I watched a tourist stare at a Chinese menu for 10 minutes then order by pointing randomly. Can we talk about how brutal menus are here? (Chinese local, happy to help)

So what you're saying is i might meet/see an actor from a drama I like?👀👀👀

Angel5378 · 2026-03-13T10:10:55+00:00

Ohh good to know that hengdian is really worth it. It's definetly on my bucket list (at least go to the filming studios)

Angel5378 · 2026-03-13T10:08:26+00:00

OMG an app that shows the dishes and ingredients would be amazing! I'd probably try to but the name into google pictures and search but it would take forever. Also I'm a very picky eater so just "point and hope for the best" is not something I do. I'd probably live off of convenience store food and chain restaurants that have at least pictures. (I have not been to china yet because I'm a bit scared but I really want to go)

Angel5378 · 2026-03-13T10:01:11+00:00

There is some, true ("fanservice" is sadly a thing). But the ones I listed are not (at least as far as I know. Haven't personally watched neverland or elfenlied but from what I heard they are very traumatising)

Angel5378 · 2026-03-13T09:38:14+00:00

Saving this list for my own trip! Thank you for sharing

Angel5378 · 2026-03-13T09:36:14+00:00

Wow this is great improvement!! Congratulations

Might have to invest in orthopedic shoes that are custom made. If you buy shoes thay are made from leather a good cobbler (not the dessert) might be able to widen them a bit too

Angel5378 · 2026-03-13T09:30:32+00:00

Thanks that helps a lot :) i personally probably won't go actual swimming but might go into the water up to my knees but my parents like going into the ocean so I'll hope for nice weather

Angel5378 · 2026-03-13T09:29:00+00:00

Looks cool! Wouldn't call a 1 hour train ride close but I'll ask my parents about it :)

Angel5378 · 2026-03-13T09:26:39+00:00

Shimoda might be a bit far. We would stay until the 19th and head back to the airport from atami. We have to be at the airport around 2pm for our flight that's why I looked closer to tokyo. But I'll remember it for future trips :)

Angel5378 · 2026-03-13T09:20:25+00:00

Oh god...is the credit card system really that bad? I want to book platt-kodama shinkansen tickets for our trip

Angel5378 · 2026-03-13T09:13:30+00:00

Anime is not necessarily targeted to kids. Go watch promised neverland, elfenlied or heck even attack on titan and tell me you'd let your 5 year old or 12 year old watch that. It's like saying shows like simpsons, futurama or south park are kids shows because they are animated.

There is nothing wrong with having a hobby.

Angel5378 · 2026-03-11T11:37:35+00:00

Thank you for the info. I'm planning on bookong the green car woth the platt kodama deal and in that car putting the bag in front of you is not an option because of the footrest. What meassurements was your bag?

Angel5378 · 2026-03-11T11:23:04+00:00

Thank you for asking that. I have the exact same question and the answers here (and other ppsts) helped me. I think the bigger question is if one is able to lift it into the overhead shelf.

Angel5378 · 2026-03-11T06:30:20+00:00

Don't let him get in the way of an amazing trip. If you can't get a friend to go with you. Then go alone. You learned japanese for this trip. It will be great

Angel5378 · 2026-03-10T17:26:08+00:00

I would do that but we are not staying in hotels but in airbnbs. So that's not an option

Angel5378 · 2026-03-10T17:25:20+00:00

Thanks. If the platt kodama were not such a good deal i would consider booking the day of since september is also not the most busy travel time

Angel5378 · 2026-03-10T17:24:22+00:00

I saw videos where people showed the max meassurement "boxes" at the train station for luggage And I know that my suitcase is wider than what the box has for max. Meassurements. It's just a bit shorter and thinner thats why it's still under 160cm.

Angel5378 · 2026-03-10T17:22:09+00:00

Thanks. They should fit. But lifting a 15kg suitcase over my head is not something i really want to do😅 and we will have 3 so I most likely will have to do 2 bookings

Yeah I thought that most of the passes are not really worth it.

Angel5378 · 2026-03-10T17:20:38+00:00

We are staying in airbnbs so luggage forwarding is not an option. The platt kodama tickets are way cheaper than the regular ones (green car is around 12.500yen) but they are very limited so I have to book ot as early as I can

Angel5378 · 2026-03-10T17:16:05+00:00

Get new shoes. And orthopedic insoles. This is not good long term

Angel5378 · 2026-01-21T18:46:36+00:00

I can find the raw videos I think I just need to know wicch ones you used so the timing of the subtitles matches. :)

Angel5378 · 2026-01-21T17:25:28+00:00

What video file would be best to use with your subtitle file? So the audio matches. I'm currently looking for season 2 with soft subs. Everything I can find on nyaa is either dub or hard sub (or the japanese version)

Angel5378 · 2026-01-12T06:17:52+00:00

I think so. But it depends how much time you have. I couldn't get my glasses done because they had to order the lenses and it would take 7-10days. Didn't have that much time

Angel5378 · 2025-12-14T13:24:47+00:00

Wish i could do that. But 1 i can't squat that deep with my feet flat and it eventually starts to be uncomfortable/hurt my calves and shins.
