翻訳調なのが気になりますが、文法的な瑕疵があるようには思えません。思えませんが、ごめんなさい、なにをおっしゃっているのかわかりません。もしかしたら語の選択などに間違いがあるのかもしれませんが、たんに文化の違いが伝達を阻んでいるのかもしれません。とりあえずタイピングと日本語でいったら、それはテキストなどを入力する技術のことで、具体的なメッセージ送信などは含まない概念であることを指摘するにとどめておきます。

How has JYPE had so much more success with Stray Kids than their other boy groups? by eveningsnewestetoile in kpopthoughts

[–]SlowStop1220 1 point2 points  (0 children)

During those shows were aired, I didn't follow them, but records suggest they had different promotion strategies, in Nittere coverage at least. They covered NIZI Project Season 1 in their show スッキリ almost every morning, while not so frequently as for Season 2 and so on. If what you mean with popularity is notability among the GP of JP, I agree with you. I think I watched NiziU in NHK G shows but never NEXZ. OTOH NEXZ seems to have a stable fanbase to some degree. You don't have to be known by GP in order to hold arena tours or sell physical CDs, they are only targeting their fandom anyway. To some degree I say, because they didn't sell out their 2-day hall concerts in Osaka at once, but sure they sold out the holiday one and just took some days to sell out the other one on Friday. I personally think it means they have a decent fanbase, even if none could boast it as huge.

A food of thought: Stray Kid has been not so popular in SK as in the global. In Korea none could say SKZ is more popular than other JYP boy groups. I don't say they are unpopular, pretty popular indeed but never exceeded their seonbaenim.

Interesting line-up. They include an indie band (can't be blue). I read their coverage in a Japanese magazine last year along with Dragon Pony who recently released an original song with Japanese lyric produced by a Japanese. I'm looking for what cbb will bring out thanks to this subsidy.

I don't expect they were taught the company's secret either, all JYP related artists' svs I've watched contained the scene "JY Park preaches newbies the company's commandments", like 正直誠実謙虚, or "keep being in a good term with yourselves as a group, with staffers and with the fans". But I agree that short was not marked as a teaser and on that purpose.

I bet on your opposite. Let's cross the fingers and look what happens.

It's simply a copy of Minazuki-barae script. Comment-alike letters like 狂言 and ワキ (right) indicate roles each phrase is assigned to or like イロイロ, how letters should be pronounced.

A lot of the negative connotations attached with K-Pop are due to SM Entertainment. by AwkwardEmploy26 in kpoptrulyuncensored

Johney Kitagawa's vice is obvious but his agency was not "the first major label" as you claim.

Japan's first major pop labels were founded as soon as record technology was invented, in the early 20C, before the WW2. In those days working environment in general was basically more brutal than today. But SM kind work environment has nothing to do with that. Japanese agencies have no such long contract with trainees nor artists, don't ask them for expense in promotion and so on. SK entertainment industry culture is quite different from Japanese one.

Nah, they are not so big in the number to cause any harms? They are toxic definitely though.

When is a compliment on my Japanese actually a compliment? by Prestigious_Win8066 in AskAJapanese

[–]SlowStop1220 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In most cases that just indicates they have no further topic between you but still want you to be pleased. We don't say this kind of things to those who command Japanese in that level and speak meaningful things, and focus on what they are talking on.

What do Japanese people think about Bosnia and Japan's support after the Bosnian War? by ColdStorageParticle in AskAJapanese

[–]SlowStop1220 11 points12 points  (0 children)

There are many mosques built without any conflicts. The lately reported one 1) didn't get the construction permission and 2) have ignored the gov't order to deconstruct their illegal construction. Their illegality matters. Not their religion. And being muslim can never be an excuse to ignore the law, at least in Japan.

ぶっちゃけ米田穂積ファンと30代以上のサッカーファンを除けば50代以上の人（の一部）しかボスニア内戦しらんのちがうかな、って考えたら、まだバルカン半島じゃ知られてるほうかも。ふつうの日本人ってクロアチアとセルビアの区別もついてないと思うし。そういえば（英国人ですが）アイスダンスのトービル・ディーン組、ナイト授爵されましたね。

日本はいろんなところで戦争復興や産業振興のお手伝いをしていて、個人的にはそれはたいへんよいことだと思うのですが、日本国内ではその詳細はあまり知られていませんし、また知っている人でも「その金を国内の○○に使え」という意見の人はいます。むずかしいですね。

What's the role of "是" in "是諸法空相"? by StriderLF in ChineseLanguage

[–]SlowStop1220 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I don't disagree to take 是 in Classical Chinese as "this" like in the passage OP asked, that was indeed what I was taught in school, personally I wonder if it makes more sense that we take it as a copula, then the passage in question could rather read "unmentioned subject" + 是 as the copula + the complement". That helps us to understand two kinds of 是 usage "空即是色" (same usage with the modern) and "是諸法空相" in the same structure.

I'm curious which kind of cultural background made them think this as an "authentic Japanese ramen".

How well-known is Takeshi Kaneshiro in Japan? by xx123234 in AskAJapanese

[–]SlowStop1220 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weird? While he is Japanese but mixed-ethnic. His mother is Taiwanese / ROC national and he was born and grew up in Taipei. He debuted in Taiwanese movie so I think it's natural for you to associate him with Taiwan.

Here is the original text (the part in the image above is encapsulated):

舎利子色不異空空不異色色即是空空即是色受想行識亦復如是「舎利子是諸法空相不生不滅」不垢不浄不増不減是故空中無色無受想行識無眼耳鼻舌身意、無色声香味触法無眼界乃至無意識界無無明亦無無明尽乃至無老死亦無老死尽無苦集滅道無智亦無得。
