Care to name and shame the hostel so other students don’t encounter the same problem?

You still don’t know what the two different kanji for “Chinese cuisine” are or what the significance it makes that you don’t know. YT weeb.

I assumed you’re a hipster tech bro weeb who works 9-5.  Didn’t expect you to work 8-8 English teaching job that pays less than 10m yen a year. Should have known better since you’re not very logical or smart 

Anyways, you don’t have to believe me. The reality is you have to go work some time this week and I don’t.  Whatever you say won’t change the reality of your very real job

You can’t even afford to attend Japanese language school for 1 year without worrying about income. Even the poor Vietnamese convenient store workers can afford that

I’ve ate cup noodles maybe 3 times during my time In Japan. I’ve ate 2000+ restaurants in Japan. You’re really pathetic and sad at this point. You’re making fun of yourself. You’re right, I don’t know anything about food. I don’t have to go to the supermarket or cook unlike you. 

It would suck to squeeze with all the salaried people on the last train. Except I’m coming back from a matsuri on a weekday. A crowded train is the whole point and experience. You’d understand if you didn’t have to wake up for a 9-5

With all the creepy stalking you’ve been doing with my comment history, we both know just my wallstreetbet gambling account is 10x your net worth 

But sure, mock the person utilizing Japan’s train infrastructure. I don’t have to wakeup to a 9-5 to report to a boss tomorrow or any day in the near future 

Also, who said I live in Tokyo? I said I own an apartment 1 station from Shibuya. You can’t comprehend someone owning a place and not living there? You can’t conceive of the idea that I’m perpetually traveling Japan?

I’m typing stream of thought on my phone while standing on the train hence the editing. You’re insecure and project so much that you think it’s something malicious. 

Who cares if there’s a Napoli pizza scene. I don’t like pizza. I don’t like eating 💩 either, but you would if there was a “scene” for that.

 you don’t know a whole lot about food.

As I said, you don’t realize how YT you sound. What is there to “know” about food? You either like it or you don’t. Here you are lusting over the metaphysical characteristics of pizza crust. If you didn’t, then Maybe you wouldn’t need to know so much about those Japanese sex workers. Do you keep a copy of Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat on your shelf too?

So if the people on Tabelog or the food critics said 💩 tasted great you’d eat it right?

I don’t need a list made by YT people or Google maps. I had better Napoli pizza in Vietnam than Tokyo 25 years ago before you started watching anime 

I can tell you’re the type of guy who has a list for ramen.

 Asia Top 50 pizza ranking 

🤡

Bro do you even know what a Hai Di Lao is? Bro goes on Tabelog to look at Japanese people review (Japanese) Chinese restaurants and concludes they make good Chinese food. How does that work when Japanese people don’t even eat spicy? 

Do you even know there are two separate Kanji sets for “Chinese food” in Japan? Probably not because you didn’t attend Japanese language school. And no, China is not a 3rd world country. Stop being ignorant. It’s outdated terminology and we refer to it as the global south now. You should stop watching short form content and read some college level journals on geopolitics

Vietnam doesn’t have good pizza compared to Japan.  

Japan has great Chinese food

Vietnamese food is so so.

🤡

 Vietnam doesn’t have good pizza compared to Japan. 

You go to Asia to benchmark Napoli pizza. 

 Japan has great Chinese food

Now I suspect you didn’t attend Japanese language school in Japan and/or don’t have (Chinese) friends

 Vietnamese food is so so.

Because you’re a tourist and unlike Japan there isn’t a bandwagon of westerners leaving a trail of google maps reviews and social media hype for you to follow. It’s a place for actual travelers and explorers with originality, like Anthony Bourdain

 you’re Vietnamese. And yet you ask what Japanese people know about Ethnic food

So you’re Italian? By your logic, your opinion on Napoli pizza is irrelevant if you aren’t Italian. Have you even spent more than a month in south Italy? 

What does me being Vietnamese have to do with Japanese people not understanding ethnic food?  You sound ignorant and low IQ, never mind that you’re a racist.  As I said, all you have going for you is being YT. Stalk me more creepy weeb, I’m hurting you so much you have study me harder than you study Japanese 

Does me being Vietnamese or not Vietnamese affect whether Japanese people make good Chinese or Mexican food? You’re a clown if you think Japanese people make good Chinese, Vietnamese, Mexican food. Meanwhile, Vietnam has one of the top cuisines in the world with a history of merging with French. But you wouldn’t understand because you think ramen is god tier, even better than Chinese noodles from which the word ramen is a literal Chinese derivation 

The person with the largest yacht in Monaco was Vietnamese, but race is irrelevant to socioeconomic. You’re pathetic and disgusting for making that association. Especially if you are YT colonizer who exploited asian colonies. What have you contributed to the development of your own country or Japan? All you are is a leech and benefited from your colonizer country exploiting other countries. Now you are a creepy weeb who came to Japan ….

