With the Christmas season here, management asks for sensitivity regarding one specific topic.
idol fans
The historical reason this shrine in the heart of the city is becoming a must-visit for idol fans.
Though maybe that shouldn’t have been such a surprise with this particular underground idol unit.
Policy also allows for bereavement leave when idols retire, leaving office early for surprise concerts.
10,000 characters, written by hand, is a few thousand too many, talent agency says.
”Don’t watch this if you don’t want to have your dreams shattered,” warns one fan, but others have a very different response.
You can never please die-hard fans of an anime when it comes to making a live-action adaptation.
The character merchandise was made into what looks like enormous samurai armor, but event officials weren’t impressed.
After fans continued to ignore requests regarding what types of presents are appropriate, group institutes blanket ban.
Tokyo police say teen stole over 100 boxes of razors, and not so that he’d be freshly shaven for his beloved idol singers.
