Didn't notice it myself, but now that you mention it......

And for people who don't check the spoiler threads:

The burst of text at around 15:41 of this week's episode told us a bit about some of the other selecaos.

Details at the Japanese fan wiki http://www36.atwiki.jp/higashino_eden/pages/26.html

#3 - seems decent but doesn't seem to understand the scope of this game. Ordering up tomato salad for jobless+homeless temp workers is good, I guess, but this selecao doesn't seem to be fixing Japan; with tiny requests like "Juiz, please have someone pick up the garbage in this park" they're just dealing with what's right in front of them.

#6 might be just as unambitious, but at least they're having a bit of fun, with "Juiz, karaoke reservations for 60 please".

#7 is interested in corporate misbehaviour, specifically in food adulteration scandals. But they still have 9.1bn yen left on their phone. They should be thinking that when the game ends not only will they be killed, they'll leave most of their money unspent. A waste.

#8 is angry at the bad performance of Japan's national soccer team. Heh. It seems to be really expensive to diagnose and fix though. I think #9 got a bargain in this episode when it only cost him 56 million yen to turn the Carp into a championship team.

What do ppl make of this? Interesting info, to say the least...

I bet number 3 is a woman. and number 8 is a man.

His bold, positive, confident, relaxed attitude is also his great strength. The way he marched right into Pantsu's house. The way he put his feet on the chair at the Eden office. The amount of stuff he was willing to tell them. The way he went straight after Oosugi when he thought he had been kidnapped. His apparent past willingness to protect the NEETs from the Selecao who want to off them. Even his smooth acceptance of finding himself naked in front of the White House, and then his bold sweeping up of Saki on his way back to Japan.

Sure he's reckless, but that's how he gets things done. Quite a breath of fresh air for Saki, after being with people like Oosugi and the other club members. This guy is a warrior. But that also means death and injury follow him about. As usual, his strength is his weakness.

I was looking for a compendium of Juiz Call answers in the wiki, but only found a nice section on the geography of the show, with a map, as well as a full list of every Selecao's phone records. (all in Japanese)

I blogged the incidental spending histories from ep 9. And I'm not sick so I probably didn't fuck up as horribly.

You've done such excellent (AND supernaturally fast as well) work on this series, I think we should forgive you. And dealing with all that Desire crap. Thank you for all your hard work on our behalf.

Yeah, nice job.

They specifically mentioned Tomahawks right? More techno-babble then... the only warhead that could make a crater the size of the one we've seen that would fit on a Tomahawk would be a tactical nuke. There's no way Japan would use nukes anytime soon, and if they were then Careless Monday would have been a much bigger deal than it seems it was.

im not sure I understand what you are saying. It has to be a nuke because of what size it is, but it cant be a nuke because it would be bigger than it is?

are you talking about the first careless monday or the one that takes place in the show?

in any case if it was a nuke, that would be a whole different story due to radiation.

Well those craters are indeed too big to be explained with a missile. The only thing that could create such a crater is the GBU-43

However the shockwave released by such an explostion would cover a way bigger radius. In Eden of the East we see those Huge craters but the houses around them seem perfectly fine, and that is not possible.

EDIT: Well actually they are not exactly fine, but less than what they should be, and the damge is too limited
