Yeah, technically he did. I didn't watch the whole thing, but at the very beginning, he lists her among several other people he feels he should apologize to. So I guess that counts?

Honestly, whether he apologized to her or not means very little imo. If I were her, I'd probably be pissed one way or another because I would just think the only reason he is apologizing is because he got caught and apologizing publicly is what he is expected to do to help save face in Japanese culture. I'd have a real hard time believing that that was sincere, so I'd probably be more like shove your apology, lol.

Now, to turn this back to Namie - it's doubtful it would happen, but hopefully this doesn't effect her retirement too badly in terms of what songs she performs, et cetera.
