Japablum Week in Review: Headlines



It's Friday and that can only mean one thing: edamame enchildadas for lunch! Also, it's time to take a look at the most riveting headlines of the week from the always reliably insane Japanese news:

BOYFRIEND HELD IN DEATH OF WOMAN WHOSE BODY WAS DROPPED OFF AT HYOGO HOSPITAL

MOTHER APPEALS 14-YEAR SENTENCE FOR KILLING 4-YEAR-OLD SON WHO DISTURBED HER DATE

POSITIVE TREND IN TRAFFIC SAFETY

GANG BOSS SHOT IN KUMAMOTO IN APPARENT REPRISAL OF FUKUOKA SHOOTING

79-YEAR-OLD MAN FOUND STRANGLED IN YAMAGUCHI; MISSING GRANDSON SUSPECTED

FAKE BRAND SEIZURES HIT NEW HALF-YEAR HIGH

NEW EFFORT TO BOOST TOURISM

Five free edamame beans to the first person to guess which one is fake. (Hint: None of them are fake.)

Be careful in traffic!
