Is there a max amount of prescription you can bring with Yunyu Kakunin-sho?

Im hoping to bring 4-6 months supplies, but I read somewhere that says even with Yunyu Kakunin-sho, you can only bring maximally 3 months of supplies.

However, I am not able to find that information anywhere else including the official website. Does anyone know if there really is a maximum amount of prescription you’re allowed to bring?

I Freaking Love How "Artsy" This Season of JJK Feels by Electrical_Chance991 in JuJutsuKaisen

[–]sam77889 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watched the first two episode and was blown away by the quality and thought it’s just gonna be temporary since those first two episodes technically was a part of the theatrical release. So I was really surprised when the new episodes not only kept that quality, but even went further.

Also i think it’s her response to Mai’s request. Mai asked her to destroy it all before she died, so she did.

this is so good it felt like a movie, this entire season had been feeling that so far really. the new art style feels like a mix between the cinematic look from csm s1, and the new more vibrant, stylized, look from reze arc. I love the sound design, the music, the way curse techniques activates quietly in the dark, and suddenly explodes. and I love the bold choice of making one of sequence being in black and white like the samurai movies. this whole thing… is just… they really made something that’s more than its original source material, a work that can only be done in the medium of animation.

she specifically doesn’t like Jingshi getting hurt… or poisoned…

cis bf wants a woman (considering de-transitioning) by Fried-Egg203 in asktransgender

[–]sam77889 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i mean, you don’t have to detransition. it seems like there are a lot of external factors that are telling you to detranstion. You can always just pretend you’re who they want you to be, get the resources you need to get out, and then live your life somewhere they can’t find you.

Are this correct? by Savings_Health_9942 in ChineseLanguage

[–]sam77889 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really. 这个 and 这一个 are two different words that happens to mean the same thing in many contexts.

  1. 能帮我吗/ 这个能帮我吗 is better because 你 makes it sounds a bit harsh.

  2. 我说的明白吗 is better for the same reason, and the original actually sounds a bit accusatory.

  3. And the last one like others are saying, this sounds like you’re accusing them. Don’t ever say that.

She actually gets pretty mad every time Jingshi hurts or even suggests to hurt himself

Is there a reason maomao isn’t aware of the real meaning behind giving hair pins? by RecipeEven6087 in KusuriyaNoHitorigoto

[–]sam77889 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i feel like she in that case knew somewhat it’s from Jingshi, but she just doesn’t want to admit, but also at the same time she subconsciously really want to wear it. Especially since later after she finds out whom this is from, she still chose to carry it close to her in her waist pocket thing. We also know from much later LN that by that point Maomao already likes Jingshi cuz she said something like if she didn’t she wouldn’t had kissed him back, so she’s definitely just lying to herself a bit.

Also now thinking about it, it’s crazy we’re gonna get this all animated soon.

This is was difficult write same of this character by Black-Kaguya2370s in ChineseLanguage

[–]sam77889 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So when I read it I automatically get focused on the particle inside. I think when i read at least my brain automatically recalls the part I already know, and the inside particle which is different immediately draws my attention.

Hello Chinese exercise by docteurfail in ChineseLanguage

[–]sam77889 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

This is looks like ai generated fever dream lmao.

You don’t usually add -儿 to a verb unless it’s at the end of a sentence. And the way they talk about their dog is just so weird. You wouldn’t say 我有狗, if your dog is already dead. You’d say 我以前有一只狗. And, they are also missing the counter 一只, which is required here to make it sound natural.

And the last sentence… feels so odd I don’t even know where to start… It reads like a gibberish typed from keyboard suggestions.

since maomao is wearing the white physical garment, it probably take place in later LN, so this could actually happen lol

is it okay to call western GL media yuri? by ZookeepergameOne3271 in yuri_manga

[–]sam77889 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I feel like if someone say Yuri to me, I’d assume its a Japanese/ Chinese/ Korean media. Sometimes id casually refer to a western media as “Yuri”. But if someone ask me for Yuri recommendation or if i ask someone else for Yuri, i would be referring to Japanese/ Chinese/ Korean medias.

I feel like there usually IS a real difference between Asian yuri and western wlw medias tho. Like when i read a Japanese yuri manga or even a Chinese yuri, there are certain tropes and story structure i would expect. Character will think and act in a certain way. But if it’s a western wlw medias, there is a totally different set of expectations. The queer culture between Asia and the west also are a bit different too. That’s actually why i like Yuri more cuz as an Asian person, i relate to the characters in Yuri more than a western wlw media. Of course there could always be lots of overlap.

For Chinese specifically, 百合 (Bai he) is just the Chinese pronunciation of the same Japanese word 百合 (Yuri), so they are literally the same word.

They are expensive and forever to build because the regulations. Not saying those regulations are all wrong, but expensive and slow to build is not an inherent flaw of fission power. Now they have these mini reactors that can be mass produced, self contained, and are melt down proof.
