I took so many pictures that I got lost in the fray of flash. Truly over whelming in terms of figurines, battle games and soft porn.

 

Still, I worry about the manifestation taking place in the youth and its depiction and view of girls, not women, in this case.

 

I tended to spend more time on the Godzilla / Ultra-man / Gundham type stuff.

 

I went there to see and attempt to understand. I like Japan most of all the Asian places I have been. I worry for it and watch with hope but realize under current trends, its population is on a downward trend.

 

 

Two things made my wife uncomfortable in those 7 story stores, the porn and the soft guns. The rest of it she loved as she's a huge anime / manga fan.

 

Are you worried about the actual size of their population dwindling? From everything I've read they are too.

I am worried about thier population shrinking and the future statistical end of thier race.

 

But more so, I am worried by the societal and social norms that have lead to the manifestation that is Manga. Not the happy Yatsuba manga but the porn, the hard core porn and the view of girls in school girl skirts and thier white undies. It is open and public. In full view on magazine covers in any store. In full view for any 6 year old boy or girl to see every day, day in and day out.

 

People are not getting married, not having children, not continuing the traditional family. I see the growth of one culture and the slow death of another. Coincidence?

 

I had a discussion with our Japanese importer today. Have known him for 20 years. He did not ease my fears in any way.

 

There is more but I'm on a phone waiting for my flight to Charlotte. Hearth and home; wife and children, and about a dozen pets.

I'm concerned about the effect of unchecked population growth not only on our society but on a world scale. I think we need less people, not more.

There have to be enough Japanese to build and operate the giant robots.

I thought that's what Skynet is for?

Two eggs over medium this morning.

 

Any chance of Blowie getting meatloaf again from the Irish bar?

 

Or making the pico for the fish tacos?

 

Or Fingh using the clay pot thing?

I had a banana and peanut butter smoothie for lunch. The romertopf will not be busted out until next week.
