This is a great achievement. Abe is saying that he wants the federal government to pursue policies like Yokohama's and implement them nationwide. If they can do that successfully, it'll be a huge step forward for Japan. More options for women and more women discovering that it's possible to have both children and a career, leads to more women having kids, leads to Japan's birth rate going up, etc. Get it done, Abe.

They can do whatever they want with the stations, I'm just pumped for how amazing this new line is going to be. If I'm not still in Japan when it opens, I'm definitely going to schedule a trip back just to ride this bad boy.

Yep! The company founder's name is Ishibashi, he translated that to English and reversed the order to make a company name he thought was cool.

Sad history, sad situation. Obviously reminiscent of situations with Native Americans, Ainu, etc. In the history of the world, has there ever been a powerful nation that treated the indigenous peoples it encountered with respect? Serious question.

The previous post was probably made just in reference to the last line of the article, about members of the US military supposedly not using prostitutes.

I actively avoid this store because of all the damn singing. Just give me my ice cream and let me leave. Standing in a long line and watching the employees waste time synchronizing their singing and little dance moves is agonizing. And the ice cream isn't all that good to begin with...in Japan I guess there's not much competition (it's not hard to be better than Baskin Robbins), but in the States there are so many better choices.

Sounds like a good idea. High-quality, low-cost Japanese cuisine is something New York could definitely use more of. The Oreno people have the financial muscle to open a nice shop in a good location, and serve fresh, excellent food, all while charging much less than existing restaurants. Good luck to them!

It hasn't. Starbucks in Japan takes much better care making their drinks than Starbucks in the States, just like most other chain stores that have opened over here.
I also can't overstate my praise for their across-the-board no-smoking policy. The omnipresence of Starbucks in my hometown of NYC used to really drive me nuts. But in Japan, unlike New York, Starbucks is pretty much the only place a person can go and enjoy some free time in a totally smoke-free environment, so my opinion on them completely flipped. Here's hoping they keep expanding into smaller towns and rural areas.

This looks completely awful. Congratulations on combining two of the greatest cheap foods in the world and coming up with a stack of noodles and bread. Lotteria sucks.

It's present because it has a huge street food scene, which it is very very famous for. Maybe you shouldn't judge a place you've never been to based on some other places that happen to be in the same country?

Don’t drown your sushi in loads of soy sauce. Taste the fish and rice.
I had a couple of older Japanese gentlemen berate me about this when they took me out for sushi once. I consider myself to be a person who adapts to local styles and does a good job of following the "rules" presented here; I just happen to like a bit more soy sauce than some people.
But - here's the shocker - I'm actually able to taste the fish and rice despite the extra soy sauce! How is this possible? I don't know! Maybe I have superhuman tastebuds? Or maybe, just maybe, there's more than one way to enjoy something.

Given that Korean yakiniku and samgyeopsal are usually eaten with lettuce and leafy greens, I think they should have tried to go with a Korean-influenced burger for this one...seeems like a more natural combination than generic "Aurore" sauce plopped on a regular burger.

Yes. Having to run and catch the last train has put a premature end to many a fun evening out with friends. Even if the only people who benefit are those out for leisurely purposes, it's worth making the change. I think it's embarassing for one of the greatest cities in the world, one that openly advertises how modern and "cool" it is, to shut down all its trains, the veins and arteries of the city, at 11:30 every night.

Going to a burger shop and judging them based on their salad is like going to an izakaya and complaining the oolong tea is watered down.

The footage of the incident really showed the shocking incompetence of the police. The way they stormed this guy on the roof was so half-assed, they looked like rookies. Had we wanted to harm the woman when things got tense, the police gave him a HUGE window of opportunity to do so.

Matthew Simon - unfortunately, yes, race does matter. If there was a big brawl in New York, imagine how differently it would be treated, not just in the media but in everyone's minds, if it was between a group of black guys and white guys, or if they were all the same race.
