Tokyo Kakusareta Chikamono Himitsu (Imperial City Tokyo: Secret of a Hidden Underground Network) is a book that exposes the a network of secret train tunnels under Tokyo. It focuses on the history of subway construction and the inconsistencies between subway maps and reality. Japan Times has an interview with him:

Sitting on the Ginza subway from Suehirocho to Kanda, he says, you can see many mysterious tunnels leading off from the main track. "No such routes are shown on maps." Traveling from Kasumigaseki to Kokkai-gijidomae, there is a line off to the left that is not shown on any map. Nor is it indicated in subway construction records.

The interview covers how the author is now being blacklisted by the media for his involvement in questioning this phenomenon.

Just to screw with my google rating, I present you vintage cold medicine commercial with mpegs of Japanese school girls (hello pr0n surf search hits) sneezing.

That was summer before 11 years. When I saw this CM, I was not able to hide surprise and excitement. Many sneeze was seen by CM of cold medicine or the medicine of hayfever until now. However it was clear that they are FAKE sneeze. But it might hear this CM, I thought it was the REAL sneeze. I believe that the sneeze in this CM is a REAL even now. My most favorite sneeze is the 3rd girl. Her pre-sneeze face, sneezing face is very liked.

That English is better than my Japanese. I'm going to study Kanji now.
