    NOTIFICATION: On paper, I think this might be the single most action packed Abroad in Japan episode ever made. We certainly ended Journey Across Japan with a thud. Literally - goodbye ear. It's now healed fortunately but it took 6 long weeks of hell to get there. Still it was a blast at sea and a lot of fun watching Ryotaro and Natsuki battle it out once and for all! I hope you enjoyed the series guys!

Exterminating The Yakusa presence and their activities in the country would be considerably profitable for the Hells Angels, the Comanchero motorcycle club and the Aussie Cartel. The goal is to initiate their expansion over the Yakusa in Australia and to push it as far as in Japan. According to their plans, they are and will be supported by the Sinaloa Cartel for a part of the gains obtained and it would be done by the end of 2023. They told their mens to prioritize the capture, mostly for torture and interrogation before killing and for selling but to kill right away if they can not capture. This is what members having close ties with Hells Angels chapter leaders are talking about. Some members of the Hells Angels and of the Sinaloa Cartel had already start moving to Australia. The mens had been told to get the job done by any means, even by mass killing if needed.

      The Hells Angels, the Comanchero motorcycle club and the Aussie Cartel heads are having talks while you are reading this about their growth in Australia and in Asia. Exterminating The Yakusa presence and their activities in the country would be considerably profitable for the Hells Angels, the Comanchero motorcycle club and the Aussie Cartel. The goal is to initiate their expansion over the Yakusa in Australia and to push it as far as in Japan. According to their plans, they are and will be supported by the Sinaloa Cartel for a part of the gains obtained and it would be done by the end of 2023. They told their mens to prioritize the capture, mostly for torture and interrogation before killing and for selling but to kill right away if they can not capture. This is what members having close ties with Hells Angels chapter leaders are talking about. Some members of the Hells Angels and of the Sinaloa Cartel had already start moving to Australia. The mens had been told to get the job done by any means, even by mass killing if needed. If you are directly involved let your comrades know so you can be prepared for what is happening before it is too late to prevent the bloodbath and your fall!

      Japan was also closed off from outside travelers. I think Joey also said that they went in April, which for Japan is the ending/beginning of their fiscal year (and achool year...hence the cherry blossoms in a lot of school-related anime at the start of the year), so people might not have been able to get time off if work was chaotic.

    I went parasailing by myself when I weighed 58kg. The wind kept me in the sky. The boat came back into shore where i was told to put all my weight on the left side. As I slowly descended I lost the wind behind a building and fell straight down to earth about 2 stories, smashing the air from my lungs. Winding me in the process. Fantastic experience 10/10 would get winded again.
