Big-name horror baddies, Sadako and Kayako, are making their promotional rounds for their upcoming movie. After a bit of baseball, the girls are back to help out with a public service announcement.
On June 3, public relations for the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department released a poster via their Twitter account warning people about quasi-legal drugs, using the scary figures of Sadako and Kayako.
The poster says that, “the shadow of quasi-legal drugs creeps towards you” and, “once you fall, you can’t get up.” Dark and ominous words fitting of dark and ominous girls. And let’s be real, no one wants to take a trip down Sadako’s well.
These quasi-legal drugs are still causing quite a problem for youth in the Tokyo area. While not yet established as illegal under Japanese law, these psychoactive substances (generally dried vegetation laced with chemicals) are being targeted in Tokyo Police’s latest poster campaign. If Sadako and Kayako can’t convince you of the terrors of quasi-legal drugs, perhaps an endless loop of the Hollywood remakes of The "Ring" and "The Grudge" will scare you straight.

Reefer Madness 2?

Just decriminalise cannabis like almost every other sensible country then the police won't have death and injury from untested psychoactive chemicals on their hands. And won't have so much work to do.... Oh, wait a minute. That will never do, will it.

How about people just not do drugs? What is the point of such garbage?

How about you not decide what people should and shouldn't do? It is a pretty authoritarian position you have there. And if you don't know what is the point then perhaps you should not be deciding anyway.

No just a population stoned out of their minds and turning into zombies.

I think we got the message, while not yet established as illegal under Japanese law, The police wants you to confess your quasi-crime. I think this should stay in the hand of the legislator, police should only enforce the current legislation, not create some of their own.

Perhaps they should feature Sadako and Kayako popping out from cigarette vending machines. Or hidden behind the chu-hi shelves. Why not? Prob more dangerous than quisi-legal whatever.

I can NOT stand this. This is an insult to Sadako. Sadako is much deeper, Stupid drug things doesn't fit! But anyway I'm sure it will be the police themselves that will be pretty much scared by Sadako.

Yeah, because these two are going to stop muredering innocent people and torturing others to lecture you about "drugs" that aren't even illegal?
