He may be a bit strange, but I think it’s pretty shitty that you suggest someone jump him and steal his money.

I sorta feel sorry for him :/…even though it is something he wants to do and fully enjoy it…can’t help but think about what he really feels in general…

This guy is great! I love the handshake routine… Haha!

The reason he buys multiple of the same dvd’s is because the events that he goes to have promotions were if you buy 2 dvd’s you can take pictures with the girls…

I still wonder how much the poor girls make doing these things! Seriously, they can be getting paid that much!

scary. stomach-churning. jaw-dropping. real. Not sure whether to be more embarrassed for him or the poor girls who have to endure it all, in the name of a living. The mad rush to get a final shot in, the mortification of the handshake routine, the purchasing of multiple copies of the DVDs, the balls (only figuratively) to allow a camera crew along for the ride – so many lowlights. And the most sobering thought is, there are thousands more like him who will die alone in their one-room flat surrounded by used Kleenex and a billion yen’s-worth of unwatched soft porn.
Lives at home…? I think his parents disowned him 25 years ago. But hey – looking forward to that interview!!

my girlfriend says she met this guy a whole bunch of times.

i’ll see if i can find him and at least ask him where he gets his money.

it’s kind of interesting that the japanese news crew didn’t ask that.

though i guess it’s because they already knew the answer, same as i do.

Thanks for the tip. I’ll see if I can’t arrange for one of these idol events in Vancouver. I know these streets like the back of my hand.

And I could use $170,000.

Darin:

I’m busy tomorrow, but I’m totally up for the idea of doing some sort of Japan Probe TV/Videocast type thing in the future. I think I’ve got an old Sony Digital8 camcorder lying around somewhere in the trash piles in my apartment.

This is an amazing story. I’m exceptionally jealous of your ability to actually know what’s going on in these Japanese TV clips.

Seriously, this is an awesome blog. Keep up the great work. You’re going on my blog roll.

Yours,

If you see Mr. Nakamura walking down the street in Akihabara, I suggest you jump him and take his money. If you catch him on a Sunday morning he will probably be carrying a lot of cash with him.

Dude, do you have a video camera? What say you and I go find him this Sunday and interview him for a Japan Probe exclusive!
