No need to tip in Japan. Actually, do NOT tip anywhere in Japan even if you want to look nice. Some will consider it an offense, some will think you just forgot money and will go running after you to return it. Don't bother. This applies for everything (restaurants, hotels, taxis.... even soaplands)

I have not, and do not intend to do so. it can be harmful, you're going to make your prostate explode! besides, spending two straight hours jacking off at JAV/porn seems to me like a big waste of time! but that's just me....

That should be Asahi Glass, right? I work for Toyota actually, but please don't ask me for any secret information! :p There are many stories like this! I can easily remember the Mitsubishi "pajero", which in Spain means someone who masturbates a lot. The name had to be changed later to...

No, you would never get in trouble, is not like someone is auditing hostos or something. In any case, you can always argue that you just go out with her because you're friends. There's no way to prove that she's paying you money to do so, and there's not a law against giving "free" money to...

lol actually this is what I must keep from happening!! Having this engrish in automotive specifications is definitely NOT a good idea!

Well, I don't think it's that frown upon anymore. I've traveled all around Japan with my japanese girlfriend, holding hands and all, and we've been treated wonderful by everyone. In fact we've made many friends in our travels. Her family is also cool with me, but I've heard there are still very...

I'm not too knowledgeable on the topic, but from the way I see japanese society handles itself (very strict and orderly) I would like to assume that there is a strict control in which actors and actresses already in the business need to go undergo regular check ups, new recruits even more so...

Most of the "Nanpa" movies and the situations that you see are all staged, but it is completely true that scouts approach not just women, but also men on the streets to lure them into the AV world, and they are really, really persistent. They will follow you several blocks if needed. I...

I'm just a simple engineer working in one of the many japanese companies in this country (U.S.)

Yeah, working as a host is an informal job, just as being an independent english teacher. I'm not talking about going to an agency and then appear in some kind of catalogue or work at an establishment, but you rather go and stand outside of Shinjuku station's east exit (there are other spots but...

CodeGeek, don't fall in despair. Moving to Japan is not an easy thing to do at all. Some people just get so damn lucky to be transferred there by their own companies when they don't even have the slightest interest, some others have to work towards it half of their lives. Some other fall in the...

Back on topic, if all you want is to get laid in Japan, then is not difficult at all..... If you're looking for real love, that's another story. If you consider yourself at least reasonably handsome (or not ugly), your best bet is to go to any of the clubs in Roppongi (Tokyo). Lots of japanese...

I would say I'm fairly fluent to get around Japan and have some easy conversations. Having said that, I'm much better at "technical" japanese since I spend a lot of time at work translating japanese engineering documents to english and spanish. I travel frequently to Japan and there a lot of...
