Even Miyazaki said that the effects of the media are starting to show in Japan... The problem of 'shut ins' mentioned in the article are weird... I read somewhere else a while ago that all they do is lock themselves in their room and watch anime and play video games... One teenager even locked a 4 year old girl in his room for two weeks without anyone knowing and fed her noodles and what ever he found in the fridge...
