Lum Invader - Wikipedia

An alien race known as the Oni arrive on Earth to invade the planet. Instead of taking over the planet by force, the Oni give humans a chance to fight for the rights to the planet by taking part in a competition. The competition is a variant of the game of tag (literally "the game of the Oni" in Japanese), in which the human player must touch the horns on the head of the Oni player within one week. The computer selected human player is Ataru Moroboshi, a lecherous, unlucky and stupid high school student from the Japanese city of Tomobiki, and the Oni player is Princess Lum, daughter of the leader of the Invasion force.

Shinjuku Golden Gai, Tokyo



Shinjuku Golden Gai (新宿ゴールデン街?) is a small area of Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan, famous both as an area of architectural interest and for its nightlife. It is composed of a network of six narrow alleys, connected by even narrower passageways which are just about wide enough for a single person to pass through. Over 200 tiny shanty-style bars, clubs and eateries are squeezed into this area.

The Hangman - hanging performance artist in Japan



Kubikukuri Takuzo is a performance artist who's been hanging himself by the neck in his backyard for more than 15 years. The way he puts it, it allows him to "distance himself from the fatigue of life". He explains, "Today is like a great gift for me. It makes the rest of my day very light." Some believe this is his way of expressing his appreciation for life, and the years he has left.

Japanese Yakuza Film Industry

Gokudo Ep.2: Yakuza Showbiz



Media Works, the film production company founded by Hoyu Yamamoto, specializes in producing Yakuza movies, almost all of which are based on true events. They produce dozens of movies a year, making up 80% of all Yakuza films put out each year. Unfortunately for them, the Gang Expulsion Laws were passed 2 years ago in an effort to prevent Japanese entities from working with the Yakuza, thus putting Media Works in a difficult position as they rely highly on authentic Yakuza stories. Kunihiko Shinoda, chief editor of the magazine Document faces similar challenges. We decided to go out and find out how they deal with their new circumstances.

Caroline Kennedy insults Japanese culture

Caroline Kennedy insults Japanese culture



President Barack Obama appointed Democrat Caroline Kennedy (President Kennedy's daughter) as United States ambassador to Japan. The people in Japan were happy and felt honored to have as a U.S. ambassador a person as Ms. Kennedy coming from a notable family.

During this Japanese jubilation I warned the good people to be weary of this Democrat Caroline Kennedy as Democrats cannot be trusted. Proving me correct Ambassador Kennedy in being culturally insensitive Tweeted the following in reference to the dolphin activity in Taiji, Japan:

"Deeply concerned by inhumaneness of drive hunt dolphin killing," she said. The U.S. government "opposes drive hunt fisheries."

In that Tweet the Ambassador delighted the save-the-dolphin drones, the cowards of Sea Shepherd's Cove Guardians, and Japan bashers, while at the same time insulting the people of Japan. She is one pathetic Democrat and an embarrassment to the USA. The only good thing about her being ambassador to Japan is she is not in the United States.
