Today Medama Sensei aka. "Miki Dezaki" released a follow up video to his controversial "Racism in Japan" clip of his classroom lesson about Japanese discrimination. After that class, his students were enlightened, there were no complaints from anyone and the vice principal of his school even said that he wished more students could have attended Dezaki's lesson. “The reaction was so positive,” he said. "These kids have heard the stories of their parents being discriminated against by the mainland Japanese. They know this stuff. But the funny thing is that they weren’t making the connection that that was discrimination.”But when he uploaded that lesson as a video to Youtube last week, it turned more than a few heads and generated a very negative backlash from some right-wing, racist Japanese netizens known as the "netouyu" or "nettouyoku" (ネット右翼) who even sent him death threats:
“I recently made a video about Racism in Japan, and am currently getting bombarded with some pretty harsh, irrational comments from Japanese people who think I am purposefully attacking Japan,” [snip] "If I should have anticipated something, I should have anticipated the netouyu,” said Dezaki.Here is Dezaki's original "Racism in Japan" video: And here is today's release "Racism in Japan Part 2": The netouyu created quite a stir by hacking into Dezaki's social networks and then by contacting his previous employers, local politicians and Okinawa’s board of education and complained about Dezaki's video through numerous telephone calls. This reaction also earned him a write up featured in the Washington Post. Dezaki is an American English teacher in Okinawa who previously gained some notoriety with his other videos entitled “What Americans think of Japan”, "Sh*t Japanese Girls Say", "Hitchhiking Okinawa" and "Being Gay in Japan". Be sure to see more of Mike Dezaki's interesting videos here. Related: Is Japan a Racist Country? Is China A Racist Country? WTF KFC Japan Sells Chicken w/ Watermelon?

Via Daily Mail February 7, 2013 A horrifying story with a happy ending took place when twenty year old art student Xiao Li was posing for 'artistic pictures' with photographer friend Xiao Qing in Shaodong County, Hunan province, southern China. When Li attempted to strike a pose near on oncoming train, she slipped and fell in front of it and was launched backwards when the train hit her left shoulder. The below photo is the moment just after impact:
The driver immediately stopped the train, but, miraculously, Li escaped with just a bruised shoulder. "I felt this sudden bump and I was flying sideways. The train stopped and the driver thought he must have killed me," said Li. Continued... See also: Ascending Mt Hua in China = NOPE!

No this is not a joke. This hilarious "Only In Japan" story is true according to Super Official News: Bill Murray Catches Bank Robber In Tokyo, Accidentally. January 28, 2013 By Jimmy Rustling Tokyo, Japan – A bank robber was apprehended today in Tokyo after stopping to talk with none other than Bill Murray. “The man robbed the Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi, ran out, saw Bill Murray walking on the street and stopped to talk to him. That’s when authorities were able to apprehend him,” Tokyo Police Chief Yakuza Mori told reporters. Bill Murray who is in Tokyo promoting a new movie told reporters about the incident. “I saw this man in the street running towards me with a bag in his hand. Then he suddenly stopped when he saw me. He asked me if I was Bob Harris, the character I played in Lost in Translation. I told him, ‘sure, why not’. Then he started telling me how much he loved me and how great he thought I was. “I was polite, I told him that was very nice of him to say. Then kind of out of nowhere, police showed up and tackled the man,” Murray said.With a police chief named Yakuza Mori - you'd better believe it!
