should be nice, a 4 year wait though.

Wow Japan got seriously lucky there. Can't believe how bad Japan were compared to the rest of their tournament.

will now face england, my homeland against my adopted home. who to root for?

Near total domination by Japan, but with a total lack of willingness to shoot. Three or four times they had good opportunities to strike but continued to try to pass it in. I was starting to worry that the Aussies would sneak a counter attack goal but in the end the better team won.

anywhere that hasn't been over developed for tourists gets my vote. If it's in a guide book, forget about it.

news is already old, ken retired hurt and seppi plays federer in final

hmm didn't even realise he was in Japan. No mention of it here in the UK and I'm off to Japan at the end of the week.

they should add to the list people who need a quick transfer to haneda.

when zelda comes out the cash will roll in - no worries.

It's not the lack of English that keeps people away it's the perception of it. I visit Japan every year and even with virtually no Japanese language skill get by perfectly well. When at home and on internet forums I'm constantly bombarded with questions on how hard is it to get by in Japan. There needs to be far more done to help tourists if that is what they want.

@ albaleo - it's not hard to believe that Kim dotcom intervened and paid lizard squad off so that he could play a game.

He was the world's number one ranked call of duty player until his arrest.

As a regular visitor to Japan it's great to see the yen back to where it was years ago. I feel for those living in Japan though

Can't wait! i think I'll save this for my long flight back to Japan the week after.

......and then pulls out of the final.

congrats! first ever grand slam final!!!

will be another great season of football, man utd should be back in the mix and with 5 or 6 teams in with a good chance of winning the title.

it won't be sold on ebay, the seller is just looking for publicity, no way would anyone sell a multi- million dollar item with all the fees involved.

everyone in the world knows the whole process was corrupt, how else would a such a small nation that barely even plays the game gets awarded the most prestigious tournament. money talks, and the scumbags walk.

strange aioi station has central tracks for passing trains, he would have to cross at least one track to get to the middle track....

Will be an exciting season as soon as Red Bull or Ferrari step up and match Mercedes pace, as things stand we have just traded Red Bull dominance for Mercedes.

Anyone who kidnaps aid workers need to be shot, end of story. Their politics mean nothing.

two average jumps = no medal. A great shame after a great couple of years.

i would say that's an easy trophy for city now, but after last years F.A. cup you never know.

Of note, that was the worst penalty shoot out I've ever seen!

note the "included" there are other items included which will probably be just as exclusive.

yes he was actually bowing to the car. Hopefully next years changes will shake up the sport as this season has been the worst in decades.

turkey and that region are prone to bad earthquakes as well....do people ever learn?

didn't feel it at all, and hardy felt the 7.1 here in hachioji.
