As you know, we had a general election on 30 Aug. here in Japan.
The result was just a nightmare!
I was watching the prompt report of election returns on TV till midnight and the ruling party "Liberal Democratic Party" sustained a crushing defeat.
I don't want to believe it, but the opposition party "Democratic Party of Japan" won a landslide and 308 seats of the Lower House(there are 480 seats in the Lower House of Japan).

I don't think electors really understood the policies of the two parties but just dreamt of an easy "change" from a happy-go-lucky way of thinking.

Possibly, we are facing a crisis that may lead to the collapse of economy, security and identity of Japan.
I'll keep watching what's going to happen.
Anyway, it was a historic election of a power change that had not happened in Japan for 53 years.

Best wishes,

Wrlz

and in this kanji

There was a remarkable incident yesterday.Unlike this weblog in English, my Blog in Japanese is updated almost everyday and that blog stood first of so-called "blog ranking". I'm often writing reviews on Manga for this Japanese blog.This image shows the placing of each blog which participates in the category of "review on manga"(1279blogs in this category) and as you can see, my blo Unlike this weblog in English, my Blog in Japanese is updated almost everyday and that blog stood first of so-called "blog ranking". I'm often writing reviews on Manga for this Japanese blog.

This image shows the placing of each blog which participates in the category of "review on manga"(1279blogs in this category) and as you can see, my blog has gained 200 IN points/456 OUT points in the past week.

This image shows the transition in the past week.

"IN points" of the week decides the ranking. If someone who felt my blog is interesting clicks the banner at the tail of any entries,

it is reflected in the total weekly IN points. I'm distributing 80% of the total IN points to "review on manga", 10% to "philately" and 10% to "tobacco" as for my Japanese blog.

However, the fine weather won't hold long. My blog which was at the top of the ranking yesterday has already made a close second in the race. I think I need to write a new entry for today. Maybe what's important is "Continuation" .

What is the reason I don't update this English blog more often? -because I'm lazy.
