Anyway....
Japanese news outlets have their own graphic design sensibility, doing things I would never expect to find in a national paper in the states. Things like, say, pasting heads of public figures on cartoon bodies. Today's illustration is a case in point, as they milked the term "fiscal cliff" for all it's worth:
The title is "If Japan and America fall off the fiscal cliff..." and outlines of a possible outcome are below. The US side below President Obama reads "Democrats and Republicans are unable to come to a compromise -> Tax cuts expire, the budget is cut -> American economy fails, striking a blow to the world economy". The Japanese side by Prime Minister Noda ends with confusion in the bond market affecting local economies.
Cliff in a coal mine, that's where it's at!
