@ Akie - Come on dude, you being Chinese and I know that what you said isn't true.  If Japan allowed itself to rely on China's market, they are at the whim of the communist party.  See the links on how china uses that against countries:

President Trump may try and limit the cars Japan sends to the US but he can't stop US citizens from buying them.  Like many posters said, Americans will continue to buy them.  I know, I will only buy Toyota.

Cheers!

Posted in: X Japan leader Yoshiki says he will never stop trying to crack U.S. market See in context

X Japan is actually quite good.  I like their style but sadly I think they will every break deep into the US market unless their label plays the money game to get their music on all the time all over the place.

@veejay - I think you are correct to a point but in the US the labels force the masses to like certain artists by drowning them in listening to their artists so much that people over time will like them.  So much money is invested to make sure they get max air time.  I stopped listening to the radio since the same f***ing songs are repeated every hour

I have 2 friends who are mixed Jp/US and both of them told me growing up in Japan was difficult for the reasons mentioned above.  One of them had a bit less difficulty since he was fortunate to go to an International school. 

My child is also a mixed with Japanese.  I call him my little Halfling since it has a Lord of the Rings feel to it hehehe.  He is still a teen but I can safely say the scales have tilted heavily to keep his US citizenship and abandoning the Japanese one.  So proud of my little trilingual Halfling :)

I have no love for the Palestinians or any of the middle eastern countries who support terrorism, 100% support to Israel. President Trump has the huevos to cut funding to terrorists.

Posted in: Quake reveals Japan woefully unprepared to help foreigners in disasters See in context

I don't fault Japan with what happened to the tourists, I almost expect something similar can happen in the US.  Japan didn't force them to visit, they went on their own so its on them to know Japanese for whatever situation happens.  Its ludicrous to go to a country and expect them to baby you for every inconvenience, if one can't take care of themselves then they shouldn't go.

I never got into Death Note, the Japanese movies were also terrible.  Somehow I am not surprised Hollywood is ruining it by catering to the left.  I guess, I don't care to see this series crash and burn in the US.

No one is blaming the child, all the blame belongs to the parents. they cheated the system for a few years and lost. They have no one to blame but themselves for their current situation.

I don't believe the hype, trade is trade.  Every country has a right to do as they please with trade but when it comes to politics it is always a different ball game.

Posted in: With K-pop back in U.S. spotlight, Korean-American stars take hope See in context

Gangnam Style was a one hit wonder, Psy failed to make any gains with the following songs he made and one included Snoop Dogg.  Tens of thousands of fans is just a tiny blip, it doesn't mean US fans are jumping on this wave.  The Korean wave will crash and recede on the wave breaker that is the American music industry and not get far on these shores.  Not that they suck (Kpop does, other Korean stuff is actually quite good) but the days of Boy Bands isn't what it used to be (thank God).  If they even want a chance to be heard, they better do it in English.  Unfortunately most Americans don't like to listen to non-English songs.

Posted in: Japanese students use VR to recreate Hiroshima bombing See in context

I wanna see this since I’m a sucker for VR stuff. Def will not change my mind for nuclear weapons. What happened to Hiroshima happened for a reason. People assume no one learned from the bombs, obviously people have learned since nukes havent been used since. But that is not an excuse to get rid of them, obviously the mutual destruction possibility has kept everyone on check.

Hanging?  Dude, that is savings right there! In the US we pay waaaaaay too much for the lethal injection.  A rope and a tree is much better and doesn't matter if the death row inmate feels pain.  If they are on death row then they deserve it. :)

At first I was not a President Trump fan and now... I am still not a fan but I will say that I am on board with a Trade War.  The world needs this shake up (this includes the US) there will be financial casualties on all sides but hopeful what comes out of it is better than what the world has now.

@Strangerland - your comments are funny, full of wishful thinking :)

Posted in: Japan moves to accept more foreign workers, but hurdles remain See in context

If one feels that Japan does bad by treating foreigners the way they do then why come to Japan? I can completely understand why Japan has an anti-immigrant stance, they don't want an outside culture to come in and change theirs. Its a fallacy to think that being multi-cultural is better, everyone has there own culture and if they want to be in another country they must accept that country's culture and forgo their previous one.  I say, Japan should continue its path that it is on and instead of being whiny, I recommend the potential immigrant to find another country.

Posted in: San Francisco mayor accepts 'comfort women' statue; Osaka to end sister-city ties See in context

Whoa, this is not the average American doing this.  First off, the average American doesn't know about comfort women nor do they care, its not a US problem.  Its a South Korea problem, being played like a good little puppet by China who are pushing as hard as they can to disrupt the US and Japan alliance.  I can tell you this news is not at all important to the US and the majority might not even know its happening.  We care more about the Civil War statues that are being taken down by the insane amount of crazy social justice heroes.

Look at the Mayor's name, its Lee! I can already see he is bought out and onboard with the Chinese and North Korean propaganda plus he is catering to his voter base. 

The choice in the women selected by the maker is no surprise, China hates the Japan and the US so they will jump on anything to break the alliance, Filipinos can be easily bought to say whatever you want them to say and Koreans are just liars.  Why do you think we don't really see other Asian countries hounding Japan like China and Korea?

Instead of believing the lies, how about you do your own personal research into the subject and not just from one source but multiple sources to really see what is going on.  I'll even start you of with a link:

http://scholarsinenglish.blogspot.jp/2014/10/summary-of-professor-park-yuhas-book.html

From what I have seen in the US, Japan is more liked, trusted and preferred over Korea. :)

This ant hill certainly got bigger on these posts lol.  I just go with my view: the Japanese will do what the Japanese will do.  It gets very annoying seeing all the lecturing from "modern country" foreigners whining how archaic Japanese laws are.  If you are one of those people, why are you still living in Japan??? If you can't accept the laws, culture and the way of life in Japan and instead try to shame the Japanese to change then I think you should vacate the premises and go live in a "modern country".

Posted in: European envoys call on Japan to abolish death penalty See in context

I agree with Ossan but i think they are going in reverse. I assume if they get all the little countries then they can use that as leverage against the harf targets like china, russia and the us to aboloish the death penalty.

Jimizo - its not an obsession, the chinese want to be like the us so like the us everyone is going to look at them hard. So of course we see the the organ harvesting, the ethnic cleansing of uighers and tibetans, the increase of military, the belicose actions the chinese do. Its all part of being a big dog, the us goes through this just the same except is liked more than the chinese.

Kiwi in Okinawa: i dont think SOFA will be supporting him. He was brought to Japan by his Okinawan wife (he adopted her family name for some reason) I believe the US conpany that hired him already let him go so he would loose any SOFA support. Plus SOFA is different between acitve military and civilians (like him) hired by a base store. This is probably why there was no way for him to get a trial in the US.

Im not a foodie, im not driven by the meats taste or texture. I just want food for energy. I dont have any financial issues to prevent me from buying the meat but i find it ridicules to pay that much for something that will be a brown pile of .... a few hours later. Just like cheap meat.
