The glasses come off! Not gonna lie, I’m with Yuriko on this one. Please keep them off for a little while longer Hideo. 🥸😜

I wasn’t really sure how I would feel about him at the beginning of the game, but I gotta say he really won me over in his route. Even his bad endings were impactful.

Can y’all believe Chou no Doku Hana no Kusari will be available in English on the Switch next month?! According to Prototype’s twitter post, we can expect a free (according to the tweet) update on the Nintendo eShop that will add English to the Japanese game!

There are a few things to note, however: We all know this was originally a R-18 game but since it’ll be on the Switch, they edited the content to make it slightly less adult. It’s also worth mentioning that it hasn’t been confirmed if the translation for this version will be using the same machine translation from the mobile version that was released in English a few years back. If you check the tweet, you’ll see there’s a few screenshots with English text and the wording doesn’t look too bad but, it’s hard to tell.

Synopsis from VNDB:

Yuriko, a noblewoman in the Taisho Era, has a big party on her birthday. She then discovers her father is trying to find her a rich husband at the party, but she doesn't want to have that fate. Suddenly, some rogues break into her place and start trashing the place. She grabs a wooden sword so she can fight them, but a man saves her...

Now for the cast!!

^Wealthy trader, 28 yrs old, Shiba Junichi cv. Katou Masayuki^

^Heroine’s older brother, 22 yrs old, Nomiya Mizuhito cv. Hirakawa Daisuke^ you already know his route is gonna be effed up XD

^Nomiya family servant, age 25, Majima Yoshiki cv. Kondou Takashi^

^Nomiya family butler, 37 yrs old, Fujita Hitoshi cv. Yasumoto Hiroki^

^Army lieutenant and oldest son of a baron, 24 yrs old, Ozaki Hideo cv. Majima Junji^

I’m super excited for more games with Hirarin being localized! With my backlog, I just got around to playing Pyschedelica of the Ashen Hawk on Steam but, this will be moved up the listed because I can’t wait haha! An interesting thing mentioned on the Japanese website is that the original game on pc was made in 4:3 aspect ration but the Switch version is 16:9. This means you won’t be able to see some parts of the CG’s but you’ll be able to scroll around using the left analog or d-pad to view the entire image.

I did a quick search on ebay for used physical copies of the game and the cheapest I could find at the time of posting this was $90 usd (including shipping)! I’d suggest grabbing a digital copy from the Japanese eShop for just under $40 usd although the digital version will be released worldwide according to Prototype!

Butterfly’s Poison; Blood Chains (Chou no Doku) Part 3 - Hideo Ozaki Route

I'm quite interested in Hideo tbh, because he genuinely cares for Yuriko but it also feels like he hates her to an extent so I want to see if he'll still be a jerk lol. OH, Hideo already has a fiancee..I guess we might get a Yuriko is the mistress tragic end?🥲 I can see why Hideo's family would want to find a girl from an even more prestigious family than Yuriko's because Yuriko's mother looked down on them for thinking they could get Hideo and Yuriko to marry. I quite like how they talked about the 'what if' scenario of if Yuriko's mother wasn't against Hideo and Yuriko getting married. Hideo was definitely happy when Yuriko said they would be happy. It's actually kinda funny how Shiba has already noticed that Yuriko is a bit jealous and curious about Hideo's fiancee and teases Yuriko about it lol. It's quite amusing how everyone can tell how much Hideo and Yuriko want to be with each other except themselves lol. Honestly, they say such embarrassing things that would basically mean 'I like you' but they're so oblivious to it. But I guess more than obliviousness, they choose to believe that it shouldn't be love because they both have their circumstances that would make it too difficult if they do decide that they like each other and want to be together. I really enjoyed their night walk though, it felt sweet to see two childhood friends so honestly talk about how they felt like they've drifted apart but that even though they've grown older, they haven't really changed at heart. Hideo visiting her frequently to check on her after her mother passed away was really sweet of him, he's so considerate.

