    I'd take "Shin Tokyo Tower" any day. Even "Tokyo Edo Tower" is so far in front of "Sky Tree" it's not funny.

    So Nagoya, we'll all sit down at home and watch gang rapes, pornographic videos, violence, girls with no clothes. You know, the kind of mindless stuff that millions will tune in to out of curiosity and create millions of viewers for the sponsors to be happy about.

    That's just…

    Hmm... I wish this thing came with sarcasm indicators. I thought the "time machine" reference was a dead give-away. I guess not.

    Considering some of the stuff I have seen from TV shows in other countries, a stabbing on a crime drama here is nothing. CSI anyone???

    Now there's a…

    If TBS had consideration for any family of stabbing victims then it would not have filmed that drama in the first place.

    I couldn't agree more. If TBS really cared about what had happened earlier that day, they would have jumped in a time machine, gone back the weeks or…

    With the price of oil and food going up like it current is, I guess the mighty yen just doesn't stretch as far as it used to.

    With so many unscripted shows on Japanese TV, where they just get the same old people just sit around blathering on about nothing, I can see how one of them could win this prize.

    tclh: it is the fact that Japanese language is much easier to pronounce than Chinese language .It is little wonder that chinese business love to use japanese names for their products.

    The news story says that this is happening "as the Chinese and Japanese languages share many kanji characters", so…

    They want to kill anyone who isn't them. Any excuse will do. Race or religion isn't important to them. Just look at Iraq where they target "fellow muslims". They are condemned by the teachings of their own religion as murderers. No "peace talks" with them will succeed unless you offer…
