/jp/ - Otaku Culture

Aso has been ridiculed the past months for his mispronunciation of common words. Problem is, he's not the only one, since the Japanese has an idiotic written language many people mispronounce stuff all the time, which is why tons of books on reading skills and pronunciation help are being published in Japan, read more in the article below.

>Literacy-boosting books are selling briskly. One titled, "Chinese Characters that Look Readable but are Easily Misread," released a year ago, has sold more than 800,000 copies — most of them since Aso's mistakes first got national attention in November, said Yukiko Sakita, a spokeswoman for Futami Shobo Publishing Co.

What did you dream of as a kid /jp/ and are you going to reach that dream someday?

I've always dreamt of being rich and powerful. I have a fortune of 6000 dollars currently and no friends.

Dis me, hate me, don't believe, I don't care. I hate my country of origin, nobody thinks people from my region are pretty, nobody thinks anything good about us.

If you say you're Japanese, people will raise their eyebrows and try to make conversations with you, Japanese people are beloved here, and opposite to what the Asian fags here say, white girls love Asians, especially if you're from Japan. At least here in Norway.

I'm not Norwegian, I come from the Middle-East. Ugly as hell, hairy, sweaty and nobody likes me. I'm so ashamed of my country of origins. WHY COULDN'T I BE BORN JAPANESE?!?!

WHYYYYYYYY!?!??!

In this story we follow a young, naive 3rd year student in Tokio, who falls in deep debt after handing out money to buy himself friends, just like your average asslicker on 4chan would do.

This man is good at heart though, and after paying down his debt, he starts to take on other people's debt and pay it down for them through risky jobs.

There's plenty of heartwarming tales, good comedic moments, and real life lessons and information debt in Japan.

But, because Oguri Shun has un-dyed his hair (it looks like a mess), and the complete lack of attractive women in this jdrama I have to give this show a:
