  There are girls and young women in Glasgow starting to dress in Loligoth gear... not so much the normal Loli stuff, just the black and red gear with stuffed bunnies and silly little hats... oh and lots of frills. Sorry, but it IS kind of cute. (Prefer maids myself lol)

  That's standard practice on all Japanese military aircraft... last three digits repeated at the front, even if they start with a zero.

  I posted a link to a photo of the aircraft. The 731 is on the nose, the full code is towards the rear of the plane. The numbers seem to be mostly in the 720s.

  Could you give us a link for that please? I can't see anything but 731 in the videos and photos of this plane with Abe I've seen.

  I just Googled this particular aircraft. It has the full code: 46-5731, and flies with a large white '5' on the tail. '731' is merely the call sign. This is a stupid, STUPID over-reaction by the S Koreans.

  Jackie Woo doesn't sound like a particularly Japanese name, does it? Ah, his real name is Yoshiyuki Oohira... so why adopt a Chinese nom de plume?

  Sadly, few Japanese will see a movie like this.

  Neither would I... it sounds like a pretentious load of nonsense, subject matter aside.

  All those people who think this should have been spotted - ask ANY Japanese person what the significance of 731 is... and come back and tell us how many are aware of it.

  yeah, 10 m will do just fine when the 40 m high wave comes. The company that ensured this contract must be so happy now.

  It may not fully protect the area behind the wall in the case of a mega-tsunami, but it will lessen the impact by a certain degree. Or am I talking absolute mince?

  In any civilized country this would be the headline news for days... hmmm not so in Japan. The sensitivities are somehow different here.

  No it wouldn't. You think if Angela Merkle was photographed in a Jaguar SS it would be headline news? I seriously doubt anyone would care...

  I just hope no-one in Japan owns a Jaguar SS... that could open up a whole new bag of worms...

  This is getting sillier and sillier... what next? "Abe talks to old man... Provocative reminder of the old people who died in the war!" Really, S Korea needs to get it's head out of its arse and stop behaving like this... it's getting so that someone in Japan can't fart without SK bleating on about past war crimes.

  Last thing I want to see is Japanese people getting off their face with weed.

  There are some who go on to harder drugs from weed and hash, etc... When they interview crack or heroin addicts on TV or in the papers they nearly always say they started off by smoking Cannabis and then, after a longer and more intense high, progress to the killer variety of drugs.

  The people who tend to deny any link are those who smoke the stuff.... the old "won't happen to me" line.

  I despise people like Hashimoto and Ishihara... Why should they, and those like them be permitted to label the ordinary Japanese people as uncaring and cruel? That's what their actions are doing... they need to be stopped from speaking in public.. a gagging order needs to be issued, shutting them up!

  I can only assume that a majority of the posters above are cannabis or marijuana users... or have been going by their comments

  Why don't you hear about Volvo, Renault, VW, BMW or Citroen complaining about not selling masses of cars in Japan, yet the US makers are always bleating on about it?

  Is Ishihara (and Hashimoto for that matter) a complete moron? While the government are doing their best to calm the waters up pops this tosser with his moronic statements.

  It's rather pathetic that Japan just can't seem to move beyond WWII.

  Japan isn't ALLOWED to move beyond WW2. China and S Korea keep raising the subject, which then prompts idiots like this to spout his sh... stuff, and so keeping the cycle going. If China and S Korea just accepted the apologies, then let it lie it wouldn't give Ishihara and Hashimoto a platform.
