Actually, only Asami is an AV star. Some of Noboru Iguchi directorial features come close to AV though, I believe...

It's 100% black, so I couldn't really mistake it as a white man.

And it's about a man's size.

And behind the corner.

That's better prices than you'd usually get over here, 13 plates of just salmon nigirizushi would cost you around £26/3630yen! Luckily I live near Birmingham and there's a couple of sushi joints there that do all-you-can-eat for £10. :rock:

You can get to astronomical sums here too if you want to. Everybody's always paying close attention to the plate color... red ones, yellow ones, black ones I can afford, the pinks are for millionaires.

Tabehodai, love these places. Went to Unga shokudou on Friday. Tried to invite all the girls I know, but with very poor results; 7 guys, and one married woman came. D'oh :mad: Next time I will pick a better time. But the food was great. It's normally 1800 yen (£13), but we had discount coupon so it went down to 1500 (£11). It's the place where they have the "grills" inserted into the tables, so you cook your own meal (meat and chicken that is, other food is "ready"). Great desserts they have too, aisu kuriimu and delicious cakes and other sfuff.

They must hate hungry gaijin. We probably make their business unprofitable :D

I'd love to visit a Yakiniku restaurant, there's not many here in England as it's mostly just Teppanyaki and Sushi/Noodle Bars, but you can find Chinese restaurants that offer the chinese versions of Yakiniku and Nabe, dunno what you call them as I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to Chinese restaurants. Can't say I've been to many Japanese joints either but you'd have to be pretty forgetful to be a Japanese film/TV/anime fan and not learn a shitload about Japanese cuisine over the years! :D

I'm not really familiar with japanese cuisine yet, and I've never been a fan of sushi (I usually find it too expensive for so little food), but last summer in Hong Kong I had a very nice japanese lunch in a japanese restaurant in Tuen Mun(HK), which was basically just a very nice flavoured rice plus (I think) beef, while my girlfriend chowed down on lots of sushi.

Definately going back to that restaurant next time I'm in Hong Kong. I MIGHT go again this summer, but I think I'll stay home, cause my girlfriend's whole family is going, and this time we won't be able to stay at her grandma's house, thus it will be more expensive, and it will be for only 4 weeks, so I'm affraid it will be a bit too crowded and hectic for my liking.

So I think I'll just stay home this summer. I do miss Hong Kong ALOT though, as always.

You know how the japanese often put -ne at the end of sentence... sou desune... muzukashii desune... kawaii desune...

...well, I just discovered you can also say hehene when something is funny :D

Love this language.

Oh, and btw, Ecchi and hentai actually mean the same. Foreign anime fans have given them different meanings but in Japan they are more or less the same. Believe me, I know. I've been called with both words many times enough... :icon_suspect:

Yeah ecchi comes from how the Japanese pronounce the letter H, and that's the H in Hentai - at least that's the theory anyway! In the west Anime fans have come to use the word ecchi to describe a particular style of sexualised comedy that's much tamer than out-and-out hentai.

How's the Japanese pronunciation of H different to English? There's the 'fu' but the other vowels are just normal 'h' sounds are they not?

Ha, Hi, Fu, He, Ho

It's how they pronounce the letter H when they learn the English alphabet, so they're pronouncing it in English. We say h like "aitch", they say "ecchi" or "eichi".

I was on my way to Yuki matsuri when something caught my attention... movie posters, hundreds of them. There was an exhibition at the Sapporo station. Beautiful posters for Japanese and foreign movies. How lucky. I probably spent 30 minutes staring at the Toei yakuza movie posters.
