The Freedom of Expression, radio version - Ep 53, Oct 2016 - Elaborate bentō boxes, Dubious assault of hotel worker by actor, Weekly mag Shūkan Bunshun
Kaoru starts by saying the final two dates of the DSS tour at Namba Hatch are coming up in the days following this broadcast. Joe says that he will attend the date on Oct 2nd (which was the next day). He says he will join the listeners by participating in the Instagram fashion campaign, and asks them to call him over for a photo if they spot him at the venue.  Kaoru says that they have already uploaded quite a few photos to the Instagram page, and almost all of them have more than 50 likes (the rules were that any photo which got more than 50 likes would get a sticker as a prize), so Kaoru will send stickers to all of them.
Joe then mentions to Kaoru that today is Oct 1st, which means the show has been running for a whole year. He offers his congratulations to Kaoru. It was a year ago this day, when Kaoru first spoke the words 'Good evening, this is Dir en grey's Kaoru' nervously into the mic. Joe asks him if he has any outstanding memories of the year. Kaoru says he can't think of any topic from the year, but he does remember transfering data from his old phone to his newly purchased iphone7 whilst recording the show once. He also says that at the beginning he wasn't sure if he would be able to talk properly about things, and he still isn't really. Joe assures him that he's doing just  fine. Kaoru continues to say that words are difficult. Unlike music, words have the ability to hurt people, and he has found it very difficult sometimes, to choose the right words to express the feelings in his head. Joe reassures him by reminding him that the show is titled The Freedom of Expression, and that the listeners will be aware and understanding of what that means.
Kaoru's first news story is about a mother who made her high-school age daughter 'annoying' bentō lunches every day, through which she communicated messages to her. The first lunch she made her was a typical cute bentō, almost too cute for a high-school kid. The days passed, and one day the daughter recieved a lunch with the word 'curse/呪' written with cheese and nori, complete with Sadako's fingers made with sausages. An image of Sadako and her hair had also been made using nori on top of the rice. Joe feels like this would be pretty shocking to open at lunchtime for the daughter. On days where the daughter had failed to return her empty lunchbox to her mother for washing, she would get a lunch the next day with the words 'Return your lunchbox to me!' written on it. She would get messages of encouragement in her lunch whenever she had a test, and after forgetting Mother's day once, she recieved a bentō with a picture of a carnation on the rice to remind her that she had forgotten. On her final day of school she recieved a huge bentō with far more food than she could eat, which was covered with an egg sheet and had the words 'Certificate of Commendation' written on it, followed by the words, 'You've eaten up these annoyong bentōs for three years. This is to honor that endurance'. Kaoru and Joe both think this really shows the mother's love to make such elaborate lunches every day for her daughter. The mother made a comment on her blog that it was tough making them, but she just imagined her daughter's reaction each time, and that motivated her.
Joe asks Kaoru if he took bentō lunches to school when he was that age. Kaoru says he did, but they were totally ordinary ones.
Dobashi joins them next, and says he is completely resettled back in Japan after being in Rio for the Olympics, with Hiranabe telling him go go all over the place to pick up various showbiz news. It turns out he hasn't been transferred to the sports department after all, although he wouldn't have minded it, Tokyo Sports being the exciting newspaper all round that it is.
Dobashi's news this week is about actor Takahata Yūta, who was in trouble for sexually assaulting a hotel worker at a hotel he was staying at in Maebashi, Gunma prefecture. After his arrest, an out of court settlement had been reached between him and the alleged victim, and the case had been dropped. Dobashi and Hiranabe actually went to Maebashi to do a report on this. Joe suggests that this might be the first time Tokyo Sports have ever written a serious report. Dobashi commends the weekly magazine Shūkan Bunshun, saying that everything they put out in their report on the incident is fact. However, Dobashi also says he did a lot of asking around and heard a lot of backstreet info about this case, most of which he can't repeat. If he were to say anything, it would be that the man who first reported the incident to authorities was an aquaintance of the victim's, and he is apparently someone with quite dodgy connections. This is the first interesting point about this case.
The second point is that Takahata's arrest took place extremely quickly after the alleged attack took place. The attack was said to have happened at 1:40am, but police arrived at the scene at 4am . In this time, the victim had told her male aquaintance about what had happened, and the police were informed. It seems almost pre-arranged, it happened so quickly. Its like the police knew something in advance....at least thats how Dobashi sees it. It appears that there might be a lot about this case that lurks in darker zones.
Joe asks Dobashi how Tokyo Sports views the magazine Shūkan Bunshun's reporting strength. Dobashi says he thinks it is really good. Whenever they report on a public scandal about someone, they will apparently write a letter to the individual concerned and post it to their house, asking for comments and explaining their reasons for wanting to write a report on the issue. They will also even put their business card through the letter box of the house. Dobashi is pretty impressed by this.
