Demon Newscaster Kills Self

Newscaster 川田亜子/Ako Kawada (29), has committed suicide

Newscaster 川田亜子/Ako Kawada (29), has committed suicide for reasons which still remain unclear, but whatever her thinking the lamentable act is causing something of a stir. She opted for the classic method of burning charcoal briquettes in her car, and apparently also left a will. A variety of potentially salacious details threaten to emerge.

    Strangely, these news about foods brought me memories of a short movie, "isle of flowers", quite interesting for me when I watched for the first time. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2855736949121066289... More

2.5% of Children Not Erogamers, But 13% Don’t Deny?

Konata was actually just having trouble with her aircon whilst watching Ana.

The Mainichi “2.5% of children erogamers” story turns out to be fake scaremongering after all, and my scepticism seems correct; the lying hacks completely twisted the figures, in fact “adult games” was referring to the likes of GTA, and there was a separate category for “H games”, which they completely ignored, and the results? 0.7% admitted to playing them, though 12.4% (the highest non-response) declined to respond? Interesting.

This does however still leave 0.7% bold enough to admit it, and a lot of the sample unwilling to respond, so the true figure is anyone’s guess. I can’t help suspecting that the proportion actually sexually active is probably higher than these figures for eroge, so it does bring the whole thing into focus as mere media scaremongering anyway. The table in question is below, source here.

Mrs Wide Open, or 沢本あすか / Asuka Sawamoto as she likes to call herself, Akiba’s “eternally 22” exposure idol and career criminal (30), has revealed in a shocking admission to gossip rag Spa that she was put up to her antics by a TV producer offering cash to guarantee a “performance”. Mrs Wide Open says she was propositioned by one of the numerous TV pressmen covering her exhibitionistic antics – “I’d like to pin it [a flash of your posterior] down” she alleges she was asked.

Livedoor Fooled by Busty Newscaster

Livedoor Fooled by Busty Newscaster: Taiwanese news announcer is a actually shopped 赤江珠緒 / Akae Tamao

These provocative images of an apparent newscaster proved the bane of Livedoor, as rather than showing “Taiwan’s ultra sexy announcer is all the rage in China” (mirrored by Internews, as the original has been pulled), as their published story claimed, the photos were actually shopped images of 赤江珠緒 / Akae Tamao, an Asahi TV newscaster, published on Maniaxz. Livedoor’s story was soon exposed by the terrifying analytical powers of 2ch, noting the obvious identity of the lady as well as the unnatural pallor of her oversized endowment.

Livedoor somehow managed to spin this shopped image into an entire article, claiming she was a hit Taiwanese celeb in China, something which rather casts doubt on their journalistic rigour, and being exposed as fools, they promptly withdrew the article with nary a word. Clearly, writing articles about photoshopped images is something only blogs can get away with.

Japanese Youth: IQ and Lust in Decline?

Japanese young men no longer visit brothels - the reason seems obvious

Two rather similar stories come to my attention via Itainews, one alleging that Japanese youth are suffering from a decline in literacy and historical knowledge, and another asserting the Japan’s sex trade is facing dire straits because young men no longer have the sex drive they once had (presumably they are pursuing alternatives rather than abstinence, although the article doesn’t address this for reasons which will become obvious).

Kojima Denies PS3 Rubbish – Claims Mistranslation

Kojima denies he said the PS3 couldn't live up to his expectations

There was something of a furore when Metal Gear Solid 4 creator 小島秀夫 / Hideo Kojima gave an interview to Edge and was quoted as saying “The original vision was to go ten steps further, the reality was just one step”, amongst other negative statements about the PS3 platform. Now on his own blog, he denies all, and claims it was in fact a mistranslation; his humble and self abasing Japanese was distorted through translation and cultural misinterpretation, as well as shameless media exaggeration in pursuit of page views, and so he was grievously misquoted.
