Philly One or whoever: the cost of a Gran Class ticket is the base fee plus the super express fee plus the Gran Class fee. Do you get it now?

Philly 1 just doesn’t get it. Gran Class has comfortable leather seats that recline. I guess he’s a cheapskate and a miser. Typical Gaijin in Japan.

Ban all Muscovites. If you see a Russian citizen or supporter of Moscow’s aggression, do not do anything on your own. Contact law enforcement and make sure that the individual concerned is arrested, tried and prosecuted for supporting war crimes.

“No trace of anything or anybody, that is just totally weird. It almost looks like they all vanished into a different dimension. Maybe there is a time warp/portal there?”

You watch too much science fiction or believe too much in conspiracies. Please get real.

I feel bad for the victims. Unfortunately, they are all lost. Cold water. The rescue teams are too late.

Posted in: Measures that made Tokyo Olympics possible also left public disconnected See in context

Japanese advertisers paid the IOC 3 billion dollars to promote the games. The pseudo-aristocrats and scheming con-artists who run the IOC then paid off the LDP to make sure the games were held.

Japanese taxpayers are on the hook for all the construction that took place.

The Olympics need to be held in designated cities on a rotating basis, or in just one place. How about Olympia? Do you people even know where that is?

I believe that a dozen cult members were executed for their crimes. Allow me to praise the Japanese justice system.

Hikomain: if there are easier ways to make money, then go for it. A well maintained property that earns 6,000 bucks a year can be profitable. I own two such properties. You don’t.

Bad migraine: this article is about Japan, not fly-over country. If your money goes further in Nebraska, then buy in Nebraska.

Could the editors and /or moderators give a definitive answer as to what sort of bird and blossom we're talking about here.

One guy even said "That's not a blossom tree"!

Too bad. The government should FORCE all FOREIGN residents to pay into the national health insurance system. Buying insurance from a foreign company deprives the gov. of money that it needs to build and maintain hospitals and pay medical professionals.

Centuries ago plum blossoms were the BIG DEAL in blossom viewing in Japan until some Shogun decided that he liked cherry blossoms better. The entire country folowed his lead and now no one bothers to look at the poor, neglected plum tree. So sad!

No. It could have been taken this year, SOUTH of Tokyo. Or do you assume that where you live is the DEFACTO standard for cherry blossom season?

Wake up people - it's a big world out there!

Not everyone lives near Steen and cherry blossoms do not blossom at the same time all over Japan or the World. I saw them earlier this year in OKINAWA - in February.

Prices HAVE dropped, WIBBLE. Look at property. Stuff is cheaper, too. Look at 100-yen shops and UNIQLO. Seriously, have you been here for 10 years?

The upside: 20,000 Eikaiwa teachers heading back to where they came from. Good-bye and good riddance!

Nomo was initially reviled for "jumping" to the majors. His grandmother was shown on TV tut-tutting his 'betrayal'. THEN, when he began to win, all Japan praised him. Get your facts straight. And he ain't broke. He probably got a cool million bucks for that ad.
