Mutual Perceptions and Images in Japanese-German Relations, 1860-2010 (Brill, 2017) examines the mutual images formed between Japan and Germany from the mid-nineteenth to twenty-first centuries, and the influence of these images on the development of bilateral relations. Unlike earlier research on Japanese-German relations, which focused on the similarity of these countries' historical trajectories, this publication presents a more nuanced picture. It relativizes perceptions of a special "spiritual relationship" between Japan and Germany as well as their commonalities of "national character" through an exploration of previously untapped historical visual and textual sources. With essays by sixteen leading scholars in the field, this collection is an invaluable contribution to the historiography of modern Japan and Germany, and to the field of international relations. Contributors are: Hans-Joachim Bieber, Fukuoka Mariko, Hakoishi Hiroshi, Iwasa Takurō, Katō Yōko, Kawakita Atsuko, Gerhard Krebs, Kudō Akira, Heinrich Menkhaus, Danny Orbach, Peter Pantzer, Sven Saaler, Satō Takumi, Volker Stanzel, Suzuki Naoko, Tajima Nobuo, Tano Daisuke, and Rolf-Harald Wippich.

Divorce can feel like a storm that rolls in fast—no forecast, no shelter, no time to prepare. One day, you're a husband, a full-time father, a provider with a plan. The next, you're staring at an empty home, a fractured schedule with your kids, and a mountain of legal and emotional upheaval. It doesn't just split assets—it splits your identity.You may find yourself questioning your worth, your role, and your future. The routines that grounded you—picking up your kids from school, sitting at the dinner table, even just being part of a family unit—can vanish overnight. Finances take a hit. Friendships grow awkward. Even the strongest men can feel blindsided, powerless, and utterly alone.If you're a dad navigating this storm, I want you to know something crucial: you're not weak for struggling, and you don't have to weather it alone. This month—Men's Mental Health Awareness Month—is the perfect time to drop the armor, silence the shame, and take a real, honest look at what you're carrying inside.Because you're not just fighting for yourself—you're fighting for your presence in your children's lives, for your future peace of mind, and for the version of you that's still in there, waiting to rise.Let's talk. Let's be honest. And most importantly—let's help each other make it through.Join our Signal Channel: https://shorturl.at/8yqTbJoin The Divorce Dadvocate Membership Community - FULL Episodes - Live Meetings – FREE Workshops & Courses – Private Discussion Groups & MORE! - https://thedivorceddadvocate.com/membership-tiers/How Are You Adjusting To Your Divorce?

Akira Saito (Sho Kosugi) is living a lovely life with his wife, Aiko (Donna Kei Benz), and their two young boys in Japan. Akira does have a secret. Is it that he's awesome? Yes! One day, Aiko encourages Akira to move the family to the U.S. where she was born. They make the move. This does not go well – and quickly! Some local mob thugs have been storing their secret goods in a hidey hole adjacent to the Saito's new residence. A cop on the take steals a necklace from the mob and an enforcer, Limehouse (James Booth), goes completely bananas in his own mind. Totally APE here! Limehouse proceeds to go on a series of odd adventures to harass and harm the Saito family. Akira is all, naw man! Then, he unleashes the full ninja – fancy head garb and all. RTS wonders if this was all real. Ninjas aren't real, right? Wink! Collin takes the time to admire the stunning silk ninja-wear. Jeremy becomes a dock rat. It's more appealing than one would think. La-Mar heads to Pier 25 for blowtorch games and loose necklace inquiries. Can we ever truly put our shadows behind ourselves?

Send us a textWilliam Gibson described Cyberpunk as a fusion of high-tech and low-life, exploring the intersection of technology, cybernetics, and computer networks on human society in a near-future, often dystopian setting.If you don't know who William Gibson is then shame on you.Like most people out there, my first exposure to Cyberpunk was Blade Runner. The 1982 movie by Ridley Scott blew me away. After that I watched movies like Freejack and Johnny Mnemonic, Akira, and Ghost in the Shell. it wasn't until the late 90's that I started diving into the literary world of Cyberpunk with Nuromancer and Snowcrash.I loved the setting, the style, the tech, and the action, but I never got into the roleplaying games. I heard about Cyberpunk, and Cyberpunk 2020. But for some strange reason I never picked them up.Then Mike asked me if I was interested in playing Cyberpunk Red.I jumped at the chance.Mike ran our group though almost a year of Cyberpunk using the Cyberpunk Red rules and we have recently started up again focusing more on the Edgerunner 2077 expansion for Cyberpunk Red.After that much game time, we got opinions.In this episode Mike, Christina and I are going to give you an honest, unbiased review of Cyberpunk Red.But before we do that, Christina, break down the legalese for us.[Kick to Christina so she can go on about how we haven't been paid or compensated in any way for our opinion and we bought the shit with money out of our own pocket.]Now Mike, Start us off on our review of Cyberpunk Red.

When I tell a dad going through divorce to stay strong, I'm not throwing him a vague motivational cliché. I'm giving him a call to arms—a reminder of what strength looks like when your world is cracking open, when your identity as a father is getting reshaped by custody schedules, courtrooms, and the quiet ache of an empty house.Strength during divorce doesn't look like keeping a stiff upper lip and pretending everything's fine. It's not about powering through without feeling anything. Real strength, in this context, is much messier, more grounded, and more necessary than that. Here's what stay strong really means:Join our Signal Channel: https://shorturl.at/8yqTbJoin The Divorce Dadvocate Membership Community - FULL Episodes - Live Meetings – FREE Workshops & Courses – Private Discussion Groups & MORE! - https://thedivorceddadvocate.com/membership-tiers/How Are You Adjusting To Your Divorce?
