The Superdeep Borehole / Re: The Japan Thread

I hear you. Some stuff here just doesn't accommodate us.

I can only buy pants outside Japan. I've bought UNIQLO jeans that fit my thighs, and even with my august belly, the beltline swims. Anything that fits my waist doesn't fit my ass or thighs.

A fan translation for Princess Crown is out. Never played it but in 2007 people hyped it up when Odin Sphere released.

Been playing this, streamed it a couple times. It's fine... about as enjoyable as Odin Sphere was (take that how you will)

Getting into which tourist is worse is a whole discussion. But I will say, the Euro or general western tourists… please confiscate their body spray and cheap cologne at the border. The foul cloud from gassing themselves forms a 15ft barrier around them. I’ve seen people plug their noses or hang back on an escalator.

Side note: if I ever stay here long term, I’m gonna find a way to import my mattress from America. Goes back to the broad shoulders and bigger butt thing. Even on my soft mattress, I don’t sink enough for support. I tried the various import brands and they naturally still cater to a Japanese market of wanting firm mattresses. One of the few things I’m homesick for.

Yuuuuup.

I used to go to Namba frequently for fun. It was like Akiba but "undiscovered" in the same way that no-one really targeted Osaka, and instead favored Tokyo.

Those days are over. Umeda/Osaka are absolutely crawling with tourists, and Namba has a massive foreign presence now. There are plenty of mainland asian tourists, but the caucasian crowd is readily visible, and frequently have their privilege pealing off them like curls of smoke.

Prices are up. Hard to get in anywhere to eat or drink. Locals' manners are spiralling down to match the "guests' manners" It's significantly less fun than it used to be.
