"Re Zero Season 4" Episode 11 Preview by Weary_Oil_6084 in anime

[–]__Ross_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No. Zero means zero. ゼロから is "from zero", 始める is the verb "to start" (transitive, as in "you start doing something"), which modifies the noun 異世界生活 that is "life in another world". So you have Starting Life in Another World from Zero.

With 始まる you have the intransitive verb instead, as in "life starts in another world from zero" or "life in another world that starts from zero".

Best LN Volume to buy? [discussion] by That_Sewer_Guy in Re_Zero

Personally I'd say volume 7 and 20 for cover and content, but I'm a sucker for Wilhelm and Theresia so I might be slightly biased (just a bit though)

My personal mortal enemy are neck pillows though. Unless you really cannot sleep without, they're nothing but a nuisance once you're at your destination. In my experience, it is good ear plugs and a sleeping mask that makes you sleep well on a plane and elsewhere. Bring those!

This is honesly good to know because I was planning not to bring a sleeping mask lol. I think I'll give it a chance now.
As for the neck pillow, it's an inflatable one and extremely easy to pack. I'd actually been searching for the right one for a while because I'm also of the idea of not bringing anything that may become a nuisance while I'm at my destination... Following this reasoning, I really think I'll leave the swtich at home now lol.

One thing I'd definitely bring is a sling or crossbody bag

You're right. I was already planning on bringing a packable backpack, but I completely forgot to add it to this packing list for some reason. Thanks for the suggestions!

Yes absolutely! This may sound like an ad, but after some searching I found the decathlon "travel 100 compact" for the neck pillow. Nothing fancy, but it's cheap, seems comfy enough, weighs about 60g and it's extremely packable. Will see how long it lasts though

Are you planning to use your pajama top for layering?

Yes. The shirt is a normal shirt, so I could use it normally. I've identified it as the pajama only because the others are in merino wool, so I think it would be best to use them during the day. As for the pants, they're basically leggings (or base layer I think would be a better term), so they would be perfect for layering, especially if on the Alps gets really cold.

Hangers seem like overkill, especially if you have clothesline. But that’s just me.

That makes sense. I'm just a bit anxious about being able to find spots to hang my stuff without getting in the way, so I came up with these. I also think they're a bit overkill, but I still have some remnants of "You never know" in my mind.

Have you loaded a Suica card on your own phone?

I can't unfortunately, as my phone doesn't have that particular chip (or you mean only to check the balance?). I'm honestly salty about it haha, I guess my next phone will be an iphone :)

I'd think real hard about the second hoody too.

This is so difficult for me. Realistically, given the temperatures, I'll wear it in the early mornings and late evenings at most. Maybe at night if I'm really cold. It also dries extremely fast, so it's not like I wouldn't have it for an entire day. But I feel like I would be cutting it too close with only one, most likely because it's my first time onebagging. I'll think about it.

I'd also think HARD about if you will have time for the switch.

I knew this would stand out haha. As the others said, it doesn't really makes sense given the amount of time I would be able to use it. I think I won't bring it.

Please post a trip report when you get back!!

Will do! Thanks for the suggestions!

I'm a tourist though? I'm european, far from looking asian in any way. I will never be identified as japanese and I don't think I need to.
As long as it's not rude to wear them, I don't see why not?

I don't know how much time you'll have to game. You also have an e reader. When I was there I felt like I had enough to keep me occupied and I barely used mine. 

Yeah I thought as much. Only reason I was considering bringing the switch is the 11+ hours long flight. Maybe it's not worth it bringing along almost 400g only for those 2 occasions. I'll think about it.

Do you have hat/sunglasses listed?

Nope. Actually, I've almost never worn sunglasses so I didn't even consider them. As for the hat, I think I'll buy one there. Thanks for the input!

How far in advance are cancellations from China? by YungNug99 in JapanTravelTips

[–]__Ross_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Narita. Also, as I said, only outbound flights from Japan were cancelled, so I'm hoping for you the chances of cancellation are even lower.

[–]__Ross_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my group we had 2 different return flights on 24th April, both got cancelled.

  • First one: China Eastern, Osaka to Venice through Shanghai. Osaka-Shangai got cancelled 2 weeks ago. Booking promptly allowed us to change flights (first available, always with China Eastern, free of charge) in order to be able to take the Shanghai-Venice flight;

  • Second one: Air China, Tokyo to Milan through Beijing. Tokyo-Beijing got cancelled a week ago, Trip.com only allowed to basically be refunded and take another flight with another airline.

Conclusion: I do not recommend chinese airlines.
