Description:

This is a little video I made with a couple of friends about a restaurant chain in Japan called Pepper Lunch. Interestingly, you can also get dinner there. It is a pretty cool place and the food is great. A couple people have made comments about the fact that recently (May 18, 2007) a girl was raped by a Pepper Lunch manager and worker. Here are some links to more information: http://www.japantoday.com/jp/news/406882 -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pepper_Lunch

I can't explain with my poor vocabulary what's really happend and why it's a probleme to "forget" what happend but your version is unfortunaly the official, Pepper Lunch side version. IT WAS a serial rape, IT happen in a difficult area, the back have enough power to vanish it, and it's mean Japan is anymore a safety place. You can be raped, eat or sold while nobody knows (beacause media not talk about).

It's normal that you didn't hear anything from your japanese friends, it taked more 1 week to appear in news and on TV for the first time and it was the last time also. While that, they discards the restaurant where crime happend habitualy (until one girl succeed to escape after raped), made an insider trade and made pressure to "not talk about this probleme" anymore...

I found a news report please google "japantoday rape osaka" and you'll find the article. Japanese mass communication is going to cover this case for some reason. It is often that the case that a foreigner caused is concealed in Japan.

Oh, and apparently spelling Japanese is too difficult for me also. My mistake. J-a-p-a-n-e-s-e. That is better.

Okay, I did some research about the Pepper Lunch rape thing. Here's the deal as I understand it. A couple of losers who worked at one Pepper Lunch raped a 20 year old customer and admitted to it. It isn't a serial rape thing, it is a an isolated incident. Pepper Lunch shouldn't be held responsible for a couple of obviously mentally unstable criminals that happen to be their employees. See my video comments for links to more information

Thank you for the information. I have not heard anything about it, even from my Nihon-jin friends. I can only read Hiragana, Katakana, Romaji and a few Kanji so reading a Japanses newspaper is too difficult for me. I will ask my Nihon-jin friends about it.
