Japan’s population, including non-Japanese residents, as of Oct. 1 last year dropped by 595,000, or 0.48 pct, from a year before to 124,352,000, down for the 13th successive year, the internal affairs ministry said Friday.
The number of people aged 75 or over exceeded 20 million for the first time ever, showing that the aging of the country’s population has advanced further.
Japan: “We could allow those dirty foreigners into the country to ruin the purity of the Japanese population or we could keep trying to figure out how to use robots to make our society continue to function.”
World: “You’re doing robots, aren’t you?”
Japan: “We’re doing robots.”
Of course they are doing robots. Japan was founded on the idea that the country would eventually be run by robots and kaiju. Their kaiju progress is sorely lacking.
They are right.

My mate’s Japanese girlfriend didn’t like my Japanese mate because he “wasn’t really Japanese”. Dude’s family moved to Australia when he was 14. Meanwhile she’s the one dating the most English guy ever.
