Dog, Japan has always had an account surplus and was actually much bigger. Its all about currency speculation and annoucements that are used to move markets.

Announcing that they will do something is their first line of defense. They are hoping the big speculators will be scared and stop putting upward pressure on the yen. Announcing can sometimes be as good as actually spending billions of yen. Its a good gauge the actual strength of the postion

why does everyone hate this guy. He seems like a nice guy, he obviously has a lot of talent and who cares if he does not have huge muscles. Usually guys who grow big muscles, grow big egos, try to push people around and are jurks. Girls would rather want a sensative guy who uses his brains rather than muscles

Posted in: Customs officials say pens need weapons import license See in context

Its not really that surprising. Japan has a lot of pen manufacturers so they are just protecting their market and using an excuse to push through the paperwork. Every country does this, you can write 10 pages on what the US does

as soon as they announced that they wanted to seperate the baby from the mother I thought bad idea. They say it was the milk but more like the huge trama from seperating a child from its mother. They cant admit that they caused the death.

Posted in: 10 things foreign guys do that make Japanese girls fall head over heels See in context

Is anybody satisfied with Japanese women after married? I know we all think they are hot but do they have anything worth being with for many years? I seriously have never seen any gaijins that are married to Japanese talk about how their marriage is positive. It seems everyone is taken to the cleaners and get no action. Is this true? You end up getting moved to a separate bedroom, given an allowance and not allowed to spend your own money the way you want?

@hs992326 "Why don't they do it like the Germans did and vow to never let something like that happen again,"

When it comes about talking about world war 2 you are supposed to use the terms Nazi`s and not Germans. The Germans can get very upset about that as it shows a close association.

Zichi, you are surprised by this? Then, it falls to the Koreans to get over it. After all, they actually invaded Japan first.

Actually, it is a correct comment. In the 1200`s 2 attacks against Japan were launched from Korea but were repeled.
