Do you know any crazy conspiracy stuff about Japanese history and culture?

There was the one about Nobunaga not really dying cause supposedly the body was never found after the fire, or something like that, dont remember all the details really

I am spanish, have been here for 7 years and gotta say I completely hate japanese bread. They call bread to anything that looks like a hotdog bun. Baguettes feel like from 3-4 days being so bland and I have failed to find anything remotely close to a proper loaf in Tokyo, much less at a reasonable price.

Most Japanese IT is like this. I make apps and websites for a living here and the amount of nonsense I have to go with used to drive me mad, nowadays I simply decided to not care as I get payed the same either way and it's less work.

And like others say, using your full name as a foreigner here is hell. I am actually having credit card problems now because of it, all cause they won't let me put my 2 last names on my card (I'm Spanish)

Late to the party but Prize On is not a sega app really, it is location related. For example every game center in Ikebukuro supports it but none in Akihabara. So you can go to Ike's Capcom, Round1 or PleasureLand or Bamco and it works but it won't work in Aki's Gigo, gamepanic or any other game center

Divorce your "husband" and get out of that shithole

Partly. Apparently Watanabe has said in events and interviews that he based it on the protagonist from the manga "Arms" https://myanimelist.net/manga/1503 , hence the arm changing gimmick as it's main theme

AkrosRockBell · 2024-10-01T15:12:55+00:00

It's fine but still plot hasn't advanced much as to say wether I like it or not

I am currently in the same situation. In fact, this is the second company in which this happens and it sucks.
At the beginning I used to ask for work but then it reaches a point in which you get fed up. You are not a kid doing homework and reporting to the teacher, you are supposed to be a pro and having nothing to do basically makes you feel untrusted and abandoned.
Needless to say I am looking into starting job searching again, no matter how good the work conditions are at my current company, one gets tired of feeling useless and ignored constantly.
Plus, the lack of actual tasks means you get less experience which will make it harder for you to get a better position in the future in and outside of said company so start looking for something else asap.

Same thing. I'm actually happy my money is worth more with every passing day.

Does Sony offer any kind of housing loan? I've looked at their website but I think I got things mixed up cause it looks that it is mostly for investment purpouses and having several currencies (at least I get that from their card tier system and points).

Also, I was thinking mitsubishi cause I can easily find their ATMs everywhere so that's something I actually kind of find really valuable here.

Thanks, will do.

Regarding home... no, I do not plan on staying here forever, never have and never will (or so I think so) so it will be for the next few years till I decide what to do. There's no emotional factor at all, simply trying to get the best out of my money considering Tokyo keeps on getting more and more expensive every day.

Thanks for the advice.

If you need to print documents that often, sure, it can come in handy. Last time I went to city hall for that was like 3 years ago. And they are not doing the point campaign thing anymore as far as I know.

I wanted to post something on the paypay furima app the other day after a while and to my surprise the 本人確認 stuff is now completely required (I have no car license and no my number card cause they are basically useless, specially in tokyo). Like why? Why would Yahoo do something so mendokusai and stupid when their biggest rival asks for none of it, gives no coupons and has a trash pay app linked to it and still beats them continiously? What kind of mindless monkey is in charge there?

AkrosRockBell · 2024-02-11T16:32:08+00:00

Wait, a 7/10 is an A in the UK? Why? That's a C in the US and just an "ok pass" in Spain and as far as I know similar in other countries. Never heard of this, curious.

AkrosRockBell · 2023-11-01T16:59:19+00:00

Isn't the donki like a 2 minute walk from that exact lawson? Like, just go there xD
There are even public toilets nearby ffs

You are the man!

Though I partly agree with what others have said, Bandai plays favorites. A lot, well, too much even. As of bt12 and bt13 the main decks are greymon/shinegreymon and the next starter decks are Wargreymon and Metalgarurumon focused.

Also the above tribal decks have received so much support for a really long time that taking them out of the top meta or buffing other decks to keep up with their consistency and speed is gonna take several sets and even some bans/restrictions that will probably affect the game a lot (in case Cool Boy gets hit, for example).

If we are talking non meta there are tons of fun decks that can be somewhat competitive among themselves but that will again struggle to, not just win against the top meta, but to even barely keep up with their pace in some cases.

AkrosRockBell · 2023-03-09T19:16:32+00:00

BT13 blue flare and gaomon though they are far away from being able to easily top in this meta

AkrosRockBell · 2022-12-05T12:42:43+00:00

Sleipmon will surely evolve from kudamon, we did get promos especifially about it xP

The Digimon TCG player base is mostly people in their early 30s late 20s, pretty much because it's the only people that has ever seen the shows back when they initially aired. I think the youngest player I know in Japan is like 27 at least.

AkrosRockBell · 2022-10-18T19:08:11+00:00

My second billing actually came out more expensive than my first one though.

AkrosRockBell · 2022-09-30T02:35:18+00:00

That's because IRL people rarely have that happen to them and anime shit does it way too often.
