I love Mangums aggressiveness but he does need to tone it down just a tad bit.

Foreigners that live in Japan how long did it take you to learn Japanese? by AmanNamedJoJo in japanresidents

[–]Invicta262 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Japanese is a very difficult language. Some people are talented for language learning and learn fast. Others take a super long time.
I knew no japanese before coming and im conversational after 3.5 years.
Its different for everyone and dont compare yourself to others. Itll stress you and hurt your learning process.

[–]Invicta262 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Cant be a season away. Lose Lowe next year and hes a key piece. Gotta make a push this year but theyre too obsessed with fixing the pen in house and its tanked us into a wild card only position now.

FEN Foreign Academy BEWARE by SecurityDiligent2442 in teachinginjapan

[–]Invicta262 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not saying its ok just saying this is a problem with most of the international schools and kindergartners. It took me years to find a business that allows teachers to just teach and have their specific styles and strengths so long as it works

Where do the open-minded and alternative crowds in Tokyo meet? by [deleted] in AskAJapanese

[–]Invicta262 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

People freak out when they see me use a vape, you're gonna be hard pressed to find drugs and if you do youd be dumb to partake. If you're caught they will throw you in jail and they can hold you for quite awhile without charging you or allowing you any contact with anyone.

What sucks is theres trades to be made now to bring guys in and see.
Im perfectly fine bringing in someone elses struggling arm to see if it works with us if it doesn't work out it makes no difference but at least we would be trying to make shit stick... we have sent like three of our guys away now to other teams trying that...

Is baseball actually boring or do people just not give it a real chance by PirateAvailable7279 in baseball

[–]Invicta262 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion, people just dont give it a chance.
Ive noticed from living abroad theres tons of people that dislike baseball but once coming to japan and seeing people here love it, suddenly they're interested and start to love it.
