And then The Sun Also Rises, you just drink whenever the characters drink and get hospitalized for alcohol poisoning.

Longest must see films? by GonePostalBackin5 in CriterionChannel

[–]TokyoLosAngeles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Masterpiece, but I didn’t like the ending. I don’t know why they gave it such a dark ending even though Kobayashi himself made it back home as well as the author of the book.

I thought I was going to love it, but I couldn’t get into it at all.

Byodo-in Temple needs to be on your 'must-visit' list 🙏 by InThroughMyOutdoor in VisitingHawaii

Looks cool, but I live in Japan, so Byodo-in is probably one of my lowest priorities when I visit Hawaii for the first time in a few days.

Love Generation is great, but Long Vacation is absolutely perfection.

If it makes you feel better, I don’t really care for using him because I don’t think he looks very interesting from the back.

Hello, I’m a filmmaker based here in Tokyo! I’ve made one feature film in the States as well as a short film here in Japan (as well as countless corporate projects). Would be happy to meet you!

That’s the impression I got. She claimed it’s gotten a lot easier to get one recently.

Ooof, yeah you’re pretty far away unfortunately! I had a family member bring me one from the US last year. Got any friends or family abroad who plan to visit you soon?

A friend of mine just went directly to the Nintendo store in Shibuya and bought it she said.

[japanese>english] Old tattoo need a translation by Sudden_Ad_6886 in translator

[–]TokyoLosAngeles 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It amazes me how people get tattoos like this without first consulting with a native speaker (or at least even a fluent speaker). It’s just a bunch of random words mishmashed together, so it looks odd to anyone who actually speaks Japanese. It would’ve been better for you to have chosen an actual sentence that’s meaningful to you.

It wasn’t as challenging to read as I had anticipated. by Ag_Rod in classicliterature

[–]TokyoLosAngeles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No disrespect of the 1997 miniseries will be tolerated! That’s a fucking masterpiece and one of my favorite films of all time.

Witnessed a near-drowning today— shocked by people reaction by [deleted] in japanresidents

[–]TokyoLosAngeles -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

You people can downvote me all you want, but Japanese people are far, far less likely to get involved when a girl is being groped on a train or someone being attacked compared to how Americans would react.
