The whole 'double/half' issue in the Japanese media is a bit of a 'strange' issue. The Japanese like the 'double' female who behaves as Japanese as much as possible. She is 'available' to the male Japanese population and if she does the 'right' thing, marry a 'pure' Japanese, then her…

I wonder about some people who write on here, if they've ever benn to japan and if they have, have they ever stepped out of their gaijin bubbles or their text of The Sword And Chrysenthium? Japan isn't about talent, it's about egalitarian mediocrity. Anybody can do this and be…

It doesn't say anything about her being alive. Remember, this is japan where the cops always begin the 'minor' provable offences (disposing of a body etc) and build up to the more seious ones.

I know that it's all BS, because he's Japanese by any 'normal' standard, but isn't he second generation Korean Japanese?

Hardly representative of the keitai obsessed Japanese mothers around my way who flob their children off with 'damme, abanai' here and a 'damme, abanai' there, and hope their children are distracted enough with the PS 3 not to bother them until lunch time in McDonald's

You really have got to wonder how many foreign women really go 'missing' every year at the hands of these otaku types? It would seem that Ichihashi and Obaras' great mistake was in killing women of the wrong ethnic persuassion. Mark my words, this one has all the signs of…

China just made a FTA with New Zealand this morning. Next on the way is Australia followed by the rest of Asia(excluding japan) in the next 5 years and India within the next 10 years. Above posters are way of the mark because China will compensate for a rising currency…
