Not the first time

4 or 5 years ago a JAL acft was told to line up and hold, and he rolled down the runway and completed his takeoff. I know because I worked at JAL back then. I think it even happen at the same airport (Haikado).

On the previous incident it was a CRM problem because the Capt thought he was cleared, the FO thought different but was too afraid to say anything.
