People like this should be castrated to avoid having kids. That way, they can live in their manga pathetic world completely void of 'RESPONSIBLE PARENTING'! Idiots!

I will never fly with JAL again anyhow, so it doesn't really matter what they paint on their aircraft. They would do better to spend the money on upgrading those engines.

I don't know what part of Japan you live in, but smoking outside is not banned anywhere in Japan!! Where do you get your information from? I've been here nine years and never heard once that smoking in the street was illegal!

I almost bought a business in Saitama...but it seems like there is more crime in that city than anywhere else in Japan! Glad I reconsidered.

Ladies, if a man flashes you, just start laughing and shout out in either Japanese or English "Wow! It's so small!" "すごい!本と小さいね!"
I know it's no joke, my friend was flashed at in the UK. First she cried and after when she had calmed down, she actually joked about it, saying she had never seen one so big!
But all joking aside, these perverts need some serious jail time! That way, they will have plenty of time to flash and be flashed at by their own kind!

Instead of blaming the cafe owners, who are just providing a place to meet, like any other restaurant, why not spend time getting these girls back into school or taking them home and grilling their parents about responsible parenting?
Doesn't matter if the cafe owner runs the cafe for the purpose of dating, people are responsible for their own actions. And if these cafes didn't exist, people would simply meet at their local McDonalds or someplace else, taking it underground and making it harder to control.

This guy should be fired from his job!
Can you imagine if the dog had found this and the officer concerned never stepped forward to assure his colleagues it was all part of a test? OMG!
The passenger concerned should sue Narita Airport for this!

No one said you were my friend mate. And you obviously misinterpreted my statement. I was trying to make the point that suicide, while obvious to those of us with sound minds and a clear vision of our problems, is not the answer. However, my point did also say that it seems obvious to the rest of us, NOT in her situation or frame of mind. Please try to read between the lines more next time. I wasn't condoning her for her actions, I made it VERY clear what a tragic loss this is.

This is truly sad. If she was worn out, why not just take a much needed holiday? Yeah, yeah, I know, easier said than done and obviously her reasons for doing this are known only to her and her family at this time. But what a tragic loss of a beautiful young woman whose professionalism and radiance brought something special to Japanese TV and its viewers. She will be missed by many. May she rest in peace.