To finish, Kaoru plugs his tours, and says that one of the staff members have also said they want to join Joe in the Instagram fashion campaign. Kaoru tells listeners to look out for Dir's staff as well as Joe, to get photos together at the venues.

Disneys take on Starwars
Star Wars the Last Jedi 
Tanner Martin
Having opinions on anything from art to politics will result in you being accused of ignorance, racism and  being lackadaisical. These accusations will intensify as you talk about parts of a person's life they hold dear to  the heart. We are going to be going over a subject that is at the center of many peoples nerdy hearts. Star Wars. We aren't going to be talking about just anything Star Wars, We are going to be talking about the most controversial Star Wars movie of all time, The Last Jedi.
In this paper we are going to discuss why The Last Jedi could and should have been better. We are going to specifically lay out the problems with the Last Jedi and we are going to list what starwars fans were expecting and what they deserve from a good star wars movie.
So,for the those of you who don't know, Star wars the Last Jedi is the most recent star wars movie of the new trilogy to come out. It came out and was met with a super mixed reactions. It's one of those rare types of blockbuster movies that  got super positive reviews from the critics and negative reviews from the fans.
The movie was very different from any other star wars movie, which felt like a major betrayal to the Original Fans. The average movie watcher loved it though. The critiques that  cut the deepest,were that this movie was largely politicized and that it sacrifices story, plot and entertainment for the sake of supporting  feminism and diversity.    These critics, included rubbing out old characters that fans loved like Luke Skywalked, Admiral Ackbar and
This led to many critics and people  who were just fans of that movie to fire back and accuse Original Star Wars fans of racism and sexism. This also led to many  critics invalidating the claims that the movie was bad because of the supposed racism and sexism
To be fair there were some instances of racism that caused a few of the actors and actresses to close there social media pages, however that was used as an excuse to not answer any of the claims listed by the starwars fandom.
The reason these claims of racism came about
Since the movie has come out there has been a fair number of Star wars fans that have come up with different twist and even one that came out with a video with plots more amusing and more starwarsy then this one. One is from a popular youtube channel called “How it Should Have Ended”. How it Should Have ended is a satirical channel, that calls out movies for weird or lame endings or plot holes and then fills those plot holes with what they think belongs in the hole.
The satirical commentary released for the Last Jedi is was recieved with aclaim with many fans. Some of the comments left on in the comments section of the yout tube video include” You fixed the movie! Yeah!!!!” and “Can we drop the film and make this cannon??”. This filled not only the plotholes, misdirections fromt he director and poor story telling right up. It also filled the hole left in fans  hearts from a garbage movie.
The  critics and producers of star wars have largely ignored these products. For them they see fans complaining.  Rians Johnsons to fans saying there willing to remake the movie was” Please Please Please Please Please Please Please PLease….”. They don’t take the ideas seriously, which makes sense, but it would be nice if they acknowledged it at all in an adult way.
The most promising result from fans complaints has been that Rian Johnson has been removed from the project of this trilogy and that J.J Abrams has been brought back to  finish it off.
The most important of these claims is the one of making star wars a message about equality rather than a non-political story that all people could enjoy together. Garrett Phillip Lewis, is one of those fans that wanted to go to the theatre to enjoy a good star wars flick. His review is one of the most depressing youtube videos I have  ever seen. It's like a  live stream of a child being told  that there is not Santa Clause, That the only the only thing in the North Pole is a vast desolate landscape of dead dreams and depression.
He is so depressed with what the film did with his Childhood Hero. Luke Skywalker. He goes from the hero of the resistance and someone who was responsible for ushering in a new era of peace and a new era of the ultimate peace keepers, The Jedi. Instead Luke not only makes mistakes, be he fails to rectify those mistakes which , causes his nephew to become disillusioned with The Jedi and his family. The worst crime Luke Skywalker commits however , is that he runs away. Does Batman ever let the Joker off scott free?Does Superman every runaway away from Lex luthor? Did God not cast Lucifer out of Heaven?
Luke Skywalker would NEVER runaway. Especially from the darkside and especially from a darkside that he created.  Garrett phillips, perfectly points this out. It makes the DC mistake, where they made batman a killer who branded people and shot people with his car guns. Batman doesn't kill people and Luke Skywalker never runs from a fight.
In my opinion , destroying Luke Skywalker's character was the movies most grievous sin, but it wasn't the only one.  For whatever reason,  the movie also decides that in order to let the world know that Disney supports equal rights  they had to revolve the movie around that.  The movie sacrificed realism in order to produce equality
I know its a Scifi movie, but realism in a movie to me, is how an individual would realistically act in a situation. It helps people become immersed into a movie. This movie lacked that because of the lack of realism and consistency
In the end it all comes down to this. Don’t hate all fans who didn't like this movie  because a minority are bigoted. Instead focus on what the bigots and none bigoted fans came together to say. Taking Star Wars and turning it on its head  to provide a story that only succeeds in making money  because it has star wars attached to it is bad.
