I know nothing about this aircraft, or what the Japanese text reads, but it looks good.

The text on the side is "asadori" which translates to "morning bird".

Thanks Kaphias. Any clues as to what service that heli might be from? Hard to tell if it's a VIP or EMS or what.

It looks like it belongs to the Japanese newspaper Asahi Shimbun, which translates to "Morning Sun Newspaper". That explains the name of the helicopter "Morning Bird"... cool huh? Also, I found a video on Facebook that was taken from the helicopter: http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=103981373017745

Cool, thanks for that. At least that ties in with it being the VIP variant, so at least I (luckily) got that right.

Going by the link you posted, it looks like you're absolutely correct, as the Rising Sun logo is the same as on the heli.
