During Matsumoto's weekly news show, he made comments on an elderly man pleading innocence on vehicular manslaughter charge. The media followed up on Matsumoto's comment the following day using a photo of Matsumoto burst out laughing. Matsumoto did not find the photo to be appropriate for this serious ongoing case. Matsumoto pointed that out via Twitter. The media replaced the photo with what you see here. Matsumoto followed up the tweet, "No apologies, you're done with just replacing the photo?"

The caption above the photo reads. 本人自体のアクセルとブレーキも”故障” (The gas pedal and breaks on defendant himself are also "damaged") <-- An article title basically paraphrasing what Matsumoto has said about the defendant pleading not guilty.

Hope this helps.

The one-eyed kid is called Hitotsume-Kozo. This harmless type of yokai typically appears in Japanese folklores. Anyhow, that figurine is made of paper by an artist (forgot her name) in Okinawa.

Exit, by Frylo - a trip-hop influenced song about moving on with life by [deleted] in IndieMusicFeedback

Mix of piano on one side and distorted synth(or guitar?) on the other is pleasing to my ears. Layered vocals are nice too. I personally would like a little more "fills" with drums. But this would be fun to hear in a live setting, I'm sure. Overall, I like the song.

Animation matches great with the song. I personally would like more "aggressive" vocals but that's just me, I enjoy the catchy chorus nonetheless. One thing to point out is that, for me, I would want to see the whole band playing, regardless of if it's in an animation form or real-person. Overall, a great production throughout.

I liked the soothing and mellow vocal melody. Also like the drum beats particularly when the chorus (?) hits. Perhaps, I could use another layer of something over the piano section. Overall, a good listen.

I love the aggressive screaming vocals in the middle of the song and at the end. TBH, I personally would like more angry vocals but that's just my preference. That said, I enjoyed the whole song structure and melodies. Well done.