Such a happy and talkative Hideo at the zoo lol! He's actually so adorable when he's talking about animals, I didn't expect that haha. Honestly, even though I'm as happy as Yuriko is that Hideo is always inviting her out, I am also worried about the fiancee thing considering he's been going to Yuriko's house lately and is now going out with her to the zoo and an opera too, people would definitely misunderstand. Hideo holding her hand in the crowd to make sure she's okay was so unexpected but cute. Ughhh I hate how their date got ruined, I didn't want them to face reality yet and not in this way that could affect Hideo's military career either. But I'm still really happy that Hideo prioritised protecting Yuriko above everything else. Hideo so genuinely laughing at Yuriko asking him whether he still wants to fly in the sky like a bird because he said he wanted to be a bird when he was a child is so adorableee. Yuriko really was a wild child lol, untying her obi sash to use as a rope to save Hideo when he fell into the water chasing after birds is just such a hilarious scene to imagine. Awww Hideo and Yuriko taking that awkward photo by the river was super cute! It's probably going to bite them in the ass later but I don't even care because they're so innocent and sweet, how can we not support their love?! They should run away together like Yuriko said in the beginning lol.

My heart broke when Hideo said he volunteered to go to war in Siberia. I understand his reasons, and it's true that it's probably one of the only ways for him to refuse the engagement with a lady from such a prestigious family without shaming his family but I hate it. I absolutely hate it. I love it that Hideo would rather go to war and believe in the off chance that he'll survive and come back and be able to marry Yuriko, showing how much he loves her and refuses to marry anyone besides her. But I'm sorry I can't do it, I'm too weak. If I was Yuriko, I wouldn't be able to bear the idea of the man I love going so far away just so we could possibly be together. I'd rather we separate and he marry someone else. I'd rather he live in sadness than die. I don't want Hideo to die. There's so many ways he could die. He could die on the way there, from the war, from disease and so many other things! I wouldn't want him to go even if it was in the modern day, let alone the Taisho era! I just wouldn't be able to tolerate the idea of him dying in a foreign place when he didn't need to go. It's just too heartbreaking. I loved how they shared a kiss as they bathed in the sights of the town together, and naturally, they gave themselves to each other before Hideo departed. I hated having to watch them cry at being torn apart and possibly never seeing each other again, but I also really loved how pure their love is for each other with one determined to come back no matter what and the other determined to wait for them no matter what. It's just depressing to think about all the people who have gone through this before and never got their happy endings.

Sawako seems like a great woman and I think Hideo would be happy with her in the other routes where Yuriko is with someone else haha. I think if he got to see the strength she showed Yuriko, he would be able to love her. Hideo defied military orders and came back because he found out about Majima from another officer. It's actually kinda funny though, everyone has someone that recognises Majima in every route, it's like dang Majima, you're really not good at hiding this are you lol. I'm so glad that Hideo is leaving the military, I hope he can pursue his true interests now. Oh wow, he's already been studying birds in his spare time and has already published papers?! Dayum boy! He's already set lol. I'm honestly so happy for them, the ending made me feel so warm, they'll definitely bicker a lot but they'll also cherish each other a lot and thinking about their future makes me super happy for them haha. I was mad on behalf of Yuriko knowing that she always has to follow along with Hideo to discover new birds species in all kinds of places and having to separate from their son, but I guess I'm soft-hearted like Yuriko too, because when he said he can't live without her and can't concentrate when she isn't beside him, I couldn't get mad at him, because we all know how much Hideo loves her and how he's willing to give his life for her, so I really believe him when he says that living apart from Yuriko is like living without air, he really might die lol. I knew the tragic ending would be Hideo dying in Siberia, but thinking about Hideo's wonky writing in his letters as he got more and more exhausted, and the crinkled photo of them by the river being found in his military uniform just made me want to cry. The other tragic ending was honestly tough to read. Knowing how straight-laced Hideo is but having to have an affair in order to be with Yuriko, and he can only meet her once a week, but be forced to face reality every time he sees her bulging stomach and the limitations to their relationship, but still be unable to let it go because he loves her too much, everything just honestly breaks my heart. Seeing Hideo go from angry, happy, sad and just keep going through those rollercoaster of emotions in a short span of time of meeting her just hurts. He knows he's terrible but he can't even stop himself because he hates how he can't be Yuriko's husband no matter what and that's just so painful to watch.

