Have you guys watched Beetle Queen Conquers Tokyo? If you haven't, it's a documentary about the fascination with insects in Japanese culture. As someone interested in eastern culture and how insects are viewed by humans, I thought it was an amazing documentary that was incredibly fascinating. Give it a watch if you haven't already. Here's the trailer:

It's pretty cool - the best shots are of beetle conventions and shops. Jessica came out and showed the film for Insect Day at the Arboretum a few years ago.

 
Aye, I'm envious that people over there have access to shops where they can buy substrate and beetles. I loved seeing how enthusiastic about their insect pets people were in the documentary, particularly the children playing with their beetles. If I ever visit Japan, I'd love to visit some of their beetle shops and forests, haha.
