Former Nova President kidnapped by yakuza - 10-01-2009, 12:30 AM

Interesting news from yesterday,

Gangster trio held for confining ex-Nova president in hotel room

It looks like Sahashi might have been borrowing money from loan sharks. Too bad the police got there before they had a chance to break his legs.

By this point, there's nothing that could really tarnish Nova any further.

With the Eikaiwa market shrinking, I don't have my hopes up for G-Comm/NOVA.

I wonder how long it will be until G-Comm/NOVA is keeping the rent money they take from the paycheck instead of passing it along to the landlords
