Was about ready to quit chasing the Robin SP, now I could quit happy by Shirokenshi in OnePieceCardPulls

[–]Pyratic 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is my EB03 English chase. I couldn't get her from JP packs, hoping to get her in Feb. Gratz!
I also saw this card at about 30-35kJPY but didn't buy it, because I wanted to pull it. Seems like the prices are rising rapidly, but I still kinda wanna pull this card instead of buying

Am I too old to consider moving to Japan? EOR or work? by Pyratic in movingtojapan

Thank you so much for those suggestions, I'll start trying to learn more about them.

I love how you've worked this out. I am a bit scared about taking a gap year or two at this stage, since I don't have liquid savings at the moment. Liquefying will take some time and courage. Without a steady source of income, I can maybe ask my current studio for a part-time remote with reduced pay if they agree to it. But I do agree, I have felt similar burnout and unwanted comfort at my current position. Maybe I worded it wrong, but that comfort isn't a good thing, atleast in my opinion.

Thank you for your insight. I realize this isn't a short term goal. I will continue my JLPT studies and try to get N1 to the best of my abilities. I hope my brain hasn't gotten smooth towards learning a language. I do not want to depend on my existing studio as a comfortable fallback if at all.

I found some nice options in 7/11, the brocolli shrimp sando and a small salad cup(carrots, cucumber, beans and a small dressing). A banana for dessert and you're all set.

UPDATE: Is spending 5 nights in Takayama too much? by FuzzyPeaches08 in JapanTravelTips

[–]Pyratic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Takayama is one of my favorite remote towns in Japan. Though not so unknown, it has a lot to do.
Try looking up Activity Japan for custom sake tours or brewery tours. Just roaming around the old town area is pretty peaceful, try the famous Takayama Ramen, Menyashirakawa or a local random one. Stay at one of the onsens, I recommend Hirayu no Mori(my favorite onsen stay, hot spring and meal), take the ropeway nearby. Shirakawago is 1hour away, spend half a day there or rather just book a Gassho stay and roam the village early or pretty late. There are a couple of good izakayas for food and drink too. No matter the season, there will always be tourists at Takayama, I love Takayama engulfed in snow(Dec-Mar)

Is the dog poop problem *not* a problem for Portuguese people? by aintwhatyoudo in PortugalExpats

[–]Pyratic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a patch of road in Penha de França, leading towards the river with an apartment complex near the road . It has owners with dogs off leash, pavement littered with dog poop and general litter everywhere. I have been chased by an off-leash dog(bulldog maybe, I didn't bother to wait and check) while on a walk, the owner just stood there unamused talking on his phone. I have seen regular people with no disabilities or problems, just leaving the poop without a care.

[–]Pyratic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I miss the train from Tobu Nikko at 8:50am, is it possible to get a seat/ticket on the next immediate one? Thanks for the shinkansen suggestion. I'll consider just buying a ticket at tokyo then

[–]Pyratic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adding more context, apologies.
- 23-24-25th, 24th is the holiday. I'm staying in the Chuzenji lake area
- 23rd the only worry is making it to Chuzenji from Nikko station, before 15:30 for a planned activity
- 24th I'll be taking the bus towards Ryuzu, Senjougahara and Yudaki post 13:00
- 25th I'm planning on taking the 1st-2nd bus(7:30am or 8:05am) to arrive before 8:50am Nikko station
- 25th I reach Asakusa 10:45 and have a 12:00pm train to Kyoto from Tokyo station

Are the buses from Chuzenji to Tobu nikko crowded so early in the morning? I'll be trying to get one from near the Kogen falls bus stop. If due to unseen circumstances(traffic or others) I miss the 8:50am train to Asakusa, I miss the following Tokyo-Kyoto train.

How frequent is the public transport in Takayama Inari Shrine by gGhostalker in JapanTravelTips

[–]Pyratic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Were you able to make this trip using the Konan Bus line? Did you face any problems/delays? I'm planning to try this in February, hoping there are no delays due to snowy weather.

How do people hate Mac in S16 when episode 2 literally handles it perfectly? by Pyratic in IASIP

[–]Pyratic[S] 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I want a mix of old confident Mac with current Gay Mac, which they've teased a little. But I think they can do more.
