While watching an F1 race tonight from my living room sofa, I noticed I was being watched by this large insect with big eyes. What could it want? I think it's after my remote control :-)

They are so loud in the daytime nowadays. I am afraid that my light attracts and confuses these guys at night, actually. But, after 22 years in Japan, today. I think I've been in Japan longer than most of these guys now ;-)

It looks like you took the picture from outside. Did you go out and take the photo?

Definitely on the outside looking in. If it were inside, it would be causing all kinds of panic and noise. That HAS happened on rare occasion, though usually just in the doorway.
