BREAKING: Japan sends delegation to Beijing after Takaichi's Taiwan comment angers China 😳
After months of tourism cancellations, seafood bans, and ambassador summons — can a small group of lawmakers fix Japan-China ties?

What do YOU think — should Japan retract or stand firm? 👇

Japanese soba chain Yudetaro says 30% of its staff are now foreign workers.

CEO: "Foreigners are serious and hardworking. Japanese people just don't want to work on-site anymore."

Hiroyuki: "If you keep importing cheap labor, Japanese salaries will NEVER go up."
Who's right?

JUST IN: Osaka 2009 arsonist executed after 17 years.

5 people killed. 10 injured. He set a pachinko parlor on fire and walked away.
Yesterday morning, justice was served at Osaka Detention House.

This is Japan's first ex*****on since the "Twitter Killer" in 2025.

The girl they told to "go back to America" is now deciding who gets to stay in Japan.

Kimi Onoda was born in Chicago, moved to Okayama at age 1, and was beaten and bullied as a hafu kid in rural Japan.

Today, she is Japan's Minister for Foreign Residents.

As Japan's population fell by 470,000 and its foreign population grew to 3.8 million, she is leading the debate on clear rules and real integration.

From outsider to gatekeeper. Full circle.

🚨 JAPAN LANGUAGE SCHOOL RAIDED

Immigration found 5 UNQUALIFIED teachers teaching classes at a Japanese language school.

The school was under inspection for not checking student jobs. Now it faces improvement order and could lose its license to accept foreign students.

From 876 schools → only 64 have passed the new MEXT certification. This is not an isolated case, it's a nationwide clean-up.

Are students being protected, or is Japan closing its doors?

JAPAN JUST SAID: IF YOU LIVE HERE, LEARN JAPANESE! 🇯🇵

Japan's government held its FIRST meeting to create a mandatory Japanese language + life rules program for ALL foreign residents.
Trial starts in 2028.

And yes — it could affect your VISA and PERMANENT RESIDENCY in the future.
Good decision or too strict? 👇
Do you think foreigners should HAVE TO learn Japanese?

Comment YES or NO.

Chinese media: “Foreigners have stopped going to Japan” 🇨🇳

Shibuya Crossing at 6pm last night: 👀

Reality check: Japan welcomed 21.1 MILLION foreigners in first half of 2026 — only 2% down from last year. Chinese tourists are down 56.4% (2.06M vs 4.7M) because of Beijing's travel warning, but Korea, Taiwan and US are all UP and breaking records.

So not “foreigners stopped.” Just... different foreigners? 😅

I live in Shibuya-ku and I can confirm — Kyoto is still packed.
