Do we have any Japanese speaking FReepers would have weighed in on the writing? Photoshop is a very slick too, but there is ALWAYS tell tale signs when attempting to “trick” people. If these photos were shopped it would be out by now. Look at PallyWood, Hamas, CNN, Reuters that get all of their fauxtography called out. Even the best get caught and I personally doubt these photos are shopped. RC maybe, staged maybe, Photoshopped? NO. IMO.
I believe the person that posted regarding the symbols/characters on the bottom of the blade-like protrusion, said that they were Japanese characters.
Still think this thing isn’t real. I’ve seen some over the years, and while vastly different, this one doesn’t pass for me.
I saw my first UFO in Norfolk, VA in 1961. It was late afternoon. I was playing on the jungle jim when I noticed 5 small black craft just above the tree tops. They were triangular with no lights and made no sound. They looked like they could hold only one small person. My mother said that she believed me when I ran home and told her.
