If you spot a man with scissors on a train, he may not be dangerous but he may be seeking out an unusual method for satisfying his fetish. Especially if he is Masamitsu Ando. Chiba police arrested Ando last Thursday for cutting the skirt of a junior high school student the previous day. The schoolgirl was on a JR train very early in the morning from from Tateyama to Chiba when the 41-year-old company employee used scissors to cut her skirt when she was sleeping in the seat next to him. Young girls should know better than to dozen on trains in Japan, given the danger of being ...

Saitama might well have a reputation as a boring suburb of Tokyo but some places aren't as dull as they sound. Japan might also be a nation with 25% older population but the seniors can't be accused of being anything but active. One man was recently arrested for being a little too vigorous, in fact. 64-year-old Yoshio Shimazaki of Utsunomiya in Tochigi had some urges and knew where to do go to sort it out. He went to Saitama. In November 2011 at a love hotel in Kawaguchi City he gave a female high school student ¥20,000 and then had her perform bondage play with him. At the time the ...

Naoki Nakatani. An ordinary 30-year-old guy from Ibogawacho in Hyogo prefecture. Or is he? Our friend Naoki here has been been selling some clothes via online auctions. Nothing unusual in that. Except that he has been selling raincoats. A lot of them. And they have the names of girls' high schools written on them, as one person who bought a raincoat from Nakatani found out. Correctly assuming it was stolen, the customer contacted police, who then began to investigate. Over the last six years, he had apparently visited local supermarket bicycle parking areas dozens of times and ...

The discovery of one picture on the Internet has led to speculation that now Japanese schools are brimming with boys and girls who kiss each other for fun. Well, that of course sounds like a perfectly ordinary school activity. But the "school rule" is that you can only kiss members of the same sex. The picture, which seems to be the sole source of the discussion, apparently summarizes the rules and the experiences of some kids with "kiss friends" -- but where it came from is anyone's guess. Is it from a magazine? Personally we think this is total crap, and the surprised or ...

A female high school student (15) was in the part that connects two train carriages on a train in Wakayama prefecture hen a company employee from south Osaka groped her breasts.

It's shaking!" he said as he grabbed her. No doubt he thought that her fear of the shaking carriage corridor would distract her from the hands now on her ...
