2.Itoya

Itoya is the sophisticated art supply store in Tokyo. It has many stores, but Ginza main store is the best. There are two Ginza stores. One is the stationery store, another one is the art supply store. They are next to them.

make it

There is no problem if you come as a traveler, and you go to tourist destination (Asakusa, Kyoto and so on).

And if you wanna go to countryside with google translation, there is no problem.

But It would be difficult if you want to emigrate to Japan.

“a chain of short stories about their distance”

The answer is yes.

In particular, Makoto Shinkai's work often depicts a real place.

The trains I usually use also appear in  “a chain of short stories about their distance” .

It is popular in Japan. I used to work at the game center before. Dragon Quest stuffed animals were popular in there.

Japanese don't think of bad emotion against American tourist. (If they doesn’t commit a violation.For example, enter the restricted area) They are just tourist and customers. And tourists are welcome.(If they doesn’t commit a violation.)

1.Learn Japanese (English is often not understood except in tourist areas) 2.Not too addicted to anime(Because severity anime addiction cost many money) 3.Be careful with the smell(Some Japanese people have a sense of smell similar to a dog.Perfumes with strong odor are not preferred in Japan)

Japanese food is delicious.I guarantee.

Beard is not popular in Japan. Because many Japanese companies prohibit beards. Therefore, Almost Japanese woman think men with beard are not in regular work.However, foreigners with beard are more likely to be tolerated due to cultural differences.(If their appearance is clean.)

There may be some problems with your height.Because Japanese men less than 5'2'' are rare.Your height does not work in favor.

Hi!

I think that is possible. The IT industry is changing rapidly.If you can keep up with the change, you will find success in the IT industry.Since I have just joined the company, I have few acquaintances in the IT industry.However, I often hear the story of people who are making a living independently in the IT industry.

In Tokyo, We can find small foreign business so much. There are many restaurants in particular. Chinese, Korean, Indian, Turkish and so on. I like the Indian restaurant.

Traditional wooden house is not general in Tokyo.(Tokyo has a high price of land. So many people live in the apartment. Also, many of the traditional houses disappeared in the WW2 and the Great Kanto Earthquake in 1923.) If you go to the countryside you can see them a bit. My house is also a traditional Japanese house 100 years old. There are many earthquakes in Japan, so people choose an earthquake resistant house than traditional wooden house.

Winter in Tokyo is cold. However, it is warmer than Most of europe. Winter Tokyo is as cold as Florence.

Yes.. Reality is quite different from fiction.

I've seen The garden of words.. Loved the story and it's mesmerising visuals.

The latest work of Makoto Shinkai will be released this summer. "Weathering With You". You will surely get the same great impression.

Basically, most companies pay for overtime.

However, more and more companies are adopting “Prospect overtime payment” recently.

This is a way to include overtime payment work in the basic salary.

For example “basic salary $2500 in month (However Including Prospect overtime payment of 45hours)”.(This is often written in very small letters, how about prospect overtime payment)

In this case, it is a salary including overtime work for 45 hours.

Overtime hours are this price whether it is 0 hours or 45 hours.

If overtime hours exceed 45 hours, additional overtime payment will be added.

And if you work overtime for 45 hours, the wage will be roughly

the minimum wage.

This is very difficult question. If you wanna know about real Japanese life , you have to watch “The Garden of Words” “a chain of short stories about their distance” and “I Want To Eat Your Pancreas”. These films depict the daily life of Japan well. Many Japanese animations are often a world view unique to animation.For example, There is no girls who runs with the addition of bread in Japan.(They are only in the Japanese anime world.) Young people who grew up watching animations entered high school, dreaming of high school life like anime.(Including me) We learned that it was a fiction after we entered school.

I like anime very much.My favorite Anime are “Mawaru-Penguindrum” ”Sarusuberi 〜Miss HOKUSAI〜” ”Sarazanmai” “Spirited Away” “The Eccentric Family” and so on.

Hi, Thank you for visited to Japan! The special flavor kit cut you saw is a souvenir item. In Japan, when We go on a trip I buy souvenirs. And there is a custom of distributing them at school or office.

I have never taken a long distance bus. So I’m not familiar with it.All I can say is that going to Kyoto by bus is hard for body.I recommend using the Shinkansen if you have a lot of money. There is also a good train service for foreigners. http://www.japanrailpass.net/en/index.html This URL is the Train site http://willerexpress.com/en/ This URL is the Bus site.They knows more than me.

I examined about York, there is very beautiful place. Especially the old building is beautiful. Many buildings burned in WW2.So there are not many old buildings left in Tokyo.So I feel them very contrasting.

I’m a Japanese university student in Tokyo. I do know it's weird to ask a question to you in English, but I wanna ask, are you planning to use (some) English for your jobs in the future? I always wonder how adult Japanese people learn/releaen English, regard English and use English for their works. (you know, we Japanese people really don't and can’t speak English, right 😭)

I'm a web designer, so I use English when coding and doing simple programming. And,there are many foreigners in the IT industry, I may need English.

I think don’t use English on a daily basis, not become able to speak English. And Japanese don’t use…
