That dude sounds like some sales man for the Disney Empire.

I saw a later bit of that show (is that Makiko Deluxe male or female?) where they had two people driving around looking for hidden listening devices (they found one at a love ho, but skipped that) and ended up at a private home where they found one in the daughter’s bedroom which the father had planted, but I didn’t quite understand why.

Skip forward to today, and in Moriguchi city some woman stabbed her daughter then tried to top herself (or so it appears) muttering something about a hidden listening device.

Film commercially without a permit in the “real” Disneyland and you’ll get the same reaction from security.

At first I didn’t like Nezumi’s exaggerated comments and behaviours in the park, but the Chinese staff workers sounded like they wanted to bite his head off… The part where they said “We don’t welcome Japanese” was so racist.

Every nation has media that exacerbates* international tension.

Sure, there are certainly more important topics to report, but they are by no means exlusively domestic. Try the melanine hazard. By comparison, this is small peas among what one might consider to be “anti-China”.

What a great example of Japanese media intentionally acerbating inter-Asiatic conflicts. If they had encountered “fake Mickey”, what would that have done for Japan?

How about focusing on the much more urgent domestic issue of Harajuku wares which have an immediate impact (however minor) on the Japanese economy? How are the reactions of the security guards (in an amusement park…) any more disturbing than the recent actions of the Japanese police (a government agency…) dispersing a potential protest against Aso Taro?

This program is clearly just an attack ad.