Overall, I really loved Hideo's route, definitely my favourite for now haha. It had everything I wanted for a love restricted by things like social status, responsibility, duty and a strong passion for true love. I've always liked Hideo so I'm happy for him in the best end that they're able to be together even if they got distant because of things outside of their hands. I loved how we slowly got to watch over Hideo and Yuriko go again from awkwardly talking to each other, reminiscing about their past to quite openly showing how much they love and care for each other. I loved how Hideo put in so much effort to visit Yuriko and take her out when her mother passed away, and I loved how they were like childish little lovebirds when they ran away to the river, kissed, had a fight and took a photo showing their desire to marry and be together forever. I hated how Hideo decided to go to war, but I loved that it showed how much he was willing to sacrifice just for the chance to be with Yuriko. It showed the depth of his love for her and how much he didn't want a life that didn't have her as his wife, which is why I can see why the tragic ending tormented him so, especially when he believed that Yuriko didn't try hard enough to be with him and just married Shiba. I loved how they're truly like childhood friends that are unafraid to share exactly what they think with each other but still show how much they care for the other. I really liked their relationship and I thought it was really cute and sweet. I wish I could see more of them haha!

[aishaarashi]

heya do u have any recommendations of otome with at least one kichiku megane-esque male lead? thnx

Oh wow, ok, I'll try my best.

So, do you want the LI's to wear glasses or do you want them to behave like a certain character from Kichiku Megane?

Code: Realize: (it is a sweet game tho) Victor Frankenstein = Sweet and gentle-hearted but has very low self-esteem. Wears glasses.

Abraham Van Helsing = Serious and does his best to keep his emotions locked. Wears glasses.

Saint-Germain = Mysterious and has a Fox-like personality. Finds dangerous things amusing. Does not wear glasses.

Amnesia: Kent = Has an awkward and insensitive personality. Wears glasses.

Toma = The childhood friend. Has a dark and jealous personality. Does not wear glasses.

Ikki = Appears to be a playboy, but is actually a kind attentive person. Does not wear glasses.

Shin = Childhood friend. He is a reserved and mysterious person. Does not wear glasses.

Cupid Parasite: (light-hearted game) Allan = He is like an onion. His personality comes in layers. Flirty, obnoxious, sweet, etc. Full of angst. Does not wear glasses.

The Second Reproduction: (somewhat angsty game) Gardis = Has an obsessive and protective personality. Does not wear glasses.

Jin = Is manipulative, sadistic, and a dangerous man. Does not wear glasses.

Piofiore (has violence, bloodshed, and abuse in it) Nicola = Looks kind-hearted and is a flirt. Lying comes like second nature to him. Does not wear glasses.

Yang = Is a moody person. Doesn't care about anybody and will sacrifice anyone as long as he is entertained. Does not wear glasses.

Butterfly’s Poison; Blood Chains (prostitution, incest, abuse, etc.) Junichi Shiba = Has an arrogant attitude. Does not wear glasses.

Hideo Ozaki = Is such a Tsundere! Childhood friend. Wears glasses.

It is hard to find otome games with the same characteristics as a BL game. This is because in my eyes BL games get away with so much more than otome games.

Wikipedia, the Free Online Encyclopedia- | Chris | Trial 5.2 | Re: Akira, Rafe, Sorano, Willow mainly | ATTN: NPCs, All

Chris listens with his head tilted to the side at Akira’s answer in thought. There still had to be something they were missing there, some rule that hadn’t been made clear to them or BS that would be pulled, but it was a start at least.

“Thanks for the answers, though it leads me to have some more questions too. First, will it be ONLY the six of us who are voting on this, or will the audience have some say as well?” Given uh, the gimmick of this season and all, that seemed pretty important to know if they’d have to deal with it or not.

