The Roving Ronin Report

HALLOWEEN IN ROPPONGI, TOKYO Some random scenes of Halloween hijinks in Tokyo's little den of sin, Roppongi. You get all types in Roppongi - sexy, drunk, wasted, scurvy, lewd, pervy, etc... and Halloween brings out some of the most "interesting" people to say the least. And of course the best thing is Japanese girls running around in skimpy Halloween outfits the best argument for keeping Halloween firmly in Japan. I went around and polled people about Halloween in Japan. I also saw quite a scuffle between some Japanese guys and one photographer with the cops. All in all a most interesting night! The Sexy Arm of the Law Out on Patro l Sakamoto Ryoma fought for the Emperor and a new Japan while the Na'vi fought for a CGI plane t Elvis samurai? Naughty Nun Sister Sin takes a sip Ooofff! right in the beer gut! Happy Halloween, me hearties!!!

Tokyo Metropolis Halloween Glitterball 2010 Metropolis is a free weekly magazine in Tokyo. They put on a huge party twice a year known as Glitterball. Around Halloween they do a costume contest and some kind of show. This year it was a tribute to Michael Jackson's Thriller with a Michael Jackson impersonator.

Despite low expectations, Japan beat Cameroon June 14th 1-0. Many expected Japan to lose because they were lower in rank than Cameroon and hadn't done so hot in the pre-Cup games. I watched the game at a bar in Tokyo and later walked about and over to a Hub Pub and talked to Japanese and foreigners alike about the game. I forgot my video camera at home so I was forced to rely on the crappy video function of my small digital photo camera so the audio and video are bit rougher than usual.
