The Japanese are particularly obsessed with melons and are known for the extreme prices they are willing to pay for the highest quality examples of food items that they are obsessed with (i.e., Kobe beef, tunas).

Isn’t it illegal to use black and watermelon in the same sentence?

Where these are grown, Japan is giving away free land if you move and build a house there.

I suspect this is for Japanese only, but they are getting desperate, everyone is old in Japan.

They say environmentalists are watermelons-green on the outside, red to the core. This one must be an Obamamelon. You know the rest...
