My nephew was scolded with hot water as his grandmother (not my mom) was transferring hot water from the stove to the bath. He accidentally stood in front of her.
If the family couldn't pay their gas bill and he had to bring hot water to the bath, it could just be negligence. I would hope so, but don't judge so harshly, the article is quite thin for a hangin'.

I think I should also point out, that the reason Japan can't hunt whales in it's own waters any more is because they're all eaten. That should be scientific enough research as to why Japan should be allowed to hunt whales period. Just wait for them to come back to Japan.

Kids think 10000yen is a lot of money stashed away, the adult in this case should get a long sentence.
Horrible the man had to die, probably just a jar of 500yen coins. sad.

Wow people, no compassion here!
They were living in a car, stealing food, probably putting any wages into gas, and they made the hard choice that only one of the children could live. Obviously they felt they were in desperate situation, and maybe they didn't know about the help that is afforded them as a Japanese citizen. Many Japanese people know nothing about their rights, available welfare, or the government in general. If they were both junior high dropouts, they could have a very limited understanding of many things and thus make choices that an educated and aware person would not make.

I'm not in a relationship with a Japanese person, but from the little I read from the manga it seemed like an insight into the need for communication and understanding in bi-cultural relationships.
Not just a my darling "loves" everything Japanese type of story.

Namabiru thanks for the link
Her face looks better on the other photos, but her swimsuit photos make me want to go back in time and give her the oreo I just ate.
Good luck to her anyway.

So women should appear submissive and fully cover themselves. Women are molested in Muslim cultures, and they do all those things.
This girl probably tried to avoid this guy and he kept finding her, she realized no one else on the train would back her up, and eventually told the police.
Stop blaming women for the weakness of men.

LOL cliffworks, brillant!
It is strange that they never describe anyone in Japanese crime articles.
However, I have never heard a Japanese person describe another Japanese person, besides he has black hair, black eyes and is an average height.
You think it would be easy to describe what the foreign person looked like more than description of the language.

Either way it goes, if your reproductive health is bad, as it probably is, since she's overworked and probably doesn't eat right. And the assumption that he probably is out spreading his seed somewhere else, so he's tired when he gets home.
Means, they're not having anything but a fight about who's the problem.

I think many people are forgetting that the lady has all ready been charged with vehicular manslaughter.
In Boston and New York most bars give drivers an armband. So the bartenders don't serve them alcohol. This lady let the guy know she was driving, but host get paid by the number of guests and the amount of alcohol those guests buy. So he knowingly served her completely aware of the law. As another poster has mentioned bars have the sign. He'll just get a hefty fine, and he'll have to get some other desperate women drunk to pay it off.

I bet 'Friday' had to pay JCOC a boat load of money to be his guarantor. I think rental companies have more to lose from this than the fake guarantor company. Surely, they lose a tenant, that though having a rough time, is honest and will continue to provide payments.

I witnessed a similar situation in a Matsudo station just about 5 days ago, with an elderly tiny woman, sitting on the chest of her much larger mentally ill son who was having a violent breakdown. The station manager heard the noise saw people staring and didn't come out and check until 2 foreigners looked at him like, "aren't you here to help?" The police were arriving as we left, but the man needed a doctor.
Keisei Chiba/Tsudanuma line is full of people like that. It is quite sad these people can't get any help.

Thank you Mayuki...you said what I was thinking. These guys do far worse than any Japanese women. Why haven't they mentioned the guy on the train platform shaving with an electric razor or the guys deep drilling in their noses and then grabbing the train handles.
I do agreed that girls in skirts should be aware of their legs being open enough for someone to see their underwear. Or just wear bloomers. I close my legs in skirts but the umbrella between their legs in a pair of pants is fine. Dirty minded grandpas.