“And next, what were the grand prizes of those who died, then? What was Yuuma’s grand prize in particular, too? Seems pretty important to know, since it probably SHOULD be going into effect but they’re actively trying to keep it from happening with Ayumi’s situation, or at least that’s how it’s being made out to be. Feels like something we should be told.”

And then, Chris gives a nod of agreement to essentially every other player but Rafe, and for reasons more than him just being Rafe. In particular, he looks at Sorano and surprisingly(?) Willow in agreement most recently for the details they’re bringing up. Good, seemed like the rest of them at least were on the same page here. 

“Exactly. Finding the ‘mastermind’ among us isn't the issue here, and is frankly a waste of time given everything we know, so I recommend not bothering with it for now. I think the audience would be much more interested in us going over everything else behind the scenes with the board instead,” he clarifies, because yeah, he’s only going to double down on that opening recommendation.

“To finish off what knowledge I had from around the maps before this investigation though, the names of all five board members were among all of the names listed on the tiles of the Theme Park in chapter 3, and in chapter 4 there was a large tapestry depiction in the Museum about a king and his crown being divided among five people that then kept the power for themself, obviously alluding to the TE board members hanging onto their power and pushing their own agendas despite Tomo being an adult now.”

He takes out his personal notebook almost lazily before continuing, idly flipping through to cross reference between a few things.

  "The names and occupations given in Chapter 5's Dressing Room puzzle were at times suspiciously similar to the Board member's themselves, so I'm pretty sure that was something too. In particular, Nobuo Ozaki is the COO of Kimi Health and Housing, which is actually a Yakuza front, where as 'Nagito' was a Yakuza Boss in the puzzle. Sadao Hashimoto is in control of the TE legal team and is obviously corrupt as fuck and lets them get away with all kinds of shit, while 'Sadou' is a Corrupt Lawyer in the puzzle.  

Yataro I would assume would be the Affair Partner 'Hatoru'. I don't want to make assumptions, but apparently he's close with Tomo's mom Yumi Tomomi given it seems as though she trusts him enough to let her into Tomo's home, and he's had public suspicions on his relationship with Tatsuo Tomomi himself too. Whatever the case and romantic or not, he’s playing people. 

Hideo Muramoto by the way was the asshole who told Akira to 'give her what she wants' in that one memory of his we saw, and was also involved heavily with the kaiju genre of film production, obviously being referenced by 'Orochi' the Kaiju in the puzzle. That would leave Hanako Tamashiro as the Brothel Owner 'Yuriko', which honestly doesn't surprise me.”

Dear GOD Chris has so much information on these fuckers, and it's finally the time to get it all out there.

He also gives a wave back to Sorano at that kidnapping from other countries comment, who is now sitting right beside him. Hello indeed. 

“Given you all seem to have found the same information that we did, I’d like to clarify some of it. Specifically, in regard to what the TE Board and Tatsuo did to Hirohito Watanabe because he was gaining popularity as a socialist politician. It was 8 years ago, and Tomo was apparently brought to watch this at 14 years old as a ‘lesson’ that he didn’t handle well. The board members planned to kidnap Hirohito’s child, Touma Watanabe, and hold them for ransom to make him drop out of things with the public excuse that it was random gang members who were doing it. Obviously, it was actually orchestrated by them in reality.

But, apparently, something went either went wrong or there was possibly a change of plans, because when Hirohito went to meet with them, he was shot, and murdered. Touma was also shot, but survived, and is still out there. Pretty fucking much in the end, it was a politcal assassination after a political kidnapping of a child, all done by Tatsuo Tomomi and the five board members still in control. I put a lot of that shit and the previous stuff together with the power of Wikipedia, by the way.”

All hail Wikipedia…

A Complete List of Official Fire Emblem Novels

Hey there, everyone!

Today, I haven’t prepared a translation, but a comprehensive list of every official Fire Emblem novel out there!

My ultimate goal is to translate them all myself, but... obviously, that’s an insanely huge project. I’ll just focus on them one at a time. :)

Whether you’d like to collect them yourself, or just be aware of what exists, this list should be perfect for you!

