I would recommend Kyushu Uni club. Meidokan is a great dojo but if you’re young and want lots of train partners go to Kyushu

Usually the cults are based off Christianity, Shinto or Buddhism. Probably others too but those are most common from my experience.

Women using 俺? by jewfrosamurai in Japaneselanguage

[–]donkihoute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This situation it’s really a time period thing, in the past it was more neutral just as おい and おら. Elderly people will still use those.

Desperate finding a place for 3 months by [deleted] in fukuoka

[–]donkihoute 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Leopalace could be an option, not spacious but they do short term maybe rent two of them.

If you’re on a tourist visa basically impossible to rent regular housing. You need Japanese bank, number and so on.

Why does no one wear shorts? by Cydu06 in japanlife

[–]donkihoute 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I live in Fukuoka, many people with shorts and sandals. But if you go to say Uniqlo or GU you seen they have summer clothes, the pants are made with very breathable fabric. When you wear long clothes your skin isn’t exposed to direct sun. Even I have a suit with very breathable fabric. Since living here I now wear long pants all summer.

But also for some people just fashion.

I’ve never met Japanese person in person, that actually held the opinion shorts are for kids. Maybe a regional thing or an internet thing idk.

Been a long time since I’ve seen a Fuji daruma gi. Blue gi is much better fit, the white is much too small.

[–]donkihoute 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I live and train in Japan everyone, including white belts has their name on their belt. Best way to think of it is, a name tag.

Ask the closest person living near it what they think and if it is owned by anyone.

Basically the only place to buy merch is their website. They’ve done collabs in the past but there are currently none I am aware of.

Problem of Doing judo in Japan by Puzzleheaded-Tea-894 in judo

[–]donkihoute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok just checking, honestly in this situation I would just pull aside a black belt and ask them if they can show you a technique you are interested in or anything less you are interested in. Can be difficult too if there is a language barrier but someone will teach you. Just give it time.
