relocate to where? overseas? cedar trees cover a significant percentage of the country, and regrow quickly .Cutting them down is impossible though sleazebag Ishihara made a similar pledge in his manifesto for election.

Any guesses as to how squeaky this character's voice is going to be?

probably only audible to dogs. Anime voice actors fine, in real life however it's extremely irritating to listen to Japanese 'women' who insist on talking in minnie mouse voices under the mistaken belief that it is cute.

WTF? 12,000 yen is three hours pay for a salaryman? I guess this is the case if you consider those folks handing out tissue on street corners "salarymen."

do you really believe they make 4,000 an hour handing out tissues?

I think masks should be banned because they make criminals escape from police easily. If a person is so ill that he might spread the disease, he should stay at home or at hospital.

hahahahahaha, clueless

cedar pollen is everywhere in japan and since at least 20% of the population are allergic (and increasing every year) to it relocating is not an option.

I would say there is a 75 percent chance the bus was making a turn and the old lady was using the crosswalk.

by my calculations it's actually a 47.5% chance

Look at 100-yen shops and UNIQLO. Seriously, have you been here for 10 years?

100 yen shops have been here for more than 10 years (well, I'll give you some credit, there are 99 yen shops too now, you're right, things have become cheaper) Uniqlo have been open for more…
