Universal Studios Japan Subway Car

With my friend Paul, I spend five days in Osaka, Japan. The trip provided much refreshment, and excitement, not to mention many challenges. It was my first visit to the country, and, I feel, it certainly won’t be my last, as there are still many places left to see, and so many new things to learn.

We had several destinations highlighted on our itinerary, the foremost of which was Universal Studios. We spend an entire day there, going on rides and more often than not, queuing for them. The excruciating wait times were worth it, however, for such exhilarating fun, especially on the Hollywood Roller Coaster, my personal favorite. The next morning we followed up that successful endeavor with a trip to the Himeji Castle, a place which came highly recommended by my colleague, whose succinct description of the heritage site was, "awesome." Indeed, as a history buff, I enjoyed walking the storied grounds and climbing through the maze-like interior of the keep which was designed not so much to comfortably house the royal family as to confound the invading enemy. The castle is a must-visit. Other attractions of note include the Osaka Aquarium, and the Tennoji Zoo; both teemed with animals of every shape and size. We also at length ventured into several shopping districts inside of which were myriad stores, selling all sorts of fashion and gadgetry, countless restaurants and several gambling parlors – the Japanese, it seems, love their slot machines as much as the Hong Kong Chinese love their horse racing. Lest I forget, we frequented several video arcades to play the latest and greatest games; Paul played well, while I more often than not got 0wn3d. There is a lot to do in Japan.

Japanese culture, of which I’ve heard so much, really is distinct and separate from other Asian cultures. Their patterns of action and their peculiar artifacts certainly aren’t the same as those which feature prominently in Hong Kong. For one thing, the MTR culture was more civilized and less stressful: people queued up for trains and let passengers alight first before permitting themselves to board; cellphones never rang and cabin cars were as quiet as bedrooms at midnight; and to imagine all of these people enforce their norms without public service announcements, without any coddling, conspicuous signs – that’s amazing. What proved difficult was trying to find a garbage can. It was easier to find a vending machine, from which one could purchase a variety of drinks or cigarettes, than a bin in which to dispose of these delectable, perishable goods.

As for the general citizenry, they were most accommodating and hospitable, with several individuals going out of their way to help Paul and I find our way around the dense sprawl of the city. Language wasn’t a concern despite our limited Japanese; amazingly enough, our comfort was their concern! I won’t forget their selfless service, as one day, I hope, I’ll be able to return the favor. That the girls were quite attractive and that I demonstrated a propensity to ask attractive girls for directions go without saying; however, I understand now that their sexiness and sophistication stem not from comely faces but coherent attire. Rather than adorn themselves like a typical Mong Kok girl in a ridiculous neon rainbow palette, with jeans or unseemly spandex underneath dresses, skirts or other tops better left to stand alone, Japanese girls opt for more somber, sensible colors – black and cream-colored – and what’s more, they aren’t afraid to whip out the tasteful pantyhose or to show some skin, even. We had plenty of time to ogle the ladies, and to their credit, freezing temperatures weren’t enough to dissuade many of them from forsaking, icing their shorts, as we saw countless pairs being worn on the street. That’s what I call fashion professionalism!

Overall, Japan is a marvelous little land full of the eccentric, as well as the endearing. It was a fascinating place to explore, and I’m thankful that it was done in the company of my friend , with whom candor was not at a premium. We both learned a lot and look forward to the next trip!

小学二年生 December 1995


Image by Chris Fritz
This is the cover of the December 1995 issue of "小学二年生", which means "Second Year Elementary Student". It’s filled with a variety of drawn comics, and also a Godzilla comic using images from a Godzilla movie or photographed toys.

Many of the comics are easy to read and understand for an English-native learning Japanese, since the comic book is targetted toward young Japanese. Also included are punch-out, to-assemble items such as a Kirby vanity mirror.

All kanji has the kana reading of it in small print alongside the kanji.

Comics include:
* "Godzilla versus Destroyer" (using images from a Godzilla movie or photographed toys)
* "Shirubania Family" (using photographed clothed animal dolls)
* "Hoshi-no Kirby" ("Star’s Kirby"?), by SAKUMA Yoshiko
* Something starting with "Urana", starring a pink-haired girl with a star on her forehead. I think Urana is this character’s name.
* "The Dora-emon’s"
* "Very Popular Gag Brothers: Super Mario-kun", which is easy to read due to very little kanji.
* "Akira * Start!", which appears to be about a human sized fairy and a little girl.
* "Suto II", a Street Fighter II gag comic. In this one, Ken, Ryu, Sagat (did I spell that right?), and another guy ("Akuma", I think) are having an uppercut contest. Dalsim (again, I’m unsure about spelling) joins in, and uppercuts higher than the rest — only he’s cheating by using his ability to stretch his limbs by stretching his leg so he’s higher than the others. In another scene, the fighter with the blond hair in braided pigtails sees Chun Li pass by, but it’s actually Ryu with the two cloth coverings on his head like Chun Li wears. The girl gets mad at Ryu and pulls them off of his head, revealing that he was hiding two lumps he earned on his head in his previous street fight. In the third, Blanka is admiring Chun Li’s bracelet, since he wears an "ankelet" as well, but when he looks at her "bracelet" and comments on her "extremely thin foot", Chun Li points out, "That’s my hand!" Maybe it’s funnier if you see it? ^_^;; Two others include Blanka with a bad hair day, and one with Ken and Ryu. There’s also one with Vega (M. Bison in American game) in some manner of space suit-like outfit, making him invincible to attacks…until Ryu kicks him into deep water.
* "Yossy Island", a Yoshi’s Island comic
* Something called "Mosha kou"
* "Wedding Peach"
* "J Leaguer", a soccer comic starring a small boy with spiked black hair.
* "Arukaato-kun", a kiddish comic about horror movie monsters.
* "Obape’s Hyuutan", featuring a Casper-like ghost and a starring young girl.
* "Leon-kun", a comic with swirly-eyed lizards and a turtle.
* "Dash Boy", which appears to be a comic revolving around racing toy race cars.

Phew, that’s a lot of comics!
