The density of passengers in train cars and the number of groping instances are positively correlated based on the evidence that most groping instances occur during rush hour.
This is just my observation but, you will not find any other urban agglomeration in the world with rapid transit systems that pack as many people into cars as the Chuo-Sobu and Saikyo lines on weekday mornings. For commuters who ride on those services, there's bound to be many people's buttocks to come into unintented long period of contact with luggage or body of other commuters. The groper takes advantage of this situation, based on his own perception of plausible deniability, he acts on mischief.

If anyone is wondering why McDonalds Japan has suddenly employed a few new spokespeople/mascots like James or Yamamotoyama as a departure from Donald I have a hunch.
Nicovideo users on acid had submitted a few seizure inducing videos of Donald dancing and whooping. Many youtube users would've no doubt encountered such videos that may have tarnished their perception of Ronald McDonald beyond redemption, if not rolling on the floor and foaming from the mouth from its ensuing bizarre effects. It was time for McDonalds to move on to find a new mascot.

Of course, the reasonable individual would regard the treatment of dolphins to be a decisive factor in deciding where to hold the Olympics. Then again the reasonable poster on JT would sooner regard such events that unfold in small town Tsuji is merely a device to compound on the case against Japan for some individual who is disgruntled about Japan in general.

Isn't it interesting how neither sides of the US bases issue seem to vie for the proxy of the Okinawan people and their interests. Then again, the Okinawan people were so powerless that the Americans could put their bases on their Island in the first place.

As a dolphin supporter I abhor the mass cullings that occurs in Tsuiji waters. As much as I hate the killing of dolphins, I hate the capture of these animals for the purpose of human entertainment in aquariums and films as Ric O'Barry does.

It's interesting how tangential facts like 'whether the fencing was barbed or not' or 'Japanese did worse (an argument that implies the poster does not recognise Nikkei-Americans as Americans)' always play a role in denial and mitigation rants against great injustices in history.

If US interests don't workn out with the DPJ, they can always entice the North Koreans to strut and fret about the Sea of Japan for a while..then you'll see Japan running back to their daddy.

Sachiko Kobayashi (From Sanskirit: S'achikavaashi) is the Goddess of Divine Retribution against eligible voters who do not exercise their vote on election day.
Her left hand signifies her humble pleading for the vote with utmost compassion. On the otherhand, the rice scraper (in contrast to the porridge laddle carried by her continental equivalents) represents the wrath against voters who do not accord to her humble plea.

Looking like a convincing Middle school sophomore is not a challenge for many Japanese women in their early 20s.
Breaking the Keiretsu glass ceiling for women, now that's the frontier where most J-women should aim for.
