    First off- you seem to have an infatuation with all things Japanese :D

    Secondly- That is just ridiculous. I don't see how they can let the agency get away with that. It's a whole lot of money being thrown around over something stupid.

    An anime character in space. :rolleyes:

    I'm glad they kicked him out. I just wish an airlock had been involved.
