Whatever man. Let him waste his money there. And that is probably only going to Japanese businesses over there. Either way, maybe a "Lost" will occur.

I loved Yu's hair style, I think he was one of the only baseball pitchers with long wild hair! His new wife is also very beautiful! I wish them best of luck!

@tmarie, meal ticket is a bit harsh. Saeko has been working since a very young age and I'm sure she must have a bit of cash stashed up: http://www2.topcoat.co.jp/saeko/top/index.php

They made a mistake and did the right thing. It may not last because they're too young but I still wish them good luck.