There is a list on Serenes Forest, but it’s missing a lot of pictures and ISBNs, and makes finding the books on Amazon and other sites take some extra work. This should help everyone out a lot. :)

If you’d like to buy them yourself and are in Japan, Amazon.jp and Suruga-ya (駿河屋) are your best options. Best of luck and sorry for stealing a lot of the good deals! ^^’ Ebay is probably your best bet for outside of Japan? Not entirely sure.

Enjoy!

Meiji Period (1868-1945)

The Meiji period marks the re-opening of Japan to the West, and a period of rapid industrialization. The introduction of European literature brought free verse into the poetic repertoire; it became widely used for longer works embodying new intellectual themes. Young Japanese prose writers and dramatists struggled with a whole galaxy of new ideas and artistic schools, but novelists were the first to successfully assimilate some of these concepts.

In the early Meiji period (1868–1880s), Fukuzawa Yukichi and Water Margin authored Enlightenment literature, while pre-modern popular books depicted the quickly changing country. Then Realism was brought in by Tsubouchi Shoyo and Futabatei Shimei in the mid-Meiji (late 1880s - early 1890s) while the Classicism of Ozaki Koyo, Yamada Bimyo and Koda Rohan gained popularity. Ichiyo Higuchi, a rare woman writer in this era, wrote short stories on powerless women of this age in a simple style in between literary and colloquial. Kyoka Izumi, a favored disciple of Ozaki, pursued a flowing and elegant style and wrote early novels such as The Operating Room (1895) in literary style and later ones including The Holy Man of Mount Koya (1900) in colloquial Japanese.

Romanticism was brought in by Mori Ogai with his anthology of translated poems (1889) and carried to its height by Toson Shimazaki etc. and magazines Myojo and Bungaku-kai in early 1900s. Mori also wrote some modern novels including The Dancing Girl (1890), Wild Geese (1911), then later wrote historical novels. Natsume Soseki, who is often compared with Mori Ogai, wrote I Am a Cat (1905) with humor and satire, then depicted fresh and pure youth in Botchan (1906) and Sanshirô (1908). He eventually pursued transcendence of human emotions and egoism in his later works including Kokoro (1914) his last and unfinished novel Light and Darkness (1916).

Shimazaki shifted from Romanticism to Naturalism which was established with his The Broken Commandment (1906) and Katai Tayama's Futon (1907). Naturalism hatched the "I Novel" (Watakushi-shôsetu) that describes the authors themselves and depicts their own mental states. Neo-romanticism came out of anti-naturalism and was led by Kafu Nagai, Jun'ichiro Tanizaki, Kotaro Takamura, Hakushu Kitahara and so on in the early 1910s. Saneatsu Mushanokoji, Naoya Shiga and others founded a magazine Shirakaba in 1910. They shared a common characteristic, Humanism. Shiga's style was autobiographical and depicted states of his mind and sometimes classified as "I Novel" in this sense. Ryunosuke Akutagawa, who was highly praised by Soseki, wrote short stories including Rashomon (1915) with an intellectual and analytic attitude, and represented Neo-realism in the mid 1910s.

During the 1920s and early 1930s the proletarian literary movement, comprising such writers as Takiji Kobayashi, Denji Kuroshima, Yuriko Miyamoto, and Ineko Sata produced a politically radical literature depicting the harsh lives of workers, peasants, women, and other downtrodden members of society, and their struggles for change.

War-time Japan saw the début of several authors best known for the beauty of their language and their tales of love and sensuality, notably Jun'ichiro Tanizaki and Japan's first winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature, Yasunari Kawabata, a master of psychological fiction. Ashihei Hino wrote lyrical bestsellers glorifying the war, while Tatsuzo Ishikawa attempted to publish a disturbingly realistic account of the advance on Nanjing. Writers who opposed the war include Denji Kuroshima, Mitsuharu Kaneko, Hideo Oguma, and Jun Ishikawa.

