Do any JT readers venture into Kappa sushi? Went there years ago and left rather unimpressed. The thought has crossed my mind about revisiting.

Some very callous comments above. The young man who did this must have been in a terribly dark place at the time. It's always easy to make snide remarks based off a news article. No wonder there are so many people resorting to committing suicide which such indifference to people suffering. Compassion and understanding would go along way.

If you can take advantage of it, do it. My family and I are currently in Shikoku enjoying the countryside at a ryokan. Get on to Yahoo or Rakuten travel. So easy to get the discount.

How can consumer prices go up when the lousy minimum wage will rise by 1 yen - 1 measly yen!

The nursing home tragedy should never have happened. Why would anyone build such a home near a river which is prone to flooding? One can't fathom the dread they suffered.

Vietnam has done remarkably in handling the virus. Surely they'd be more worried about infections coming from Japan. Mr Monty, do some research pal.

The Kiwis must have impeccable hygiene habits. Take note Mr Aso. Well done to our friends in new Zealand!

A budding entrepreneur. He sells them at a much lower cost than our Abenomasks.

Doesn't seem that people in the photo are wearing Abe's masks. Just saying.

Doom and gloom from posts above. Brings the total number of apparent confirmed cases to 33. Roughly 123 million people in Japan. Odds are you won't get the virus, just saying.

Rough start to the new year. Surely a world without such destructive weapons can prevail. Condolences to all those who lost their life.

According to Mainichi news: "In terms of lawyers' confidentiality, we used the right to refuse seizure based on criminal procedure law, and asked (the investigators) to leave," the defense team said in a statement.

Investigators of the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office visited the office of Junichiro Hironaka, a member of Ghosn's defense team, following his refusal to voluntarily submit the personal computer that Ghosn used there. But the lawyer did not allow them to enter the office.

Shiseido is not a cruelty-free brand, so better to avoid and go for a brand which is. So many brands on the market which are more ethical, organic and most likely to give more superior results.

Japanese drivers are best so a student told me. I have reason to disagree; considering the above statistics, to which I might suggest may be under represented.

Also Jetstar Pacific Vietnam.

Students should be able to learn in peace, absolutely — but looking at past school/university shooting statistics, I have serious doubts that peace will prevail.

Codey Hermann.

His actual statement which he read out in court is well worth reading if anyone is interested.

some of the worst coffee I've ever had in Japan.

Great. Let's keep adding to Japan's astronomical debt.

Interesting article. If only more people adopted the practices of mindfulness and meditation, the world would be a better place.

If the Australian government continues to allow immigrants from such countries, then adequate support systems must be in place to help these people assimilate into society. The Sudanese and Somali youth who are running amok and committing serious crimes are often of Australian citizenship; therefore they can't be sent back to their war-torn countries. It's very easy to say, "fit in or far cough" however it's just not that simple.

The day I can walk into my local Mandai supermarket and buy some decent cheese which doesn't lack a wonderful intense flavor, I shall be content.

Immediately stop the funding for whaling and let's see what happens. Divert that wasted tax-money and use it for something much more necessary, ie., those hit by disaster areas.

Why on Earth does Japan even need to make this ludicrous proposal? Aren't enough animals slaughtered for our own selfish pleasure? Surely we can be content with what we have. Oh no, let's kill more and more and more. Makes complete sense.

There are more mass killings in the U.S. than any other country in the world, yet people still claim the need to have guns in order to protect oneself. Wake up to yourself! When will you learn? Never will I visit the U.S. until the draconian laws and demented views change.

The article implies that the association was ripped off from the Vietnamese nationals. Pay seems omitted from the first paragraph.

Gave up McChucks ages ago. Moved on to bigger and better things, Kuaina Burger - little more expensive but a whole lot tastier. Do yourself a favor folks.

Wake up, read the news, another mass shooting in the U.S. No surprise. We come to expect it now. What a sad state of affairs. Condolences to those people concerned.
