Her agency just yelled at her for a while and gave her the ultimatum: love (or infatuation) or mainstream fame.

I thought it was only in Japan that electronic device fixation has gotten this bad. In supposedly more social, groups of people play with their phones while at a party? HAHAHA!
And fountain woman deserves whatever comes to her. You do something stupid, you aren't allowed to sue whomever laughs at you.

I think the article has the right idea. In fact, I take it for granted that America will stick its armored spearheads into a new region every other presidential term..
But North Korea as a target tho, that's iffy. There's a risk of destabilization of the entire region, the nuclear problem and an extended proxy war with China. Not a quick and easy campaign.
Iran sounds a little more palatable, but they risk further inflaming extremist Muslims and general terrorists. This might be precipitated by those manipulative Israelis (and their American moles) anyways.
And China.. are you serious?

There's many reasons vigilante justice is against the law in most countries. "An eye for an eye and soon everyone will be blind." There's no defending the actions of the man who slashed the girl, but there could be mitigating circumstances that we don't know yet.

Addendum to tip #2: Envelopes that have a black and white color scheme are usually used for funerals. Do NOT use them.
Tip #4: Even number denominations (eg, 20,000yen, 40,000yen) are unlucky because they can be divided into two. Odd number denominations only (eg, 10,000yen, 30,000yen, 50,000yen).

She got arrested for exposing her underwear? Must be due to the numerous porno shop owners in Akiba: they don't want somebody giving away free what they sell for profit.

Italians are old news, but they still controlled large swaths of the north-eastern US and this was a culmination of years of work trying to turn this wiseguy. As for the people who wax nostalgic for the good old days when crime was controlled by these mafia, you have got to be kidding me. They were busy sucking the life blood out of society, laughing at useful idiots like you who approved of their "class".

I don't get how companies/organizations select celebrities to represent their brand. Beat Takeshi for an English company? AKB48 girl for the POLICE? This is one particular area where advertising companies in Japan mystify me. Shallow idiots!

Why should the Chinese have a need to use these weapons when they can just do Cold War 2.0? You have similar elements: arms/technology race, competing orthodoxies, MAD.. except this time, America is the one with the weaker and more fragile economy that could possibly collapse in an effort to maintain the war machine. Just keep on pushing and, when the USA does have a meltdown (an economic one), the Chinese can claim a moral victory for having the superior political/economic systems. They claim to always have a long-term view of things, so this might just be their master strategy yo.
