Guess it's not easy to lie playing in real time and can't blame "fake media" to clean up after either

Posted in: 'The Crow' reimagined is stylish and operatic, but cannot outfly 1994 original See in context

Sorry but Bill Skarsgard was a miscast. Maybe he wants to be known as top tier horror actor after "It" but his look doesn't fit the Crow. The Crow character needs a sharper face with super expressive eyes.

Posted in: Japanese gov't takes issue with NHK radio's unscripted Senkaku remarks See in context

Didn't know NHK was so lax in their hiring process and why even bother airing prerecorded news in Chinese? That's like having a radio station airing news in Russian. How would anyone know what is being broadcasted unless you understood the Russian language. Really dumb move.

Posted in: Japan’s quail egg industry takes a severe blow after a sharp decline in use in school lunches See in context

Couldn't agree more to the previous post. If school kitchen staff have to boil and peel the eggs anyway, cutting it in two/four could be the next solution. Yes it's tedious but sacrifices should be made to benefit the quail egg sector. Good luck.

Hopefully Japanese government and companies were able to sell the dollar and repatriate in yen while still at high

What happens when current Korean Prime Minister is replaced at next election? So far they've only proven that everything promised gets scraped each time the top changes. Something to seriously think about.......

Posted in: Kim Kardashian accused of damaging Marilyn Monroe dress at Met gala See in context

Wouldn't doubt it if this was fake news. Anything the Kardashians do seem to rile Hollywood the wrong way. Maybe Hollywood is unhappy that a originally unknown realty star family made huge profit without using HW agents, actors & actresses, sets etc. . . who knows??

Posted in: Mizuho hit by system failure again despite pledge to improve operations See in context

If it happens this often, it makes you wonder if they even have the capital reserve to make these transfers in the first place. Wonder if they prioritize business accounts over retail customers? Surprising the Japanese financial authorities even lets this go on for this long.

Posted in: China’s 'Little Kyoto' shut down by government after complaints of Japanese culture invasion See in context

Interesting how some Chinese reminisce about their history by visiting "Tang" Little Tokyo. Japanese were the enemies during WW2 but can't forget it was the Communists that inflicted the Cultural Revolution.

Posted in: Britney Spears' father files to end court conservatorship See in context

Sad truth about child stars is that most become incapable of differentiating people that really care and love them from the ones that manipulate and just want their money. Hopefully her father is the former.

Japanese government should mandate software and tech update to banks that hold x amount of public money every so many years; even phones and TVs become obsolete after so many years.

Can't ignore the fact that most governors in red states (e.g. Florida) ignored mask mandates and shunned vaccination. Every choice results in consequences, good and/or bad.

Good job Japan for pulling off this difficult feat. Don't think it could have been done anywhere else.

Posted in: Japan's vaccine push ahead of Olympics looks to be too late See in context

Stop being fixated on what hasn’t or should have been done. Think of ways to give at least one dose to everyone especially those who are vulnerable, medical and Olympic related. Every school or majority should hold mass vaccination on premises for students. Bad decision making or lack of , result in terrible outcomes. Japan needs to wake up and start taking action.

Posted in: Man arrested for robbing convenience store says he did it because he was hungry See in context

This is sad. Must be hard to find work due to age stigma. Why can't Japan put all those abandoned houses to better use? Perhaps government can negotiate with owners to give up these properties in lieu of astronomical inheritance tax or property tax and build more discreet homeless shelters where people like this man can stay until he gets his footing. If he can save up some money on rent, then maybe he can afford to buy more food? Expensive housing is an universal problem.

Posted in: Piers Morgan leaves British breakfast TV show after Meghan comments See in context

People seem to forget Megan is an actress and Morgan is a TV celebrity. They both make lots of money on creating attention and stories(fictional or not) to promote themselves. Enough said about both.

Posted in: Supermarket slip lawsuit ruling influenced by size and color of pumpkin tempura See in context

Sad ruling for Japan. People will start suing for every little liability whether it was their own fault or not. Lawyers might or might not get paid but something is better than nothing and they wouldn't know unless they sue.
