“The ubiquitous purikura (print club) kiosks are equipped with fancy lighting and snazzy image-editing technology. They beat cell phone images by a mile and, priced at 400 yen per “play,” they’re a bargain.

“The downside: Printouts on stickers look janky and are not very shareable. Two new portrait machines, Recipe of Goddess 3 and R&B (Rich and Beauty), let teens download JPEGs directly onto their handsets via infrared as the decals are printing out.”
