Yeah, don’t say anything even slightly negative about Naomi. Seems to trigger a lot of people here.

Interesting question

nagoya often gets overlooked.

Ive lived in Tokyo for over 30 years. Every time I go to Nagoya on business I have a great time and it is cheaper. It certainly has its merits.

in most other countries they won’t live that long and that’s not an exaggeration.

but I agree, there needs to be more to help people in these situations.

I remember when I first moved to Japan back in the late 80s, Japan was too expensive for most tourists. I preferred it that way.

Tourism has ruined Japan. Pity.

im still able to find a few places where you don’t see any of them.

My advice to him: pull a Trump. Delay, delay, delay, switch lawyers, delay some more, say the dog ate your paperwork. No need to serve any time. Trump has already made a complete mockery of the US justice system.

Very tragic. There has to be some govt assistance here. So sorry to hear about your situation, Dave. Have you been to your ward office to discuss any possible help that might be available? A woman in my building suffers from dementia and she has some group that she attends several times a week. They come and pick her up. It’s good for her and I’m sure it’s good for her husband as it gives him a break. Please take care of your mental wellbeing as much as possible

thanks for cutting and pasting four grafs from the original story into your response. Very helpful.

talking about sumo and China are two completely different things.

everything on the news side at nhk is scripted and you better stick to it.

I thought Americans were all about the free market and no govt intervention.

as you may have noticed, Japan is overpopulated as it is, Tokyo is overrun with tourists to the point where it is getting increasingly difficult to live here. Canada is a huge country and has plenty of space.

No offense, but please go somewhere else.

i hear Canada is nice, Vancouver maybe?

It’s the same old story every World Cup cycle.

japan beats up on Asian minnows, unable to advance in finals.

The writer literally contradicts the headline in the first graf.

his future comes into focus then it’s not clear. Which is it?

Avoiding toxic people, hmm

i guess moving from the US to Spain made that a lot easier

One thing I’ve learned living in Japan almost 40 years, weather officials like to think the can predict the weather but they can’t

He was an addict. Very sad story and sad that people would enable him in this way.

Oh, so please do tell us what the average Japanese in the street thinks of Kishida. I think because his approval ratings are so low Kurisu was spot on.

@WoodyLee

it’s not the United States.

The IBA is run by a Russian with close ties to the Kremlin. We all know how reliable they are when it comes to testing Olympic athletes.

I’m surprised regular folk buy Olympic tickets with all the graft and corruption involved. Thought just corporate types go.

in ‘Curb” Hynes plays a wife exasperated by her husband’s idiotic behavior. Funny how life imitates art.

’you did what to a bear in Central Park?”

So the Americans and Japanese move up a rank but not the Canadians?

dont Know anyone who ever criticized her but then again, I don’t know anyone who cares

He makes Rosanne Barr appear normal which is not easy to do. Even she seems taken aback by his mental state.

Thanks to Herve for looking up his age. Guess it’s asking too much of Kyodo to include that detail.

Only Japanese athletes on high alert? Strange take by Kyodo.

Everybody knows baseball is the No.1 sport in Japan in every preference. It’s not even close. Soccer is a distant second then everything else comes after that.

They come to Japan for the money which they can’t get in their own countries. Let’s be honest. It is not for the competition
