translation:

The tiny letters say: only one third of his eyes is black (meaning he looks so scary)

The event space was a very cold place. Chika said "I’m freezing, Alec might not show up with his black no sleeve shirt"

The Empire showed up fully smiling! he looks like a totally different person. Chika and the others said "wow, he looks so cute and sweet!!!!!! He's different than I have imagined him!!!!"

Then of course he took the jacket off to show up his famous black shirt. People there were getting excited. woooooooo

Then Chika noticed Alec has a big scar on his right arm and talked with her friends about it. One of Chika's friends, the girl on the right said, "he must have done it to show his bravery!" (btw Japanese people do put cigar ash to their arms to show their bravery and that's what the conversation above is about). Chika said "nooo I doubt it" "what person would put cigar ash on his arms from the top to the bottom!!" the girl on the left said "he must have been injured at a very aggressive live show!" oh well, what's the real story??? We never know...

Later Alec turned out as usual when the live show started. (The letters above Alec say "back light") Chika and her friends are attracted to Alec very much... Chika said, "how he is so gorgeous!" and one of her friends at the first row got her foot stomped by someone.

Hello v knid, this made me chuckle, I used to live in Japan and I have to say that it is a fantastic place in every sense. I used to travel to work on the train opposite adults reading this sort of stuff ,they have a funny sense of humour,sort of sadistic mr bean. One game show I watched involved three men running along the beach with fireworks attached to their heads.The first one to compleate certain tasks got to run into the sea and put the firework out,the rest had to suffer the consequences. It's never dull and the food is amazing.

Yeah, there was an interview with Norman Cook, who's out there for the World Cup, the other week... he was basically saying that the deadpan surreal Japanese sense of humour is really underrated. We all gawp at 'weird' japanese obsessions, toys, misspellings of english etc, but we don't realise how much of it is done with full knowledge of the absurdity of it all.

Damn, I love Jap food as well - if I ever eat out, 8 times out of 10 I'll end up stuffing sashimi and chicken yakitori down my throat. It's sooo subtle (when it's done right), light yet satisfying, and healthy without being boring or stodgy.

I think you would would really enjoy Japan, V Knid. Liking the food and embracing the sense of humour will ensure you have a great trip. They really are quite isolated, the longest anyone gets off work is a week at a time and it is by far the strangest place I have ever been to if you scratch the surface.
Tokyo is so vibrant,friendly and alive, even the bus-stops talk to you to tell you when the buses are comming! The people I met were just up for showing you their world and having a good laugh, they made the most jovial drunks I've ever come across.
Businessmen fall asleep in their food after one too many and it's the only place i've been to where you can find saki vending machines whilst climbing a mountain! Of course there's a dark side to the culture, but that's the same wherever you go. They like the British, I hope our reputation is still intact after the World Cup...
By the way, speaking of Japanese food ,I worked for a company that made octopus in a dumpling, a food they sell in the street. The company wanted to market it in the U.K! I didn't really think it would catch on...
