Well brilliant-yet-heartless Yamapi doc has had lesson 1 of how to be in touch with your humanity. tbh I think it came so early because they needed an excuse to get him off the helicopter. Although I wouldn't want any of the other doctors going near me in a emergency since they seem to just bottle i...

I watched up to ep 4 and the episode really annoyed me. I think I'm the only person that thinks it's totally understandable that Taro sees her as a little sister and that well ones love being unrequited happens, no use trying to guilt the other person or crying for hours over it. I don't know if peo...

Not this video again... That video was made by Debito Ando or what ever his name is. He is a nut job, who basically does far more damage than he does good by being a loud mouth dick, that is not the way to accomplish anything in Japan, it will just turn people and go 'iyaaa' to all gaijin. Thos sign...

Spector? Uh pot calling kettle black. This is what the gaijin talento sell out has also said: Making foreigners cuter takes away the threat of foreigners being more powerful, or having more know-how, or more sophistication. So definitely, they use that in a way to make themselves more comfortable. S...

[Discussion] Elite Yankee Saburo
Well I thought Elite Yankee Saburou deserved a discussion thread! One of my favourite characters is Ishi, his ideas of the 'the man's way' and traditional honour crack me up. One of my favourite moments is in ep 3 when the gang members are trying to distract him by saying there are a horse legion co...

Being an 'actress' in Japan isn't impossible, but by actress I mean being an extra. You just need to look half decent and have a pulse to do that. As for challenging racial sterotypes...sorry but, dream on. That's how the gaijin talento make their money, living up to the sterotype and parading aroun...

basically I just want to enjoy Japan and become more fluent. I heard that Osaka dialect is kind of hard to understand at first. is this true? I would say...no. There's a few words which are unique, and different endings, but once you know them they're easy to pick out. And that mainly applies to ca...

I lived in Tokyo for over a year, and I've lived in Osaka for 6 months. Hands down now I'd go for Osaka. I thought Tokyo was pretty cool while I was there, but once I started living in Osaka (I was reluctant at first) I really fell in love with it. Mainly for the people, they're much more friendly t...

Just downloaded this drama last week. As someone who goes to a host club far too regularly, this week I asked my named host about it. Of course he's a big fan lol. I asked who's his favourite character, 'seiya?' No no, Ryosuke lol, of course he is. He then spent the next half hour trying to find the...
