Of course we all enjoyed the illusion and joy of believing something magical in a part of a childhood, and so we want that for our children too. Because, childhood finds an end so quickly that you wish to stay young forever and never have to find out the some of the horrible truths of life
Maybe the guys that are against it had a huge trauma while finding out the truth and don't want to do that to their own children, so just live and let live. Everyone has an opinion, and no-one has a definitive answer.

Or I wonder if deep inside japanese still give the oportunity of suicide, like in ancient times the "harikiri" was for matters of honor...? (or maybe I'm wrong, it's just a question / point of view).

Too young to be sentenced but old enough to live with his girlfriend... a little incongruous don't you think...

The song has rhythm, it's catchy, he's funny, he breaks up with "cuteness" standards. At least while this hit is on, I like him!

I don't doubt there are sad women in this bussiness, but some of them really like to be AV actresses. Just face it. If you don't like porn don't watch it, but don't see it like the worse profession either... People should be able to decide their profession without being judged harshly. PS: sorry, but some women DO enjoy some porn once in a while, me included ;P

So sad... I wonder what the boy thinks his little 8-year-old sister did to upset him so much... (although some little siblings are really annoying... I'm not justifying him.)

@Kakukakushikajika:
May sound awful to some people but Kakukakushikajika is right. I'm an occasional smoker 'cause I want to be. I know the risks and all. If most japanese people fall adictive for this vice isn't really the tobacco brand's fault. May sound awful to you but, pollution kills people too, car accidents, other type of cancer, etc.
FACT: There's people who NEVER smoked and dies of lung cancer. FACT!: There's people who ALAWAYS smoked and perfectly healthy.
It's really a decision of each person. And some of us like to smoke. Sorry!

This is like putting out fire with fire. Killing killers. This makes you think that revenge (in this case called justice) is not good. BUT, when it was someone beloved to you the one who suffered, you want to kill the guy who harmed your beloved one. Let's not judge people for wanting some justice (revenge).
Also, the method they use for to kill the assassin (hanging or needle) is irrelevant. They're killed anyway! And the suffering must be less painful than kidnapping, raping and burning someone to death.

Also! What's wrong with the system?!? Japanese people do not like to adopt, but they won't allow foreigners to adopt japanese children... -_- so so sad...

We could think that is better not to be born at all, instead of ending up un-adopted (and unloved)... But to be born and die on a river, all alone and suffering!! ... that's just not decent.
