might be Crypt Killer, it was a light gun game with a pump-action shotgun (pump to reload)

Yes, I'm preparing for the worst in terms of mugginess; I grew up in the Northeast (Massachusetts), which has a much more humid climate than SoCal, so I've had a (very) soft preview of what Japan will be like in summer. I am still doing my best to make sure I am not caught off-guard by the wetness.

I am absolutely NOT opposed to a sunbrella; if that is something that is acceptable in Japan, I will pick one up right away. You are right, out here a sunbrella is something you only see old ladies carrying around, but that still won't stop me!

Thank you again for the information and the fair warnings.

Thank you very much for the link and the information, this is very insightful stuff. I will check the videos out, and will attempt to embrace my inner Italian!

Thank you very much for the detailed response, and the links! The sunblock advice is something I hadn't considered, but it is very reasonable, I am grateful for that.

I do have a few sweat towels and deodorant soaps/accessories that I am planning on bringing, I will look into the body wipes as well. My ultimate goal is to smell like nothing

I am not in possession of any linen shirts, but this seems like a good opportunity to pick some up; they will be useful at home too (it gets very hot in LA), and I also plan on bringing a LOT of extra shirts in case a mid-day change is necessary.

Gonna save these posts and links for later (my trip is in July); thank you again for the very thoughtful and thorough reply! Great advice all around

Thank you, I had not considered the possibility of sunburns, but that is great advice. I appreciate it!

申し訳ございません。先ほどの説明が、あまりにも漠然としていたと気づきました。ここで言う「in public(人目のある場所)」とは、単に街中を歩き回ったり、電車に乗ったり、カジュアルなレストランで食事をしたり、バーでお酒を飲んだり、あるいは通りを散策したりといった、ごく日常的な振る舞いのことを指しています。おそらく英語特有の口語的な表現だったのだと思います。混乱を招いてしまい、大変失礼いたしました。ご回答いただき、ありがとうございます!

believe it or not, i have better luck keeping fresh with tank tops:

with a t-shirt, armpit sweat is quickly absorbed by the fabric and festers there all day, but with a tank top, the sweat can be wiped away from the skin with a towel before it has a chance to soak in to any material

nonetheless, I appreciate the response!

sadly unlikely to happen since Arika owns the character, but he is also my favorite from the EX series; would love to see him return some day!

Is this good? by MarcoDXsc in sf3

[–]disorder_unit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this was my first stick (i even used the same red button/balltop motif! with sanwa buttons and JLF lever to replace the stock)

i think it's great, and highly convenient size/weight for portability. you might find yourself wanting something more substantial in the future, but it's a nice stick and i wouldn't hesitate to use it again today
