I think any 10 yr old kids from Hong Kong, Taiwan or mainland China can do better than that

It would be embarrassing for the Han race if they were bested in their own language by the Japanese who couldn't come up with their own text.

Over here in Japan, many of the latest Hybrid ads say these things can do some 70 MPG. I imagine traffic is much smoother in LA compared to most urban zones in Japan, and Honda is getting sued for making a comparatively modest claim of 50 MPG? the floodgates are about to..

It would just be a laughing matter for us non-Tokyoites if only the Gaikan loop was complete.

Why do permanent backup dancers for one or two vocalists count as 'band members' in this country?

Must be Mariko Shinoda, the only AKB48 girl that men can be fans of without being accused of being pedofiles.

@NeoJamal: Actually many Japanese still glorifying their wars against neighbours in WW2

It's a matter of context really. The nuking of Hiroshima and Nagasaki could be justified by the scale of Japanese war crimes. Like so, the 30 million or so Chinese who perished fighting Japan could be justified when China becomes a tyrannical global superpower with its massive population under the tutelage of the CCP on the basis that Japan denied the Chinese from breeding even more. Taking of lives explained away with crude reasons really.

What if Yasukuni shrine became a museum instead like the Smithsonian where the Enola Gay is exhibited or a grave site like Harry S. Truman's own? people can still worship or glorify atrocities and the monsters who perpetrate them in the guise of commemoration HAHAHA

Japan doesn't care at all as to whether the events really happened nor the lessons from them. For its national defense, she relies on a superpower that recently and openly commit wars of aggression and torture prisoners of war.

My annoyance at their over-saturated exposure in the media is right up there with that card game that is too beautiful

But gotta say some outspoken Korean nationalists are pure hypocrits. Recall how they successfully petitioned for the ban of the book So Far from the Bamboo Grove an account of a Japanese woman's experience in wartime Korea because it mentions Korean men raping Japanese women .

Can the Japanese just use the American spy satellites that are already spying on North Korea??

Hawww Hawww, you must be mistaking Japan for a respected close US ally like the UK

Japan's version will be the F-35A built for the USAF. (F-35B USMC, F-35C USN)

That's fine, Japan only ** misses out on the only STOVL capable 5th gen fighter available. **

Almost every Japanese movie made about WWII follows the theme of people who were not responsible for causing the war. For once I'd like to see a film about who was responsible instead of this constant excuse-making and self-pity.

Tojo and Konoe are nowhere near as interesting as Yamomoto's dog, if he ever had one.

But does Japan really mean it? for defense she relies on a nation that still continues to torture POWs and doesn't accept the jurisdiction of the Hague over its soldiers.
