You know many answers of translation in Japanese is artless.
Still, people use online translator for answering question.

Is there anyone who knows what good it will do?

I'm going to Japan next week and flying in to Narita. I'm staying at my friend's house, which is pretty far from Tokyo. Before I go down there I want to spend a couple days around Tokyo, and I don't want to drag my luggage around.
So the question is--can I send my luggage ahead to her house using Kuroneko or something? Do they have a counter inside the airport, outside the airport. . .?
I know you can send your luggage TO the airport, so I assume you could send it from the airport as well. . .but does anyone have any details? Thank you!

I think its Matcha Milk?

What's your favorite KitKat flavor? What about any other favorite candy/sweets found only in Japan?

I saw this question in "Yahoo!Answer" category.

And I noticed many people here in Japan category give thumbs down for reasonable answers too.
So I'd like to know why...

I want to know how Asian tourists are treated from Western tourists in Japan. Are Asian tourists treated differently? If so, how? Are the locals both helpful and understanding to both? Please, I want honest answers. The last answer I want are politically correct answers.

Japan is now introducing a "jury" system, though it actually seems more like extending the 3 judge panel system by adding regular citizens (unlike for example in the U.S. when the jurors are separate deciders from the judge who kind of umpires the process)

I'm sure someone else has probably asked this as well, but I have noticed it too. Why when we see another foreigner in Japan do we ignore each other?

Granted, I live on a military base so my situation is different than say an english teacher or company worker who comes over here, but when I am no where near a base and see another foreigner, its like we both go out of the way to avoid each other. I can admit I do it too. But I usually don't think about it until afterwards.

I have been in this situation numerous times, and I feel guilty afterwards, like I should have made an effort to say hello, and wonder if they thought the same thing. What is your opinion on this?

My wife and 2 kids are arriving in Narita at 16000 hrs and fluying on the next day at 1700 hrs. Is it worth travelling down town to stay overnight, or should we aim to stay local to the airport ?

I've noticed that certain posters here will get thumbs downs, no matter how good their answers or questions are.

I'm guessing at least one thumb-downer is that guy who always complains about being black in Japan, with his eternal chip on his shoulder.

Thoughts?

My theory on why Japan is so advanced technologically is because after the atomic bomb was dropped on hiroshima japanese people were alerted that other countries had technology to develop weapons that destroy entire cities and decided push their education harder to move ahead technologically as a kneejerk response for survival.

I know that in places like Britain there are many races and religions these days. Britain used to be almost all white and Christian but that has changed. I was just wonderring whether Japan was like this also. Are there many races like white or black in Japan? Are there many religions like Islam or Christianity? I would assume that if there were that it would be mainly in Tokyo and not much in other parts in Japan though..

If Japan is multicultural then how multicultural is it? Would I get stared at?
