Fact or Fiction about Japan

Hi dear reader! It has been quite some time since the latest post! I have been a little busy at work. Well, sometime people say Japanese work too much like a hell I sometimes think it is not bad as long as they love them. I do not know if most of them love them or they do not have other choices.

Anyway, I experienced so much these days so instead of thinking about which to post, today I want to share some true fact and fiction about Japan. 

1. Sushi 

World loves sushi so much in movies, books, etc but do Japanese actually eat sushi everyday life or not that might be a question for you. Well, we love sushi like as much as you do. But it is not as ordinary food as you imagine. We eat sushi sometime in restaurant, or shop at supermarket. But for us the most important points for sushi is the freshness you know. The price depends on the freshness pretty much. One thing that you might not know is we do not have California roll in Japan. It is from California in deed. 

2. Ninja

Some friends of mine ask what is ninja look like, or I know ninja! It comes from Japan right with confidence. Well, Yes it is but Japanese do not care about Ninja at all you know. It might be from old days but we do not live in there!　

3. Samurai

Well, Same thing, we do not do Harakiri anymore! 

4. Anime

Anime is another well known thing around the world. I think this is a fact that many real Japanese has grown up with anime e.g. Pokemon, Doraemon, OnePiece, dragonball, Sailor Moon, This is very true story. I do not know why we like these so much. but that is how it is.

5. Ramen

Ramen is getting popular in many places worldwide. Ippudo, Ichiran, Shoru.... I have seen them in NY and London at least. Here in Japan, Ramen is very popular too! and it is relatively cheap like 500 yen -800 yen or so which is equivalent to 5 bucks to 7 backs. 

Well, I want to talk about this topic much more but I will leave the rest till the next time!
