Japan

I just moved to Okinawa a few weeks ago and I don't know what to do or where to go have some fun, especially at night. To the people who have been here, can you tell me some places or things I can do on this small Island?

I've been wondering for long time, but here in the states, if you tell the staff at KFC or deli section of the supermarket that you want a piece of chicken breast, they DO know what you want.
But in Japan, they have no clue what chicken breast or thigh is.
Even the manager of KFC doesn't know sometimes...

Why do you think they really don't care about it??

We want to go around June 2008 preferably in time to go to the Changu Changu Umako horse festival. We are also major anime/ manga buffs so we want to visit places relating. We are also on a very strict budget, meaning we need the cheapest possible things but they still need to be great quality. We need help planning and we do not know where to begin. can anyone please help. We are trying to stay away from tour groups, considering they are expencive and most likely will not cover all we want to do. We also plan to stay about 2 possibly 3 weeks.

Can someone who has the time, describe to me what a rich teenage girl dresses like in Japan. I don't want an answer like, "they dress like any other rich girl". I would like to know the designer brands they wear, hair and make up, nails, handbags and perfumes among other stuff such as the cars they drive and their lifestyles. Do they dress and behave like spoilt rich american girls?

explaining how different members of the elite (samurai, ex-samurai, daimyo) in Japan understood or conceptualized the transformation that Japan underwent from the late-1850s through the 1880s or how conceptualizations of this transformation changed over that period.

And I also have to make an argument .

hi, my relatives and i intend to go on a trip to japan. however, my family has been to tokyo and hokkaido, where i myself have been to kanazawa and miyazaki, on top of the above two.

is there anywhere in japan worth going? we prefer to look at scenery and do activities rather than to look at buildings. ^-^ is there anywhere in japan that's a must-see besides these?

I feel embarassed and usually I just let it slide. Usually they're being proud about knowing the word, so I don't want to hurt their feelings.

Some of them say it so blatantly wrong though, really stressing the "MAN" part: roMANji.

It's kind of surprising how many people find that "n" that's not in the word "romaji". Sort of like how so many people say "sherbert" instead of "sherbet". That mysterious "r" that appears for the illiterate.

It sort of reminds me of the people who write "definately" instead of "definitely" in English.

Does inline skating have any popularity in the young crowd in japan (at all)? I'm going to go visit my grandmother down there in november for a year and I wanted to know If I could bring my rollerblades to ride around there. Would there be anyone riding blades or skating in general around there? I'm going to tokyo and she might bring me to visit my uncle who lives down in osaka so I wanted to know if skatings popular in those areas. And what areas are they popular in (if any)

1 more question. if I have a family member living over in japan and is a native member of the country, does that mean I still need some kind of visa to move over there for good. Cant I just move to the persons house since I have family over there? My grandmother wanted my to move over with her and the family she lives with for a long time and I want to too.

Thanks guys!

I have to say thank you at first.

The expats and foreign people in this section know about Japanese culture so much.
Not only J-pops, games, and animes, but also traditional and local cultures.
Such as, Acchi-muite-hoi, eating Okonomiyaki, on-line shopping malls, QR bar code, the various features of cell phones, information regarding Japanese TV personarities and TV programs, Enka songs, Ebihara Yuri, sub cultures, and various fashions in Japan, etc, etc.

I know some westerners are interested in East Asian traditional cultures and history always.
But the people in this section know Japanese local culture so much, more than traditional one, more than other Asian local cultures.
Why? What make you to do so?

Japan is just one of the Asian countries, isn't it? right?
