The Great Hanshin Earthquake was a big laugh. There must have been someone else counting the victims. I did. It was thrilling to hear the death toll climb: 2000? That's the way! Now, another 1,000! It was just exciting to watch the numbers continue to rise! Only 6,000 died in the end, though. It was nothing to fuss about.
The Great Hanshin Earthquake was a big joke. I mean it. I was having a nice cup of tea while watching their stupid faces on TV. I almost went there for a souvenir shot. But at least the quake had extra advantages for some people. The governor or the mayor were reluctant to get support from SDF, they simply wanted to wipe out that entire area, you see. Some of them still live in the shelters, what the nerve! We are paying for it, for God's sake! Oh, well, what did they do with the toilet then. Shit in the streets? Are you serious? Disgusting! Anyway, the image on TV was spectacular. It was like watching a live broadcast from some Onsen towns.
