Beer advisor? I'm checking the internet right now to find out more, my new career!
By the way Soldave, as many people enjoy drinking beer, she will be titled, "Best Beer Imagist", instead!! Much more fitting and appropriate as we can combine the two into one meaningful "Best" award.

"Good to give advance warning".
Actually, the more I see the word, "raid", I think it is just another inappropriate translation of the Japanese used in the original. The translators really need to get out and improve their English more for higher quality translations, rather then just relying on dictionaries.

"i told many times.. the society needs a change..majority here are having this kind of problems.. you cant find much reason behind it".
Yes, I know it's rammed down every visitors throat that Japan is a "safe" country (yeah, right) but its crimes aren't much different to anyone else's.
Moderator: The fact that such crimes happen in other countries is of course irrelevant to this discussion. Please stay on topic.

All those "Bestist" awards for sure!! Can't wait for next year, I'm hoping to see a, "Best potatist" then!!
Or maybe it has been one of those, "Ambassadorships". I thought the "Melon Ambassador" was pretty cool and so were her melons.

Turn off the tv or change the channel is the easiest solution as has been already pointed out several times. However, saying the ritual "oishii" just goes to say what is acceptable in Japanese culture.
Anyway, my long awaited "Bestist" award for this thread is the, "Best Oishiist", which goes to every Japanese talento that has ever appeared or will ever appear on Japanese tv, amen!
