the park should have warned visitors that humans acted as ghosts
So did he think he was karate kicking a real ghost?
Anyway, I think we have the final film in the trilogy started by Karate Bull Fighter and Karate Bear Fighter. Or a Japanese Scooby Doo that is over in a couple of minutes: Jinkies! A werewolf! BAM!
Why else would you train if not to kick ghosts?
To kick...zombies?
The Devil’s work is afoot!
Always upvote for Braindead/Dead Alive.
To kick Frankenstein's Monster.
To kick Wolfman in the nards?
Oh, apparently you can't even roundhouse a ghost anymore. What's this world coming to?
Any insight on why this Japanese legal case took 13 years to rule?
Fax machines and stamps
Also, floppy disks.
You can't kill a ghost with kicks. You have to yell at it.
Hiya!
He said yell not greet.
Damn. That's a weak argument.
I don't know spit about Japanese tort rules, but I would think trying to claim negligence on the part of the park would be essentially dead in the water from the start.
Reflex or not, the fact that he'd been drinking puts the onus directly on him.

His counter-argument is that they should never have allowed him in as he was too drunk.
That's not necessarily true in all countries. If anything, a trained fighter needs to be able to control their reflexes. It's like a soldier walking around drunk pointing a loaded gun everywhere.
I didn't say it was a good counter-argument. He did lose the lawsuit after all.
