Love what?

Taken in Hibiya, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, Japan. That is, this is official. The local government of Chiyoda has at least something to do with this Engrish. I wonder why didn't hire a translator or a language specialist before doing this.

By the way, the typesetting is lovely.

A Tokyo Metro advert. This beautiful girl is Yu Yamada, one of the most popular fashion models. She's here to say "Being in Tokyo is being fashionable!"

Here's Tokyo Metro's poster and commercial film gallery:
