It's all relative I guess. Unlucky for her kids.

Sakoku!

only another 200 odd years and they'll reopen to the world.

This brings new meaning to the term "altruism"

Chinese money talks

How did he get a gun?

Introduce a benefit system like the UK if you want your population to grow. You'll soon have millions of single mums.

I doubt there were children, but who knows. What mother has time to get drunk?

Not a fan of superhero movies. Is there popularity something to do with Christianity, also popular in the US?

She's so privileged, yet she can't bare to live. It's not enough to be so pretty.

The world is crazy.

Japan did pretty well during the Korean war. Got a nice boost to manufacturing making tanks destined for Korea. It was good luck.

Won't do much to protect people from earthquakes or tsunamis, and they will definitely happen at some point.

I think you're right @paul

Back hand deal to defence contractors?

Japan should prepare for natural disasters and sort out population decline. Too difficult?

I think Japan is probably more under threat from natural disasters than a foreign foe.

She's barely an adult and he's taken her life. He should be hung.

AI being used to check the manufacturer of paper copying machines.

What happened to the paperless office?

Only in Japan

Pretty much impossible to stop people being racist.

Best thing to do is have a homogeneous society.

In 35C heat? That's going to be interesting.

Cool!

Going to need things like this with the declining birth rate.

Japan is forced to use oil by the USA, so they can be controlled.

It's a good idea given the big one will strike one day. That's going to be a disaster for Tokyo.

What were the British doing in Asia? Educating brown and yellow people? Why is this never talked about?

Who in their right mind would marry her? It's obviously not going to last and when it ends that's the last person you'd want to be fighting in court.

Does marriage boost their careers or something?

Good thing the Olympics aren't taking place.

The world needs to shift away from this dirty fuel.

There's a declining birth rate, why can't they open a baby drop place instead of this happening?

Only Anglo-Saxons are allowed to have empires.

What's the need to drop atomic bombs on habitated areas? Why not drop them on uninhabited places as a warning? What happened was cruel beyond belief and prejudiced in my opinion.

The good thing is that no country has a monopoly when it comes to nukes.

It looks nice but it needs to be priced right. I think if it's around £30,000 then it will sell in the UK, because a Tesla is more like £40-50,000.
