Next she’ll be saying the gaijin tied her up and forced her to take drugs !
Oh I’m sure she’s tried THAT one in the interrogation already.
Japan is weird.
When did you visit or live here?
Any vignettes come to mind that you experienced?
Always blaming the Gai-Jin.
NOT GUILTY!!!1!
God, she is beautiful.
But she doesn't look entirely Japanese - she looks like a cute anglo/asian girl here in the States...
100% local, pure, Yamato-minzoku (Japanese). I can assure you.
This is no longer your uncle's or grandfather's Japan. Belieeeeive me, things have changed:
On the other hand,
有罪。
At any rate, my guess is if she does not sass them back too much while in the iron slammer, she will be let go for poor evidence (small trace amounts), and her clever destruction of other evidence (cell phone smashed to smithereens, cutting hair--which can also be tested for meth, waiting one week before going in for a urine test, etc.), etc. however her career is shot and she is probably heading down the same deadend path as Michael Jackson, John Belushi, Jim Morrison, et.al. unless she pulls back from the abyss. Just my take.
Japanese for “not guilty” and “guilty”.
The photo at the top of the thread doesn’t even do her justice. She is very beautiful. Lovely voice too, although her popular music tends to be sappy love ballads and such.
Most likely one with a suit that looks two sizes too big for him, lots of gold jewelry, etc.
I wouldn't be caught dead in Roppongi these days.
99.9% of the drugs coming into or manufactured in Japan controlled by the Yakuza , either Japanese or Chinese . Now they may hire Africans and other “ gaijins “ to sell the stuff in clubs and on the streets , but the “ gaijins inevitably get blamed . Just like when the AIDS panic happened back in the late 80’s/early 90’s . Admittedly , AIDS didn’t originate in Japan , but it was through casual sex with foreigners and others that created the problem here . All these Japanes women weren’t raped either . They surrendered more than willingly . But blame the gaijin . I was on a train in Tokyo once and I heard a mother tell her kid not to get too close to me because I might have AIDS ! This kind of thing happened to some of my friends , too . Like anywhere else , living in Japan is a love/hate relationship . I must say that the good outweighs the bad , otherwise I wouldn’t still be here .
With the obligatory “ English “ added to the Japanese lyrics , right . Watashi wa anata ni I LOVE YOU ! LOL ! ; )
Her own arrest (bust?) oops.. was her turning herself in at a small Japanese police station in shitamachi, and then being transferred to Shibuya keisatsu for official booking. I doubt the foreigner setup. It is a known fact that a lot of this junk out there floats freely among Japanese entertainment world people, and where it comes in from is Japanese yakuza. In fact, Noriko's father was yakuza, brother as well. Tough family.
Japan seems like a weird place. What do you think would happen if their borders became wide open (sort of like how our borders here in the States are unofficially wide open.)
