Template:Foreign Finds/January 2012

 The members of Fairy Tail have been fascinated with the technologies and products of foreign lands, and so they have taken the liberty of reviewing them and picking out the best ones to recommend to our dear readers so that you may experience the same splendor they did...  For this month, Lucy and Levy recommend The Zombie Survival Guide, penned by author Max Brooks. Do zombies exist in Fiore? Maybe, maybe not. But isn't it better to be prepared to face the walking dead than otherwise? Battling the living is one thing, but battling the living dead is another. Filled with suspense and some spine-tingling scenarios, this book helps prepare the reader for a zombie outbreak because you never know when it could happen...

 Now Laxus wouldn't tell me what his musical preference is, so I had to get Evergreen to copy the data from his Magic Headphones so I could view what his most played foreign tracks are. And so I find... P.S. Dear Laxus, Evergreen is sorry for doing this. You teasing her with Elfman just kind of pissed her off, she says, even though she probably likes being teased with Elfman.

 After some intensive research, Loke decided to recommend to readers The Woman In Black, both book and film which would be released in February. "During the month of love, it's sometimes better to watch ghost movies than romance ones, because the fear and screams induced send the ladies clinging to you," says Loke with a meaningful wink. While I'm not interested into clinging into some man's arms (because believe me, I've sat through a full day of horror, gore and suspense movie marathon and I have done no clinging), this is indeed a remarkable story to read/watch. It is the story of a young lawyer who discovers the Woman in Black, the ghost of a bitter woman scaring the locals in a village he visited. It's a narrative that will send chills down your spine...

P.S. Actor Daniel Radcliffe plays the main character.

 January's Man of the Month, according to Elfman, is the game Fruit Ninja, which is basically an addicting game of slicing fruit tossed onscreen without dropping them. It has been released on iOS, Android, Symbian, Bada and Windows Phone products as well as Facebook (known as "Fruit Ninja Frenzy") and the Xbox 360. You will find yourself wasting eons on this game. As Elfman commented, "If you're a man, slice fruit flawlessly!"
