Uh... it's like, an old house. It was already recreated. Blowing up a recreation is extrodinarily pointless. Because, *gasp* they can recreate it again.

This man should be charged with first degree idiocy.

That incident aside... they have made the creator's home into a museum?! What's so special about some average Japanese apartment like thousands of other Japanese have as well? xD

What's so special about a boring TV show? That's my question.

It's a funny boring TV show, duh. Seinfeld doesn't have a plot or anything and look how many devoted fans it has!

and once again, Japan proves to be the spawning pool for some of the weirdest people on earth...

1) a bunch of weirdos who turned a manga drawer's house into a museum...

and

2) a single weirdo who's so attention starved that he thought it'd be fun to cause an uproar from pretending to blow up said museum...


i can't wait to hear about someone threatening to fire bomb the next door neighbours house of the dog who used to belong to the animation assistant to the second cousin of the guy who drew Akira or something...

that's probably a museum too...

You gotta admit though. That stunt caught everyones attention. Who ever this guy is just had his 15 minutes of fame. That idiot. He knew he could never get away with it.

I would be pissed if someone blew it up though. I love that show!

Alright, you have your fifteen minutes of fame, but now he'll probably be serving time in jail. I actually like Lucky Star, its a fun and enjoyable show.

Although it has moe (which normally I will never watch), its done in such a way that is more hilarious than creepy/weird.

This so reminds of something from Family Guy:

Cop: Are you really going to blow the the building?

Bomber (looks down): No... I just wanted attention.

...Not to mention a bus tour of NYC to the locations that were the basis for the ones in the series run by the man who was the inspiration for Kramer...

Stupidity is not a crime, no. For Yōsuke Ida was arrested for "allegedly sending a letter threatening to blow up the former home of Lucky Star manga creator Kagami Yoshimizu." Meaning he "did something" that's wrong, not because he's so stupid, that he didn't know what he had done was actually wrong. In fact, our justice system is constructed so that it will find those who are mentally ill not guilty in the court of law. Remember that.
