AkibaBlog covers some interesting theft warning signs in Akiba.
The first one says "If you steal then you shall pay with your body" ^^;
Saber is watching you below.
Gundam warning "you shall be corrected." Literal translation - not sure of nuance.
"Our surveillance cameras really work."
The standard procedure when caught stealing is that one is lead into a room, questioned and then the parents, school or work place is called to report the incident.
The video below is of undercover "Manbiki G Men" who patrol supermarkets - here they catch two school girls stealing and lead them to the back office for questioning.
The below video is interesting - G-Men are supposed to be undercover but this G-men dresses up as an undercover alligator and still manages to catch a thief!
"Manbiki" [万引き] means "to steal."
Have you manbiki anything before and if so what was it?