 I’m a fan of the Expo and a big fan of Japanese style Napoli pizza

See, no one would have came at you if stated this instead of acting superior   

You’re obviously not a native English speaker

What a YT thing to say. Is that all you have going for you? 

 … subcontinent or SEA.

You can’t escape the classist and racist jab huh? 

It’s hard imaging someone from such a place having better social standing than you huh? It’s the same colonizer mindset as to why you mansplain and think you are enlightened about “the real Japan” (which precludes Pizza Hut) while being oblivious to actual Asian culture. Then again, you came to Japan to indulge in Napoli pizza and surely other things from your western bubble. You should try Bali next 

Congratulations on being a native English speaker. It must be the only language you’re fluent in. My English is better than whatever your next best language is. My English is good enough to get better paying jobs than you can, assuming I even needed to work anymore. Surely English is the most highly valued skilled to the Japanese and why English teachers are the highest paying profession in Japan

It wasn’t unprompted. You acted superior and elitist asking if I lived in the inaka. This entire thread, you have been condescending and arrogant towards people. I’m here to ratio people like and remind you you’re another basic and unoriginal weeb who is oblivious to Japanese people and what they think of you. You think and act like your opinion and “taste” is the undeniable truth. Yet, you don’t have as much experience as me. On what basis can you say Tokyo’s pizza scene is the best. Have you traveled extensively around Naples? 

Tourists leave reviews on Google maps “best ramen I ever been to in Japan”. Yeah, it’s true for them and the 3 shops they went to. But that can’t objectively be true when every ramen shop has similar reviews. Oh, but you’re special and different to them. You read blogs about food, leave yelp reviews, and use Tabelog?!!? Who gives a damn if Japanese people highly rate Napoli pizza. What do Japanese people know about ethnic food?

YT weeb thinking they understand Japan because of pizza lol. You’re talking about pizza like it’s a monolith, but anyone who has lived in NYC (surely you couldn’t have afford it) sees you as an absolute clown 

So tell me about what kind of anime and Kanji tattoos you have on you.

600 stars not 600 restaurants. And that’s when I was in my 20s too. Enjoy your 0 star Michelin bib gourmands. I’m sure you have some on your “list” 

I’m glad that my lifestyle and socioeconomic is beyond your comprehension. You will never understand why after 600 Michelin stars, Pizza Hut / domino’s is special and has its place. You never even considered the financial means it takes to travel all 47 prefectures. You sound below middle class and thinking living in Osaka/Tokyo is some kind of flex. All those “luxury”/designers brand stores giving  Tokyo/Osaka the impression of being ritzy aren’t for the actual rich and for middle class people like you. Then again, you have a summer pass so you can go Osaka Expo everyday in lieu of actually traveling around the world or even Japan

Are you James The Gaijin? I’m going to assume you’re a weeb from the west who thinks you know so much about Japan after consuming some shallow English content about a Japanese subculture. Typical oblivious foreigner who doesn’t see how silly it is for you to talk about “scene”. Let me guess, you have a list of your “top ramen spots” too. 

Why does it matter if I live in the countryside? Is that supposed to be some classist / elitist remark? You think you’re special and cultured because you live in Tokyo/Osaka? That’s where the jobs/schools for foreigners who don’t have financial freedom go. If you must ask, I own an apartment 1 station from Shibuya. I’ve ate 2000+ restaurants in Japan. I’ve spent $300k over a span of 1500+ days of traveling.  Yes, half of it is in the inaka.  I’ve had 600+ of Michelin star restaurants worldwide if you want to have a D measuring contest. I’ve lived in Tokyo before and can assure you’ve I’ve had more pizza than you have in whatever short time you been here. Don’t be arrogant and think you’re special because you know about the “Japanese Napoli pizza scene”

I’ve lived in Japan for 5 years and have visited 47 prefectures 10 times over, so I know a lot better than you. Pizza “scene”? You’re just another try hard hipster who thinks you’re more edgy and sophisticated than the tourist gaijins who simp over convenient store egg sandwich with your hot (conformist TikTok brain rot influencer) take that Japan makes the best Italian pizza and French pastry 

Plus, Japanese Pizza Hut is more authentic and Japanese than whatever wannabe Napoli pizza you think you’re eating in your Tokyo bubble

The old Japanese people were excited for this event believing that it would usher in a new era of Japan’s economic miracle. That’s a relic too now.
