Really,

Well, first of all 67 Billion yen is not 6,7 billion USD but only 650 Million USD roughly. Bit of a difference.

And you seriously want us to believe they made a 10 % net profit on that ?  Of course if half of the expenses are not counted as operational expenses but taken on by local governments it is possible. 

All tickets sold ? I saw more than half of the Kameiichi stadion filled with high school kids. 

I do not mind some over optimistic reporting in these times, but do keep it credible.

Rugby World Cup is most likely the best major event you can host.

No new expensive infrastructures needed.

Overall the most fairplay fans.
