@KUCHIKOMI Jun: "701 AD" --> 701 CE.

Thanks for sticking with this in the future.

Of course, if a similar service done by cute girls is started somewhere, western audiences get all angry and accuses everyone of misogyny or sexism or even modern soft prostitution.

Interesting read. Although I'm still puzzled by the ending...

The video is really awesome, the music as well. But is it really a hit? I doubt it.

This is no country for old men.

And here come Linux...

This survey seems to say conflicting things. If a kiss is just a kiss, why are the Japanese kissing more people?

I don't understand this sentence. Shouldn't it be "why are the Japanese NOT kissing more people?"

"the cult director"

ewww....

These beasts really are dangerous...

"cultural tradition"

tradition is outdated! Screw older generations! Power to the young! We will kick you arse!

killing 46 South Korean sailors in the worst clash since their war ended in 1953.

I thought the war didn't end... at least it did not end between north and south Korea.

Interesting article. Thank you Eddie!

he sees more than 10 patients an hour. that's quite a lot. Admittedly 10 minutes would be the minimum, he probably sees many couples or something?

SeaShepherd we support you! The japanese government will fail! It's already weakening!

Interesting article. I wish there would be more love hotels around the world nowadays.

Thanks Eddie, and keep on jamming!

GO Sea Shepherd GO GO GO!

We support you! They will eventually fail!

Interesting interview. Thank you!

So this is Japantoday.com so my vote goes to Tokyo Jihen. Or The pillows. Or The Pees.

I enjoyed this article. Thank you Mr. Landsberg. Wishing you all the best!

They should use Linux, no more problem, and it even prevents budget cuts! :D

They should cancel the lights not only in Japan but everywhere too. Waste of energy.

And upon learning that so many are atheists, many ask, “Then how is it possible that the Japanese are so well-mannered and crime is so low?”

Wow, this is some serious stuff there. As an atheist myself, I find this shockingly stupid to say that. Also, atheist rate in the US varies from one source to another. We are all born atheist, and many of us are made into religious slaves.

Ok I'm going to quote this comment because this is exactly what I think:

It is a sad day when anyone famous that was loved by so many passes away but what about all the thousands of anonymous souls that passed away yesterday that we don't mourn because they did not invent something that all of us want to have, are they any less remarkable? Most of us don't realize that large companies like Apple have thousands of brainstormers and the iPad or iPhone may have not been the brainchild of Jobs but from a team of far thinking marketing geniuses but who gets the credit, the CEO of course.

Go Go Sea Shepherd!

Maybe they forgot the "E" in HYENA ?

I thought exactly the same! Also, she does look like one. ughh

aah, they look adorable, with their hats.

This picture makes me want to get into it and talk to these honorable elderly persons! Know more about their hobbies. :)
