Some replies mention floor area ratio and setback regulations, but judging from this shape, I think it's 'to clear the shadow regulations' (the angle for the setback regulations is too gentle).

I regularly see comments like, 'What's up with VTubers always just chatting and playing games, no matter what their persona is?' But it's obviously because they're adapting to the compliance and popular entertainment trends of our world. Even if they were to use their species to do something like a 'blood tasting,' nobody would watch it.

This current system of 'lost and founder contacting each other directly to negotiate a reward' stems from a terrible incident 38 years ago where the police framed a kind woman who found the lost item to cover up embezzlement (listed on the Japanese Wikipedia as the 'Police Officer Embezzlement Incident'), but there are far too many other problems, so I hope it will be improved again as soon as possible . https://t.co/cyb3dqeqGb

On Thursday, September 3, 2026, Minato Ward took disciplinary action against 'Kappo Komeo,' a restaurant that experienced a food poisoning outbreak caused by Salmonella bacteria. The details of this disciplinary action were published on the Minato Ward website on Thursday, September 3, in accordance with Article 69 of the Food Sanitation Act.
This tsukemen grand prix has also been 'cancelled,' not 'withdrawn.'

Well, I understand why you'd want to ask a shop that specializes in crabs.
in,
'Did you get food poisoning because it was crab?'
'Are crabs prone to causing food poisoning?'
I was asked questions that made it sound like the crab was the bad guy... https://t.co/GDo0K7fJsI

The cause was identified, and it turned out that it would have been better to reuse the ingredients from the previous day.
It turns out the cause wasn't the crab ramen shop, but the main branch, a high-end Japanese restaurant specializing in rice dishes, had an extremely unsanitary kitchen where it was no surprise that food poisoning could occur at any moment... pic.twitter.com/hRgSPOPK1b
Regarding the 30km/h speed limit on wide-area agricultural roads,
— Dead Section (@ACDCSection) September 4, 2026
- I don't even know the term 'wide-area agricultural road'
I'm imagining a path like the ridges between rice paddies where farming vehicles such as tractors and tillers run.
People in the city who fit this description say, 'In the countryside, just drive quietly at 30 km/h lol.'
Please keep quiet and don't make provocative statements that will only anger drivers in rural areas.
If there's one positive side effect of this WakatteTV controversy, it might be that it's given Fukushima University an opportunity to update its image from the 'old entrance exam map.'

In the end, Kura Sushi has been turning a blind eye to the fraudulent practices in their 'Bikkura Pon' game for over 10 years.
— Exor2 (@xor2) September 2, 2026
It's only now, at the Chiikawa level, that the official company is finally going to investigate, but back in 2017 with Pompompurin, even though people were listing the 1/500 rare items on Mercari from the very first day, their response was 'no cheating.'
I haven't been to Kura Sushi much since then. https://t.co/y6lDxRKa0P
The Kura Sushi 'Bikkura Pon' problem is something that is often heard whenever they collaborate with popular works.
— Shi-chan (@C_Chantaro) September 3, 2026
Up until now, the issue was mainly with otaku, so it could be ignored, but the Chiikawa community has a large number of ordinary people, many of whom have children, and many families who like the character together, so it has become a big problem.
If they hadn't ignored past controversies and taken countermeasures, things wouldn't have turned out this way.
It's sad for the fans, the work, and the creator . https://t.co/8HcYN9Gh9d
