one broth, the stick from the hole with the small short side of the box in the stick,
brandishing the box which a thin stick was included in.
It is written with the outline of the fortune and the fortune word of “Excellent LUCK, Middle LUCK, Small LUCK, LUCK, UNLUCKY, FATALITY”
and so on at the slip and the individual fortune of “the urge”, “The person who wants to meet”, “The lost one”, “the travel”, “the business”,
“the learning”, “the trade”, “the conflict thing”, “the love”, “the removal”, “the pigging”, “the sickness”, “the marriage proposal” is written down.
Also, a summation song, too, is attached to the explanation of the fortune.
There is habitude which links the OMIKUJI after reading with the branch of the tree and so on and burns it.
This application (OMiKuJi) is the one which was always made to be able to take OMIKUJI casually even if it doesn’t go to the shrine and the Buddhist temple and so on.