10:40Chính phủ Nhật Bản khổ vì giá cả quá ổn định

Ở Nhật Bản, nhiều người không có khái niệm hàng hóa phải tăng giá đều đặn theo thời gian. "Những người sinh ra trong thập niên 1980 và 1990 hầu như không có trải nghiệm về lạm phát. Vì vậy, ngay cả những lúc họ được thông báo rằng lạm phát đang đến, họ vẫn không tin điều đó", ông Tsutomu Watanabe, Giáo sư Đại học Tokyo và là cựu nhân viên ngân hàng trung ương nước này cho biết.

Một thanh niên 20 tuổi ở Nhật Bản ngày nay đã trải qua mức lạm phát trung bình 0,1% trong suốt cuộc đời. Do đó, không có gì ngạc nhiên khi Thống đốc Ngân hàng Trung ương Nhật Bản Haruhiko Kuroda nói rằng mục tiêu lạm phát 2% là không thể đạt được.

Một giai đoạn giá gần như đi ngang quá dài là bản chất của quá trình "Nhật Bản hóa", mà cả Mỹ và châu Âu đều đang sợ rơi vào. Tương tự Ngân hàng Nhật Bản, Cục dự trữ liên bang Mỹ (Fed) mong muốn lạm phát ở mức 2% vì thấy nó phù hợp với một nền kinh tế thị trường lành mạnh. Dù lạm phát của Mỹ đã tiến gần tới mức đó nhưng vẫn thấp hơn mục tiêu trong nhiều năm nay.

Chính vì thế, các quan chức Fed đang xem xét nhiều phương pháp để tránh rơi vào bẫy lạm phát thấp đã khiến Nhật Bản "khốn đốn". Các tuyển chọn được cân nhắc bao gồm cho phép rõ ràng hơn hoặc thậm chí là khuyến khích lạm phát trên 2% để nâng cao kỳ vọng lạm phát của công chúng.

Bởi lẽ, các ngân hàng trung ương tin rằng, kỳ vọng lạm phát thấp có thể dẫn đến tâm lý là người tiêu dùng sẽ chùn bước nếu giá cả hàng hoá cao hơn và doanh nghiệp sẽ kiềm chế trong việc tăng giá cả và tiền lương.

"Lạm phát phần lớn dưới mục tiêu của chúng ta có thể dẫn đến một động lực không lành mạnh, khiến kỳ vọng lạm phát dài hạn giảm xuống và kéo lạm phát thực tế thậm chí còn thấp hơn", Chủ tịch Fed Jerome Powell nói trong một cuộc họp báo ngày 11/12.

Natsumi Ozaki, sinh viên đại học làm việc bán thời gian tại Tokyo Disney Resort, đã từ chối mua một món quà lưu niệm sau khi nó tăng giá. "Tôi thường ngạc nhiên khi một thứ nhỏ như vậy có thể có giá cao đến thế. Tôi đôi khi phải từ bỏ việc mua hàng vì có giá cao hơn tôi nhớ", cô cho biết.

Nghiên cứu của ông Kuroda đã cho thấy kỳ vọng lạm phát thấp đã khiến lạm phát ở Nhật không thể tăng nổi. Người tiêu dùng nước này đã quen với việc giá hàng hóa thấp và trừng phạt bất kỳ nhà bán lẻ nào cố gắng tăng giá.

Rina Sato, một sinh viên đại học 22 tuổi, cho biết cô không mua nước ngọt thời gian gần đây vì các siêu thị trong khu phố không chịu giảm giá bán. "Vì tôi biết giá có thể thấp hơn nên tôi không muốn mua với giá thông thường. Nếu chờ một lúc nữa, giá có thể sẽ giảm", cô nói.

Hideo Hayakawa, cựu giám đốc điều hành Ngân hàng Nhật Bản, nhớ lại phản ứng dữ dội từ các nhà kinh tế trẻ sau khi ngân hàng trung ương bắt đầu mua một lượng lớn trái phiếu từ các ngân hàng thương mại nhằm nỗ lực thúc đẩy lạm phát.

Ông giải thích, khi người tiêu dùng nhìn thấy dòng tiền lớn đổ vào hệ thống ngân hàng thương mại nhờ vào việc bán trái phiếu thì chắc chắn sẽ chuẩn bị cho lạm phát cao hơn. Các nhà kinh tế trẻ cho rằng vì người dân không quen với việc tăng giá nên có dùng cách này thì họ vẫn không chấp nhận lạm phát. Và họ đã nói đúng.

