first for anri
Starting today, Japan enters a nine-day holiday period over the New Year, so large crowds are expected at tourist spots everywhere. Shrines and temples in particular are expected to be extremely crowded, so it's best to avoid them. However, with the sharp decline in Chinese tourists, you should be able to enjoy a slightly more pleasant atmosphere at any tourist destination.

>>2851264Im gonna miss those yelling bastards
Can I smoke weed outside in Japan?If I tell everyone I ONLY SPEAK ENGLISH PLEASE SPEAK ENGLISH loudly before talking to them and only speak in fluent fast English and insist they translate everything for me, will they be mad?
>>2851285Get out, troll!
>>2851285>can i smoke weed outsideYes>will they be mad if I tell them ONLY ENGISH PLEASENo
Ohhh great masters of jpg, I come with great honor and respect, and I must request great wisdom from great masters such as yourselves if it would please. Why do ((JET)) get such a bad rep in this general? Thank you for the words of wisdom
Why isn't Japan more thankful for our tourism money?
>>2851417Expat, I dont think I've ever met a JET/ALT expect maybe once.Its just a low entry job with shit pay and hours that attracts alot of the Japanese glazers weebs. That and they routinely fuck their underageb& students to the point where its a running meme the real reason they are there is to increase birth rates. Some also have this really lanky/AIDS looking phenotype but I attribute that to poor nutrition and not cooking at home.Shit posting aside its actually not that bad, they do infact get slightly more than other post college entry level Japanese. Its just ultimately a dead end job that the Japanese themselves need to revamp becuase they are terrible themselves with ALT.
>>2851425>they routinely fuck their underageb& studentsI've heard memes about this but never stories about it actually being true. At the very least, they get reported very quickly once word gets around about this.
>>2851285yes some will be mad. wouldn't you be mad if a spic told you to speak spanish?
Is 50 bucks a day (and the JPY equivalent) enough for a food budget? Assume an average diet and no Michelin-tier eateries.
>>2851433Yes that's enough. Even 30 is enough though you won't get anything fancy.
>>2851418I mean they are... kinda. It just the usual tourist spots that get overwhelmed.I'm not a tourist and take trips to country alot even in winter. You can tell the locals really are grateful considering how stressed these places got during covid.
>>2851433Even at high-end restaurants, tempura rice bowls cost $10 to $20.
I'm planning a six day stint in Tokyo, with a three day stint after going out west for a week or so. Is this too much time for the city?
>>2851433you can do fine with 15 if you eat at conbini
>>2851459If you love city life and have a strong curiosity, that amount of time won't be nearly enough.
Do I need an onward flight for japan?
>>2851433>>2851460Prepared meals at Japanese grocery stores are much cheaper than prepared meals at Japanese convenience stores. Remember that convenience stores prioritize convenience rather than discounts or savings.
>>2851468If you only eat out or rely on bento boxes, your nutrition will inevitably become unbalanced (lacking vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber, etc.). That's why you should buy prepared foods, vegetable salads, fruits, and so on at the supermarket to balance your nutrition, right?
>>2851463Do you want to save on airfare? or do you want to take a break during a long flight?
>>2851481I just might, what are you suggesting here?
>>2851481No they're an illegal immigrant.
>>2851459I dunno how people can only spend a week or two in Japan.I spent three months there and it still didnt feel like enough. Going again for three months in May
>>2851492Some people have jobs.
>>2851483it is cheaper to pick flights with stops. Usually the longer it takes to get you to your destination the cheaper your ticket becomes but you will have to sleep in airports like a hobo to save some dollars.You can also save by using 2 different airlines
if you die in japan do you die in real life
>>2851495There is also the added thrill that your checked baggage might get lost.
>>2851502assuming hobos have luggage
>>2851239What is the name of the old school arcade in tokyo? In Akihabara
>>2851504What is the name of the clothing store in Shibuya?
>>2851506I found it, it was actually in ShinjukuTakadanobaba Mikado Game Center. Great place, would visit again.高田馬場ゲーセン ミカド in オアシスプラザ
>>2851500If that means I am reborn as Japanese then so be it. >>2851502>checked baggageare you a woman? You just need 4 changes of clothes which perfectly fit as hand equipment. Paying the coin laundries in japan for a month is still cheaper than paying for checked baggage.
have the 'stand on both sides / no walking' on escalators nazis taken over? or can you still pass on the right?
>>2851515It's a conspiracy by big faggot to clog the escalator fast lane I hate it becuase it ruins beautiful and orderly two lane cultures and it only takes one retarded worthless genxer to stop everyone else dead.Depends on the place and time of day though, also Osaka has passes on the left.
>>2851512What kind of long-haul flight does not include at least one piece of checked baggage?
>>2851531zip air
conversation i had yesterday at a shoe store>i'm sorry, we don't have these in your size"that's ok. thank you for looking">wow your japanese is really good. where are you from?"the united states">e? unito..."america">eh, maji de, america?"yes">but you are so... white"huh?">my image is... american... brown skinmade me laugh out loud. i love these politically incorrect fuckers like you wouldn't believe
