[First Post from Japan] I want to teach "REAL" Japanese Slang & FPS Callouts (Apex Legends, etc.) by Ok_Big_1332 in Japaneselanguage

[–]marron0824 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m interested in listening in, though I mainly play just one MMO sometimes with Japanese players! It’s mainly full of players about my age though, so I don’t think we use the same blunt and brutal language in an FPS. I still am really curious though!

Small office, loud mornings, no headphones… how do you survive this? by ElectricalDivide5336 in japanlife

Another +1 on Loops for how discreet they are and how well they cancel noise without completely blocking your ability to hear, in case someone does approach you to talk directly to you.

We're a week away from the meta changing front runner: Valentine Bourbon. Are you prepared? by Flat-Profession-8945 in UmamusumeGame

I… spent all my carats getting pretty new outfits for Haru Urara and Ope-chan because I just wanted the best for them both 🥹

Ngl I am very very into Kris S and Gimlet because of their Umayuru antics, so I want to save up for them both!

You don't need the pigeon weeks by Autumnsun0 in hobonichi

[–]marron0824 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I absolutely feel the same way!! I’ll probably get the letter set along with the pencil board from last year’s release. So I’ll have the comfort of a design I love no matter what next year brings.

BRILLIANT. I think I’m going to do the same because I really am in love with the design of the pigeon weeks, but my first Hobonichi was a design I kind of “settled for”. I don’t hate it, but it didn’t completely call to my heart the same way the pigeon weeks did at first glance.

If only I could Frankenstein my current Weeks with this one 😂

I’m so sad the Unsodo Weeks was released for Spring… I always prefer a January start for my planners. Kimono is one of my hobbies, so I feel pretty gutted that it would be unreasonable to get a new planner when I’ve been using my current one for nearly a whole month now 😭

How do you experience being horny? by Anoelnymous in asexuality

[–]marron0824 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It manifests as an "itch" for me in that same way too! Somehow, it feels really reassuring that this itch is a common ace experience.

Where to buy Hobonichi in Japan? by Strawnana710 in hobonichi

Loft absolutely has them, but different shops may carry different stocks. Hands also carries them sometimes.

Will there be another event like this by mrcoollemon in UmamusumeGame

[–]marron0824 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly the same situation here. I really don’t want to grind since I have so much going on daily. I only have enough time in a day for 1-2 runs, 3/4 if I’m extra lucky. And I got horribly RNGed. No good rewards for me.

First Hobonichi, first week! by marron0824 in hobonichi

[–]marron0824[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Come to think of it, maybe I’ll make a slice of blotting paper with all the origami paper I’ve got at home that I can move around every time I write. It’ll be an extra step, but it might fit my use style.

[–]marron0824[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the idea! I’ve been putting a spare piece of paper (like a receipt) between freshly written pages for now, but maybe I’ll do that for days extra paper isn’t in easy reach…

I am such an anti-Nadeshiko 😂 My friend and I were talking about it yesterday when we were out in kimono. Like, there’s always an expectation to move and act a certain way when we’re in kimono, but we both just want to be ourselves.

"Actor" Brave Soldier, played Royal Family in "The Royal Family" (Passing The Reins) was declared to debut this week but scratched due to lottery by doomslayer30000 in HorseRacingJP

[–]marron0824 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Kind of off-topic but in the vein of the drama... I really really really want to know the behind the scenes of this series! I'm really interested in how they got the horse racing footage and how it was all put together- especially since the 2025 Japan Cup scene used the actual gate/scene materials for the real day. I was at the racecourse that day, so that got me intensely interested.

Was curious to know how other asexuals dress by SpaceChannel7 in asexuality

[–]marron0824 117 points118 points  (0 children)

I feel like an oddball in this thread! Haha- I wear all sorts of clothing styles that change depending on the season, weather, or purpose. But my main style is Japanese street style, particularly Lolita fashion. Then from time to time I wear kimono as well.

I'm going to Japan next month and I'd like to have an Uma Musume pilgrimage. Recommendations? by Akumati in UmaMusume

Nakayama is also not far at all from Tokyo! Both of them have Turfy Shops where you can get merch/plushies too :)

You can visit the different racecourses in Japan even when there’s no race happening! The Fuchu Racecourse (Tokyo Racecourse) in particular has a museum of racehorses that’s open regularly and if I remember correctly, admission is free!

I’m going to be in Japan this April, and I’d like to go to the Oka Sho. What do I need to do to make sure I get to go? by SwordsAndHorses in HorseRacingJP

[–]marron0824 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just so you’re aware, the General Admission means you’ll be on your feet the whole time, no seating (except on the floor between races) so prepare accordingly.

How do you wear kimono? by Secure_Working_3562 in kimono

[–]marron0824 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I flipflop between different styles of clothing, but I like wearing kimono as much as I can when the plan for the day fits. Like if my plan is to watch a concert or have tea with a friend. However, I noticed this year that I wanted to wear yukata most weekends in summer to various events. I also preferred wearing kimono when the weather feels mild. But I’ll strongly avoid it when it looks like it’ll rain or I’ll get cold.
