We should focus however on the positive message of the story: There is indeed entrepreneurial spirit in the young generation! At least in the 13 year-old girls.

I don't believe in big dogs or verbal treat of the teachers. It is for s*ssies!

I think we should apply the good old American solution: If someone bullies you, you go down the shop buy an automatic gun, ammunition and some hand grenade. Shooting down some screaming students and…

I cannot undestand why would it be better, if the little guy had spend his money on a 25 years old pro. I mean, I don't know anyone who wasn't thinking about sex 24/7 at this age. So what? For me sounds more natural that a 14years old has a…

@big Indeed. But I find superficial when someone doesn't even know which country his husband is from. Oh, some gaijin, they are all the same.

I really cannot understand, why do not America just pull the plug. They should go home, leave Sourh Korea and Japan here, and see if they can recruit an extra some million standing army, air defence, nuclear capacity and whatever it takes to keep the balance, and away the friendly…

My opinion about that manga is very low, in spite or because I live in a international marriage, too. It is pretty shallow, and full of these "look, a gaijin! and he eats spaghetti" kind of informative stories.

From the original book, it doesn't even turn out the Laszlo is…

It sound nice, but am I the only who see a very strong populist underline behind these words, like "going after freewheeling capitalism"?

What I don't understand why jury does rape cases at all? In those cases not much else to judge then very technical evidences, and very complicated cases to make a clear cut based on evidence. Not much moral to judge, if he committed by passion or with cold blood or…

I really wonder if this pic is the only photo ever taken of this guy, but anyway.

What disturbs me more is why the judge decide if the girl was strangled or not?

Presiding Judge Kenichi Kurita rejected the argument as ‘‘an unreasonable claim and unacceptable.’’ Who is the…

There is some sick irony in that the Japanese are reluctant to kill a puppy, if their dog accidentally has a bunch of offspring, and they look down really on anyone, who would do, but they seem happy and motivated when it is about killing their own family.
