Police were called to a restaurant in a Tokyo skyscraper Sunday after a mass brawl broke out among a group of some 100 customers who had booked out the venue.
Most of the people had left when officers arrived at the modern French restaurant on the 58th floor of the landmark Sunshine 60 tower in the Ikebukuro district, with just a man who had suffered a minor head injury and some others still there, the police said.
No arrests have been made but investigations continue, they said, adding the scene was littered with broken beer bottles and glasses.
A restaurant clerk made an emergency call around 6:30 p.m. after the group started eating and drinking around 6:00 p.m. and suddenly got into a fight, they said. There were no other customers other than members of the group.
“You got sushi in my sashimi!”
“You got sashimi in mu sushi!”
And then the fight was on!
(In addition to the ‘Sapporo’ versus ‘Kirin’ battle!)
A visiting group of Amish must be in Japan.
In a Japanese restaurant with the husband of my tea ceremony teacher, maybe 15 years ago:
Waitress: And your drink?
Me: Kirin Ichiban onegaishimasu.
Sensei's husband: Gaijin. All gaijin order Kirin.
Having done business for 30 years in Japan, all I can say is this is so non Japanese to what I recall.
At least it didn’t happen at the aquarium.
The 5 6 7 8s.
They could play their instruments too.
Were there NBA teams there having dinner?
From a message board . . . Make of it what you will.
“It’s a gang group calling themselves “Chinese Dragon.” They were holding a party for one(s?) just released from prison.
Their background and cultural heritage are a bit complicated. The group members are Japanese nationals, the second or third generations of Japanese war orphans who were abandoned and raised in China at the time of war end. Those orphans as well as their kids were born and growing up in China, some may be “half” with Chinese and Japanese parents, and accompanied their Japanese parents going “home” to Japan. Many are unable to speak Japanese.
Though the former war orphans’ (mal-) adaptation had already been addressed, the acculturation issues for their offspring are rather new and overlooked.”
Is Japan enjoying the diversity from Africans the rest of the world is enjoying. Seems odd videos are not posted.
“The brawl that took place on the evening of the 16th at a restaurant on the 58th floor of the high-rise building “Sunshine 60” in Ikebukuro, Tokyo, was for the “celebration of release from prison” by members of the quasi-criminal group “Chinese Dragon”. Interviews with investigative officials revealed what happened at the place where they gathered.”

People who annoy Japanese.
Somebody must have been dislespected
Oh no, there goes Tokyo
Go go Godzilla, yeah
History shows again and again
How nature points out the folly of men
It all started when one guy said to another, “NANNI SHTONEN OMAI WA? Very roughly “What the hell are you doing”?
As I thought, written earlier . “ Japanese Yakuza I’m sure . “
The 5 6 7 8s.
Absolutely!
Right after Kill Bill came out I looked up the 5.6.7.8.s because I was into surf guitar music. And they had their hit "Woo Hoo" that was featured in a Vonage commercial.
That's a plausible explanation, and it would also explain why the information was not in the Kyodo story, since it would be admitting what we all know, that to a Japanese, one is either 100% Japanese and non-burakumin, or an outsider.
