Yup, that would be an oni-chan. I think perhaps you were thinking of an onii-chan. (No good claiming the - is for a long vowel 'cuz you had onee-chan in the same post :P )

not really, she ain't my cousin. but you know what, WAYYYY back in the day, just as long as it's not first cousins, everything was cool. And that was in a lot of different cultures.

I'm well aware of that. But I still find it utterly disgusting. Bleah.

they are still being discriminated and today and prolly be a while before okinawa is correctly 'assemilated' into the JPN population. The ainu culture sort of resemble the one with the native americans fron the northwest. now i don't know as much about the ainus, but i DO know a fair amount of knowledge about the uchinachus. tokyo rarely helps okinawa, which BY FAR has the highest unemployment in JPN. Things like american bases in JAPAN also sets of political brushfires there as well. After WW2 after JPN surrendered, one of the points the US made was that there would be X amount of space alotted for the occupation of the US forces. All tokyo said was basically: "sure, no prob. just make sure that 80% of the sapce that you are asking for is built in okinawa."

People in okinawa: WTF? Altho land area is very limited in JPN, why do we have to feel the brunt of the occupation here in tiny okinawa?

People here are still very bitter the whole base thing. they aren't upset at the americans in general when they say "yankees go home". they are more upset with tokyo if anything. since americans take up SO much land space in okinawa, the uchinanchu's just want the land back so they can build houses of their own.

Just googled her. I think that Imai chick is cuter though. Or maybe I'm just getting the bad pics of her. But the other two, bleah.

nemoto? uehara is wayyyy cuter than her. it's all about ƒEƒ`ƒiƒ“ƒ`ƒ…Ababy!!! I also think she is the hottest one out of the 4. the others are cute as well, but uehara is the one with the major cosmetics deals. Imai and shimabukuro definitly has better pipes than her tho.

Hmmmm "better pipes" makes me wonder how they sound when getting tapped.... :beaten: :hehe:

i don't think it would matter b/c it's not like they are doing arias from opera when that happens. (unless i'm doing it wrong, LOL!)

Maybe you are doing something wrong. :hehe: :hehe: *LOL* J/K!

Nah, I was just playing. :beaten: :beaten:

Everyone always ignores Arakaki Hitoe of Speed :mecry: I like them all, but damn....Hitoe gets dissed :crazy: Yeah, she was the worst singer of them all, but they always put her in the back while she was the better dancer, LOL. I liked her cuz she was the unique one. Most people either don't like her or go "Um...who's that?" >__<;; She's a little too "tryin' to be ghetto" now though :beaten: But I don't think she's ugly though...

Credits to Peachchik...I'll remove these in a couple days cuz like, I don't like hotlinking people :rolleyes:

certainly not heinous, it's just that i think when you compare her to the 3, she is the "lowest on the totem pole". Last i heard she was trying to break into the visual arts industry by having her own works exhibited in shows.

Sorry, but she can't sing OR draw....I just like her dancing and think she's unique looking (when ghetto'ed up or not). I wish I had her pout though. :beaten: When I was in Japan, her drawings were on Dr. Pepper cans.
