      • First off, isn’t the part about, “the AKS side asking that the two male fans be called to testify” actually a misprint for what should be, “a request for the two male fans of the defense to undergo an interrogation by the litigating parties”?
      • Dealing with the proposal of the Niigata local courthouse for a peaceful settlement, both parties reportedly said they will, “contemplate about it”, leaving for further considerations on it. What are they possibly contemplating about, so late into the game?
      • Thinking about it with common sense, to request only reparations for 30 million yen worth of damages, when it’s 100 million yen worth of damages that were caused, is not normal at all.
      • I can’t help wondering if the plaintiff was already aware since the very beginning that, lacking cooperation from Miss Yamaguchi, their plan to validate their case would be next-to-impossible.
      • Then, there’s also the fact that, while already understanding there’s a limit to what you can do about finding out the truth, in the way that the system itself works, and all the difficulties in terms of building their own case, they still initiated a lawsuit saying, “We want to proceed ahead toward discovering the truth”.
      • Even so, with even the interrogation of the two defendants by the litigating parties still unfinished, what are they even contemplating about at this point?
      • If it’s true that their intent in initiating the litigation was not for money-related issues, but to clarify the truth, then shouldn’t it be a pretty standard procedure to turn down altogether the proposal of the courthouse for a settlement, without even beginning to contemplate it, and instead request the proceedings advance directly towards the interrogation and verdict stages?
  • (Stocks) KeyHolder announces forced exercise of approximately 5.5B yen of stock options by the Akimoto Yasushi siblings and Yoshinari Natsuko.
  • Takken Taro video: “NGT — City of Niigata “information disclosure” — Information on NGT Mail and the start of theater performances — Part 10″

Note: I try to repeat the Japanese thread as closely as possible here. Where I do make some editorial additions I’ll put them in [ ], though I do occasionally soften the posters’ tone.

Why is this here? My original announcement
