Here is an YouTube video of the Japanese news report. Watch closely between 1:20 to 1:34; an anime has appeared. Many Japanese anime fans have already noticed this guy and the flier in his hand. Cool

A rather overdramatic turn of events.

Nothing much to upset the delicate balance of the world.

That's what's going to happen.

Man, she was one of the first stars I got interested in. I'll never understand why people go to drugs, ever. It's just effing stupid. No excuses, ever.

Couldn't they be specific about what drug it was. "Illegal stimulants." Could be strong coffee for all I can tell.

Shame that she had to turn to drugs. Now she's wrecked her son's life as well. Wonder why she turned herself in after all this time?

(Meth)amphetamines and cocaine are two of the more illegal stimulants you're probably familiar with. Also nicotine, but I'm betting that wasn't it.

might as well have. she's ruined

EDIT

ok is it just me, or does this not add up:

Quote:
warrant for Sakai's arrest on Friday after they reportedly found stimulants and a straw used to inhale the drugs at her residence. Police investigators allege that Sakai was a regular user after saying that they discovered traces of Sakai's DNA in the saliva on the straw.


i don't see how this implicates her. what's to say it wasn't just an oridinary drinking straw that her boyfriend was using to do drugs?

she looks young for 38 O_O

Oh yeah, sad about the drugs thing but glad she didn't commit suicide; especially considering she has a son.
