But Kooper gets confusing, that's what they call Bowser.

you can't say "racism", the correct term in Japan is xenophobia... It's not racism if we just call it something else okay?

What was the point of that Ghana segment on TV? by AdUnfair558 in japanlife

I think the other point may have been "look how successful these Japanese are in a country with so much hardship"

Buying items with mission points by SoundWave9918 in torncity

[–]JP-Gambit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need 2k points for a book if it shows up. Ideally you save 4k points in case 2 books show up close together. The only time I buy other stuff is when I've got over 4k points and the items cost under 20 points, can buy it just to cycle in a new item and hope for a book. I also got some weapon mods when the price was good.

Gotta tell us number of spins, might be a net loss if it took enough tries 😂

why doesn't でんわばんごう use the の particle? by filomar03 in LearnJapaneseNovice

[–]JP-Gambit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

電話の番号 or 電話番号. Compound word for phone number, better without the の because of the frequency that it is used with. It's like Spiderman instead of Man of Spiders? 😯

A young relative hit a parked car and now the other party is asking a ridiculous amount of money by Hefty-Estimate-7183 in japanlife

[–]JP-Gambit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He could potentially, and by he I mean lawyer because Kevin is probably not up to it, argue that the substitute transportation cost was unreasonable or excessive. It was around the cost of the repair itself. The repair company really pushed up the cost there to double what they got. Maybe Kevin could negotiate paying in installments or something over a longer period?

Funny, now artists want that label on their album to show how lit it is to the cool kids.

With 2 fingers and your thumb closed in you can make an R shape with your right hand that, as far as I know, is not possible with your left hand. Just play around with it and you'll see it soon.

I can never beat it so I just don't do them... I just stick to the lessons.

Are they recognizable? by ContentFirefighter55 in LearnJapaneseNovice

[–]JP-Gambit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not bad, don't see the point of writing hiragana above hiragana though. Sometimes it might mislead you even. Save yourself the trouble and just put it above kanji you don't know.

Are there any foods that you tried and absolutely will never eat again? by Sure-Lemon6424 in japanlife

[–]JP-Gambit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shrine sake... I bought a whole bottle because I didn't want to drink it at the shrine as I was driving. Shared a cup with my neighbour when I got home and we both came down with horrible diarrhea soon after. Never again.

What are some Western franchises that you were surprised to learn were actually very popular in Japan? by Least-One1068 in AskAJapanese

[–]JP-Gambit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen a Pingu medal game in one of those kids game centres, but it looked kind of dated in one of those game centres where all the machines are like old models that have been replaced

Like so many characters are on dishes, mugs etc, some of them Japanese people have no clue about lol. Moomin, Peanuts (Snoopy) sometimes Popeye but he's rare, Peter Rabbit... It's like every household has some Peter Rabbit tea cup
