It’s not required by Japanese law, but it is a courtesy that other Japanese sites do. AkibaBlog is a prime example with the ‘laughing man’ for example. HD actually has a pretty large Japanese readership for an English language, and we’d prefer not to annoy the natives. Also, we’ve basically posted photographic evidence of people hanging around in Akiba, not a social or professional bonus in many places in Japan.

Is blocking out the faces a necessary thing required by Japanese law? As far as I know there is no right to privacy if you are photographed in public. Of course you should not be taking “peeping” type photos either, one would expect and most laws agree that that kind of public photography crosses the line.

I am certain those uniformed men are not police but private security guards. Police have much plainer uniforms and distinctive badges. A great photo essay though!

The cops keep an eye on things to make sure they’re not getting out of control, but I have seen them stop acts and move along – in fact, you can see a group of guys in black getting stopped mid performance above.

Is it me, or are none of those street acts actually allowed? I’ve seen a few pictures (and videos) of people getting dispersed by the cops. Japanese policemen uniforms make me lol. They look like law enforcement pyjamas.
