I hope he does it tonight as well, but a lot to expect.

I feel for those who do not have an immigration office as quiet as mine. That is my only issue with this. Basically having to change our details at immigration as opposed to the local town office is going to be incredibly time consuming for some people.

blvtzpk: He/she gets it. Do not blame the talento, blame the system.

By the way actors back home never stop going on about how difficult making a films is. Do not people watch interviews celebrities when they are selling one of their movies?

Michiko Kichise is one fit woman!

I love the way people criticise J-talento on this site. I am not saying that what J-talento do is particularly challenging, but I very seldom see the same criticisms (whining, lazy, vapid, untalented)leveled at their western counterparts who essentially do a very similar job.…

This guy is a God! One of the many great Japanese film directors working today. My favourite Sono films are Love Exposure and the phenomenal Noriiko's Dinner Table.

They were B Teams last night but there is nothing to suggest from this qualification phase that either team will go far. Australia probably have the better chance of doing well, because they have a tight defence and are a threat from free-kicks.

I want both teams to do well,…

Australia and Japan were both poor last night. Neither team will go far in the world cup.

Japan might improve if they actually play some of their European based players who are used to playing against bigger and stronger opponents. I of course am talking about Inamoto of Frankfurt and…

After reading the comments...I can honestly say that Japan Today is awash with prigs. All Japan is doing in this venture is attempting to diversify its image overseas, which in my book is a good idea. How is this any different to sending a couple of geisha oversea to some…

I am glad to see this guy is doing well. I had some great ramen at a Taiwanese restaurant the other night, completely different to any ramen I had ever tasted in Japan.
