YAMANASHI —

Police on Wednesday said that 18 swimsuits belonging to girls had been stolen at a primary school in Koshu City, Yamanashi Prefecture.

According to police and the school, students discovered that the swimsuits, some bags and goggles were missing when they came to school around 7:50 a.m. The items had been left in an unlocked cabinet at the back of the classroom. The school told police that nothing was missing when a teacher checked the classroom around 5 p.m. on Tuesday when she was locking up. Police said a security company which monitors the school had not received any reports of intruders.

Schoolgirls’ swimsuits were stolen three years ago at the same school, according to the principal.

" Perhaps this is a money scheme. Maybe swimsuits can fetch some yen online? "

Quite possible.

KaptainKichigai:My friend asked her Mom for her old High school uniform because she said that she could sell it online for 10man yen. The percs are buying them. But her Mom had tossed them out a few years back. Perhaps this is a money scheme. Maybe swimsuits can fetch some yen online?

bushlover: Mom already sold it!! Didn't want to share the money.

somewhere some Otaku is wearing one of these suits over his head while looking at porn. Sorry, jumping to conclusions but this is Japan after all.

Kaptains got a great point. A nice alternative to the usual "perveted freak" theme. But only SMART people would sell swimsuits.

I bet the parents won't think this is funny once they have to replace them. I wonder if another school is pulling a prank??? Just a thought. I hope the kids don't miss any lessons or meets because of this.

Unbelievable. Next Friday, check Metropolis Magazine for their Clothing classifieds : "18 swimsuits for sale, email for details."

USAEXPAT and TORU Sensei: Excellent, some otaku wearing them on his head, watching Gundam online, ha ha!

Another perv Japanese man adding to his collection, no doubt. Politician, policeman or teacher this time? Maybe just another sleep-deprived sarariman.

These sorts of stories about Japan should not be translated. It puts Japan in a bad light. What would happen if the 2ch folks got wind of this anti-Japan stuff being published in English?