Ngay cả các người Nhật đủ già để còn nhớ đến lạm phát là gì thì dường như họ cũng không chấp nhận quan điểm cần phải có lạm phát của các ngân hàng trung ương. Đối với Ngân hàng Nhật Bản và Fed, lạm phát ổn định ở mức 2% là để tránh cho quốc gia rơi vào vòng xoáy của giá cả hàng hóa giảm, tiền lương giảm và nhu cầu yếu. Nhưng với người dân Nhật bình thường, giá tăng có vẻ là một biểu hiện xấu.

Các quan chức Fed tại cuộc họp tháng 12/2019 đã đồng ý rằng họ cần trao đổi rõ ràng hơn với công chúng về lý do Fed muốn và cam kết thực hiện lạm phát 2% trên cơ sở bền vững.

Một vấn đề khác đối với nhiều ngân hàng trung ương trên thế giới là họ cắt giảm lãi suất xuống gần hoặc dưới 0 sau cuộc khủng hoảng tài chính để thúc đẩy tăng trưởng và lạm phát. Giờ thì với lạm phát và lãi suất đã rất thấp, họ ít có cơ hội hạ lãi suất trong cuộc suy thoái tiếp theo.

Cựu Bộ trưởng Tài chính Mỹ Lawrence Summers cho biết trong một cuộc phỏng vấn gần đây rằng các ngân hàng trung ương đã "cạn kiệt đạn dược". "Một khi bạn tiến tới lãi suất gần như bằng không, thì nó giống như một lỗ đen", ông nói.

Ông Kuroda cho rằng việc nâng lạm phát cho Nhật vẫn khả thi, nhưng phải mất nhiều thời gian. Theo ông, tăng dần tiền lương và giá cả ở mức độ nhẹ sẽ thay đổi nhận thức về giá cả trong khoảng thời gian dài.

Rentaro Nomura, một sinh viên đại học 22 tuổi, đã được tăng lương 2 lần trong 4 năm qua trong công việc bán thời gian tại trung tâm tiệc cưới, nơi anh ta kiếm được gần 13 USD mỗi giờ. Anh muốn nhận việc toàn vài ngày sau khi tốt nghiệp và hy vọng lương sẽ tăng tiếp.

Nhưng anh cũng muốn tiết kiệm thu nhập vì lo lắng cho cuộc sống sau khi nghỉ hưu. Điều này phản ánh rằng, người Nhật vẫn sợ lương có tăng vẫn không đủ tiền trang trải cuộc sống nhiều tốn kém hơn.

Do vậy, Giáo sư Watanabe của Đại học Tokyo không lạc quan như ông Kuroda. "Quan điểm về giá cả trong số những người ở độ tuổi 20 và 30 có lẽ sẽ không bao giờ thay đổi trong suốt quãng đời còn lại", ông nói.

Why My sex doll is so much better than my real wife

Masayuki Ozaki bobbed back when the start left his marriage — by beginning another sentiment with an elastic sex doll he swears is the affection for his life.

The ultra-practical silicone sham, called Mayu, shares his bed under an indistinguishable rooftop from his better half and high school girl in Tokyo, a bizarre course of action that activated irate contentions previously the family pronounced a fragile ceasefire.

Ozaki, 45, stated: “After my better half conceived an offspring, we quit having intercourse and I felt a profound feeling of depression.”

“Yet, the minute I saw Mayu in the showroom, it was unexplainable adoration.”

“My better half was angry when I initially brought Mayu home. Nowadays she endures it, reluctantly.”

“At the point when my girl acknowledged it wasn’t a goliath Barbie doll, she went crazy and said it was gross — yet now she’s mature enough to share Mayu’s garments.”

Ozaki, who acts as a physiotherapist, takes his doll out on dates in a wheelchair and dresses her in wigs, provocative garments and adornments.

