As most of you are already aware, Japan suffered a major earthquake last Friday (3/11), last reported to be 9.0 magnitude, making it the largest ever recorded in the country's history. The epicenter struck off the coast of Sendai in the Miyagi prefecture and caused a catastrophic tsunami which hit the eastern coastline. The quake and its aftershocks caused heavy damage, but was incomparable to the destruction of the waves. Sendai was hit by a massive 10-meter tsunami traveling at jet speeds and many other cities such as Tokyo suffered 4-meter high waves as well. Everything in the tsunami's path was swept away, including entire towns, and many people were stranded by the water.

As much as I like Lag and his unwavering beliefs, there are times when someone should tell him things don't always work that way in the adult world. You know, smack him around with the reality bat a little bit. One would think that common sense says not to protect someone who's been just trying to kill you just moments ago, but away Lag goes, jumping in front of Caribs and Hazel when they're staring down the barrel of Noir's gun.
