This is like, one of the best news sites, ever.
Why? Because it's the most sensational news that they'll let come across in Japan, in English.
It's just so... Asian. Overly exaggerated...
Shaped so perfectly so that the headlines GRAB you but if you look at the facts, they all seem like very isolated incidents. The actual article is even written very objectively.
From what I hear, Japan is one of the safest places to live but you have one stabbing here and one rape/murder there (literally, just one versus the hundreds in say, NYC- but then again I totally am saying that based on reasoning after watching one season of SVU...) and the media wants everyone on edge!
The eye catching headlines are what make this site! You know what happens or you want to know what happens after 3 seconds of reading because:
"Yakuza eye-stabbing killer gets 22 years in prison"
"Man falsely imprisoned for rape meets real culprit for first time"
"Suspect held for kicking homeless man to death at Tokyo park"
"Old man acquitted for fatal shooting of paint thinner-addicted son"
O_o yummy
