"Ninja of Heisei" arrested after 8 years and >250 break-ins

If he were 10 years younger and free, I'd consider adding him to my elite security staff.

So only $30,000/year? Amateur

If Japan has social security, add that to it and he probably had a comfortable retirement with $30k tax-free income.

There are certain thieves that I actually like, as long as they cause no harm to individuals. I don't agree with their actions and they deserve their jailtime and sentences..but they are somewhat cool. Case in point...the Dinner Time Bandits. Not saying it's right...but undeniably cool. Once again... I do not agree or sanction theft- but sometimes the style is too good to ignore.

The story didn't say "Alleged" thief so it is clearly slanted against him. Yellow journalism, and whatnot.

You need security to go to the Daiquiri Hut?

"He was dressed all in black just like a ninja," a senior official in the western Japanese city of Osaka said.

For future reference, you are better off in a mix of muted grays, greens and dark blues than solid black. Solid black actually stands out at night.
