No more so than any other review.
You can't trust me, or anyone else. We all tell lies habitually.
Nothing you see or read on Internet, or in any books ever published, at
any time, can be trusted. Nor can anything you learned in your entire
childhood, schooling and life which is based on anything except your own
observation and experience. Most knowledge is conditional and its truth
or factuality is a cultural variable.
Language itself prevents the objective tranmission of experience or
information.
And when it's all in Japanese :-)
Seriously, why mistrust this review any more than another?
