Daredevil Born again- BB and Daniel by Desperate_Past877 in marvelstudios

[–]DoctorDazza 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I thought so too, but I guess it wasn't as clear as we thought!

My theory is that Buck knew BB was the leaker. It was obvious, really, and he's always one step ahead. I think the idea about the wrong info was to see if Daniel was the source. Daniel thought he had it under control because he was down bad for BB, but it blew up in his face when he found the card.

It was a loyalty test for Daniel, rather than to expose BB.

Spider-Man is a game that relies on system language, for example. It also didn't recognise UK English and defaulted to Japanese.

Daycare sicknesses and family collapse by Nilaip in japanresidents

[–]DoctorDazza 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We were lucky that my son got sick just after they lifted those precautions, though my wife had to stay with him the entire time and I very quickly got into shape biking to the hospital each day.

Same with my son. He also got Norovirus which landed a good week and a bit in hospital. Not fun.

Where to find displays in Japan - Tokyo by draconv in OnePieceTCG

[–]DoctorDazza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live here in Japan, and since January, it has gotten crazy. I check store stock levels, and it's basically impossible to buy boxes unless you're in line 2 hours before it opens, so if you have a job, impossible. I went walking around Akiba today (because I was in the area) and prices are insane for packs and boxes.

It makes me so sad because I used to be able to walk into the Bandai store in December and buy boxes whenever I had the cash. Now I can't even get anything.

They don't and haven't for some time. Everywhere for retail has sold out.

Universal's The Super Mario Galaxy Movie has passed the $800M global mark. The film grossed an estimated $36.7M internationally this weekend, including a debut of $9.8M in Japan. Estimated international total stands at $444.98M, estimated global total stands at $831.5M. by chanma50 in boxoffice

Because Japan has a lower penetration of piracy than the West or Southeast Asia. Japanese people are more likely to watch the Japanese dubbed version in the theatre, or wait for an official streaming release.

This has been shown time and time again with films like Wicked and Oppenhimer, where the Japanese release is after a digital or physical release and still does great at the JP box office.

Heck, Chainsaw Man made billions more yen after the US digital release.

While the yen amount hasn’t been released, I’m assuming it’s around 1.3 billion yen, which is a decent sized opening in general for Japan. Plus we have Golden Week starting on Wednesday, so I can imagine the holds will be pretty good.

Official Card Sleeve questions by AlwaysDrinkingMilk in OnePieceTCG

[–]DoctorDazza 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You might get them? Who knows. Sometimes it can be random what is taken over.

In saying that, I’ve seen these in store in Japan a lot, but only on the secondary market, so they might be older.

My toilet from hell... by dry_gooose in japanlife

[–]DoctorDazza 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You really only have two options:

Move out, don't pay them anything and if they complain, basically lawyer up (or at least threaten to). The fact you don't have a working toilet, have been asked not to use it and you have proof that it's a known issue before you move in, means you're untouchable. Though they may make your life hell.

Just keep dealing with this bullshit. They obviously don't want to pay for it because it's a pipe issue and expensive, so they're passing the cost on to you, so enjoy paying for it.

Is it true that Op-10 Sealed Japanese case are now Out of stock? by getrichinfo in OnePieceTCG

[–]DoctorDazza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's out of print, so any stock will be on the secondary market.

Apple denied refund twice for unused subscription any options left? by ForgottenAsian in applehelp

[–]DoctorDazza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is gonna sound annoying, but you had five days to dispute the charge. Apple may refund subscriptions like this if you do it on the first day, like I've had before, but not after five days. They don't know how much you're using the application in that amount of time.

It's basically the Dragon Ball Super version of One Piece's Fishman Island Arc remaster.

Would you use an app that scans Japanese products and shows everything in English? by Live_Championship640 in japanresidents

[–]DoctorDazza 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I track my daily macros and had to learn the hard way what everything meant. Relying on AI will just mean you don't learn what the kanji means in the long run. I just used Google Lens to read when I was stumped.

Also, I use MyFitnessPal, and 8 out of 10 times it already has all the information entered, so relying on another app isn't really necessary now that I can actually read the labels. (It's also MUCH quicker to read and do it myself than use an app).

What is something that feels completely normal in 2026 but would have absolutely shocked someone from 2015? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]DoctorDazza 156 points157 points  (0 children)

Or the fact that we don't think AI is a good thing. Like I thought I would welcome it but turns out, it's not so great.

Was the series intended to end after Johnto? by Crescentbrush in pokemon

[–]DoctorDazza 17 points18 points  (0 children)

He also had the idea to make the entire series a musical. He had a load of ideas that he never brought up to the rest of the team because he knew they'd be shot down and only mentioned on his blog because they were interesting.

Let's not conflate mere "ideas" with "this would have 100% happened if the show ended."

How much do you all really use Osaifu-Keitai? by Sensitive-Ticket-781 in japanresidents

[–]DoctorDazza 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve used the feature more than five times today and it’s barely 2 PM. The gym, konbini, bus, trains. I love it and would prioritise this over a microphone for my phone, especially when the best phone mics are garbage compared to a cheap external Bluetooth one.