  He confesses to being killed by human connections, including amid an ocean side walk around his elastic partner: “Japanese ladies are coldblooded.”

“They’re extremely childish. Men need somebody to hear them out without protesting when they return home from work.”

“Whatever issues I have, Mayu is dependably there sitting tight for me. I cherish her to bits and need to be with her eternity.”

“I can’t envision backpedaling to an individual. I need to be covered with her and take her to paradise.”

Ozaki is one of an expanding number of Japanese men swinging to sentimental associations with cheap sex dolls in a nation that has formally lost its magic.

Specialists are stressed by Japan’s diving birth rate, which postures difficult issues for the eventual fate of the economy as it confronts a lessening number of laborers.

Be that as it may, a developing number of men — known as “herbivores” — are playing Judas on marriage and conventional manly esteems for a calm, uncompetitive life.

  Consistently around 2,000 of the life-like sex dolls — which cost from $6,000 and accompany flexible fingers, removable head and sensible private parts — are sold in Japan.

Hideo Tsuchiya, overseeing executive of doll creator Orient Industry, stated: “Innovation has made some amazing progress since those awful inflatable dolls in the 1970s.”

“They look unbelievably genuine now and it feels like you’re touching human skin. More men are getting them since they believe they can really speak with the dolls.”

They are prominent with incapacitated clients and widowers, and mannequin fetishists, and a few men utilize dolls to maintain a strategic distance from anguish.

The Schmucks in Charge | Chris | Trial 5.1 | ATTN: Everyone, Mentors

The VR experience was still incredibly annoying to Chris, even if he is glad that he doesn’t have to wake up in the pod at the very least at the end. He stretches his back and then his limbs, opting to leave the talking for when the trial itself is meant to start and just giving a nod of acknowledgement to Ayumi. 

And once he’s in the commons, ready for the trial… he lays back on the couch casually as usually, no more stressed or tired than he’s been this entire game now even as they sat at the end of it. He’d won a billion yen, huh? Cool. He probably wouldn’t be keeping most of it himself if he did actually get it in the end more than likely. But that wasn’t really a concern to him right now. Instead, he gives a hum to clear his throat as the trial is allowed to start, and doesn’t miss a beat to start talking.

“So, I think it’s pretty obvious what we should be talking about in this trial, yeah? This is a mastermind trial, after all. So we should discuss who exactly is running this show behind the scenes and the kind of shit they’ve been pulling. Tomo’s the figurehead of things, sure, but there are five people other controlling this shit and who turned the first season into the murder game it was in the first place.

Namely, the TE board members: Nobuo Ozaki, Hanako Tamashiro, Hideo Muramoto, Sadao Hashimoto, and Yataro Hato. Been a good few references to them all in just about every map to go over, if I recall. Those are the people we should all be making this trial about right now.”

Seems as though he’s immediately turning the topic of the conversation in this direction, giving a look to the others here as he recommends they do the same. It was still following the purpose of a trial like this, after all. Stick to the topic. 

“I mentioned it before in our last event, but in the first chapter’s maps had bust statues of Nobuo, Hideo, Sadao, and Yataro, but not one of Hanako in the Rage Room. Apparently Hanako was the one in charge of that chapter too, so maybe that makes sense.  

In chapter two though, it was in the Prison that there was the next reference to some of them, their names being used in the prisoner’s dilemma puzzle. Or, more accurately, it was all of them except Yatoro that was used in the puzzle. Makes me wonder if that chapter was his to run. Chapter 2 was also when I managed to get a book about TE from the library that made mention of them all, so that’s when I started putting that shit together”

He glances at the mentors at that, before humming. He could keep talking about his findings there, but he has something to ask them all too.

  “Before I go over more of that, though other people are free to continue on, I have something to ask all of you, if any or all of you are able to answer us. How exactly did everyone in your season win? Or what way might have been possible? I feel like there’s gotta be something we’re missing there, so any details might help.”

A curious thing to ask, perhaps, but he raises an eyebrow at them all. Akira in particular was sure to remember all the legalities of this shit, but he’s not going to count out that someone else could know something.
