The only reason I took this story was for that headline.

Anyway, here are a pair of Japanese students doing a little dance to a tune from Xbox 360-bound erotic game TimeLeap. The video has caused quite a stir in its homeland since the girls are dancing and (and incidentally exposing their underthings) in front of the Hiroshima Peace Memorial, a landmark commemorating the loss of thousands of lives. For some strange reason, people have taken offense to it. 

The girls, hailing from Nagasaki University, have apologized for their mischief but the cheeky dancing has sparked outrage from some of their fellow citizens. If there's one lesson to be learned from the whole scandal, I think it's this: If you dance to erotic theme tunes in front of landmarks commemorating national tragedies, it may upset some people.

A lesson, I think, that we can all learn from.

I didn't think Carlsberg did two Japanese girl dance routine videos?

I think you oversold the "panty flashing" aspect of this video, because I saw nary an undergarment. NARY!

I hate Para Para dancing more than I hate racists and child molesters.

yeah that wasn't nearly enough pantsu flashing for me. but even a little bit of pantsu is better than no pantsu.

Pfft. And here I was expecting something obscene. I saw panty for maybe a half second.

But at least this shows that Americans aren't the only people that are over-sensitive about something that happened a long time ago. But I would figure that hawt Japanese schoolgirls exposing...things would be something to celebrate!

If I had a monument built to commemorate my tragic and unfortunate death I seriously don't think I would be in the least bit upset if this happened, in fact I would encourage it.
I like the guy with the bike, it's as if he sees that all the time. "Every bloody day it's the same thing!"

Last time I checked, those things they were wearing while dancing are called skirts. And if you mean the tight shorts they were wearing under, then shame on you for making me excited. Girls wear those and I catch glimpses of them at my school all the time.

Dammit, now I need Asian porn.

They spent 4 minutes there and no one asked them to sign something about nuclear non-proliferation? Japan sure has changed.
