You know this episode reminds me of all those idiots who I see all over the place bitching about smoking. Really, if these people were not such passive, hippie garbage we could actually have something like this happen. The war on smoking, violent uprising which will lead to a band, then new black markets, and the eventual return of smoking. Though it is kind of funny to think of how incredibly close to reality this episode is. I mean really, it is hard to believe that something like this would come out of Japan.

That is the funny thing about this episode.. I mean I would expect something like this in America, but not from Japan.. then again I guess my only exposure to Japan has been anime. Still the culture can show through a bit. I mean the shows I watch always make them seem so passive to smoking.. then again.. I guess the same can be said about TVs shows here. Well whatever, I guess that is jut how things are. Still I think it would be fun to be able herd up the smokers of the state and slowly execute... I mean trap them and force them to quit... just because that might be a fun civil war to see. Oh well.. I guess that we just have to enjoy it in anime form.
