4 things you only find in Japan



1.Slurping is a very good thing

In many countries including Thailand, parents always teaching their children about table manners. If you are make noise while you're chewing, that is very rude but it is not like that in Japan. In Japan, slurping is a good thing to do, especially when they eat noodles. Slurp loudly when you eat can indicate that the food is delicious and it is a strange way to give a compliment to the chef.

2. Vending machines

Of course, most of countries all over the world have vending machines. Vending machine is the machine that sell goods such as drinks, snacks or cigarettes to people but vending machine in Japan is different. What makes them so remarkable are their bizarre contents. You can expect to find them everywhere from ancient temples to the top of the Mount Fuji, with a wide selection of goods ranging from fresh eggs and crepes to batteries, umbrellas and even underwear.

3. Outrageous Kit Kat flavors

I bet everyone know Kit Kat, a chocolate bar in vivid red wrap and we only know that it has one flavor, chocolate flaver of course, but it is not like that in Japan. There are many flavors of Kit Kat in Japan, from common flaver like strawberry to bizarre flavor like soy sauce. it´s almost impossible to imagine something like baked potato Kit Kat, soy sauce Kit Kat or wasabi Kit Kat. But not only do these flavors really exist in Japan; they are among the most popular.

4. Washlets

Washlets or, as many people tend to say, “crazy Japanese super toilets” are electric toilet seats with a water spray feature that cleans your butt. I know that Japan has a very high technology on everything, but is it necessary to create a high tech washlets? This is my personal experience when I travelled to Japan. I found it very difficult to use this super toilet. There are many buttons with Japanese letters and I don't know which button I have to press. While the Japanese are totally used to this zesty feeling, foreigners getting a shot of water up their butts are usually startled to say the least.

The Practical Way: How Japanese Super Heroes Makes It Work

The Difference Between Two Sides of the World You might have heard about Marvel Studio and DC Movies by now. Their movies are filled with World Class actors and actresses with top of the industry Visual Effects quality as their most well-known selling point. But there is a small country in Asia which still produces super heroes movies with almost none of those privileges Hollywood movies have. That place is Japan, where Super Heroes, movies -Tokusatsu- are filmed with real stunts in suits acting with minimal visual effects and featuring mostly new actors.  CGI Is the Last Resort As I mentioned, Hollywood Super Heroes movies are overblown with CGI, practically in every scene. However, Japanese Tokusatsu is on the other side of the spectrum. A show like Kamen Rider, Super Sentai and Ultraman still utilize real stuntman in a costume to shoot action scenes for the show. They do use CGI for some impossible scenes that cannot be produced in real life such as transformation ...
