New Year's Day in Japan

10:24 AM 0 Comments


Have you heard anything about New year in Japan?
Its pretty different to other countries.

The biggest holiday of the year in Japan is New Year's Day.
In Europe and North America Christmas is one of the biggest annual events,
but here in Japan New Year's is, by far, the most important and elaborate holiday.


In recent years, the significance of New Year's has been lost a lot and now many people spend the holiday,
which Normally starts around Dec. 30 and ends around Jan. 3, in resort areas or even in foreign countries.
Such as tropical places.

Still, a great number of people spend the sacred holiday
 with family members at home and celebrate the beginning of the new year.

New Year's Day in the morning we say "akemashite omedetou" which is Happy new year in Japanese.
First we get Nengajou which is New Year's greeting card from post.
And see who send me.
If people send me nengajou we are really happy to know how they are doing now.

Normally we send Nengajou to good friends or people who we like :-)

This is Nengajou
We have many designed picture on otherside.

In Japan, the New Year's holidays are a time for children to receive monetary gifts,
or otoshidama, from their parents and extended family.
Otoshidama is one of the happy events for children during the New Year holidays.
If their is many relative you will have many money going out lol

But its new year everybody feel happy :-)

After this we have breakfast wich call "Osechi-ryouri"
Normally lady prepare this from couple days before, to have day off in New Year's Day.
Well we buy osechi now.


We meet many relatives and plays with kids :-)
Eat nice foods too.

People are blessed in Shinto ceremonies and wait in line to ring a small bell and pray,
drink hot sake, eat mochi (chewy rice cakes).
And many of them are draw "Omikuji" which is written(paper) fortunes.
I got bad results for straight 3years :-(
Its very rare but not so happy though.
We call this "Hatsu-mode"
Very important things in Japan.
Its not like religion more custom from long time ago.

Many comedian program is on Tv.
Because this is most happy days in Japan.
No sad or tears.
We just wants to smile and laugh.


The Chinese Zodiac , which is used Japan, is based on years rather months.
Each year in a 12-year cycle is named after a different animal.

Next year is dragon :-)

Thats why many items from Japan designed as a dragon.
I am looking forward to eve and New Year's Day.
I cannot wait.

Do you have any traditional way to celebrate New Year's Day in your country?

Japanese winter time

10:33 AM 0 Comments


Almost December will finish.
Japan have four seasons.
Ofcourse it means Spring,Summer,Autumn and Winter.
We always enjoy this each seasons :-)
Still hard to live cold winter though :-(

Japanese island is long.
We do have tropical island such as Okinawa and Cold place Hokkaido.
Main island have many geographically distinct area too.

Such as Area I am living.
Officially called "Hokuriku"
But some people says "Ura-Nihon"
Means opposite side of Japan.
We hate this saying  |-(

Its pretty isolated world.
Normally big city and town is in pacific side.
Because middle part of Japan there is mountain range like backbone.

Ura-Nihon is known as heavy snowfall area.
Now its really snowing badly outside :-(

How is your place in winter?
Still warm?Cold?

My place Fukui in winter will be like this soon.

We start preparing from 29th to have great new year's day.
Buy many food and many decorations.
And traditional toys such as top,Japanese kite,hagoita.
Well recently children is playing Metal Fight Beyblade :-(

Traditional family makes osechi-ryori to eat after New Year's Day.
Well recently they just buy it lol Which is pretty sad things.

There is a 2 ways of celebrating New year's eve now :-)
Youngs just go for count down party.
Also many of Musician have year-crossing concerts and countdown.

Most of people eat soba noodles call toshikoshi soba waching tv
while listening to the New years bells in midnight,
and wish for health and longevity in the year to come.

This is the bell.
http://tinyurl.com/c7u4khm

There is a most famous music progamme call kouhaku uta gassen only in New Year's Eve.
Red team which is women vs White which is men singing contest.
Popular singers (and singing groups) split into two teams.

Normally its quiet days but we are having a wonderful time with family.

How are you and you???

11:16 AM 0 Comments


Do you know this english?
This is what Japanese knows most.

Have you talk to Japanese people before?
Or have you met somebody who can speak english well?
Japanese are really bad with english:-(
We study english from middle school to high school.
So basically more than 6years.
We study many grammers.
Which is really useless.
Still very bad tough lol
And listening and speaking is worse.
Ofcourse some are really good and there is many returnee students.
Such as from US,Australia,canada,Uk or from other countries.
But basically very bad including me :-(

Many of Japanese hate learning english when we were students.
I think because English class always boaring.

First word we study from text is pen lol
And first grammer or sentence we learn is "I have a pen" lol
When we first met some body and asked How are you?
We alway say  How are you? fine thank you and you???
This is how Japanese are very bad in english.

Like this
http://tinyurl.com/79u45ts

Isn't this interesting?
And this is true story.
I am like this too.

So I can have a communication with my friends in all over the world.
Or may be I can visit you LOL

Japanese winter must item Hokkakiro

10:19 AM 0 Comments

Do you know Hokkairo or Hokaron?
It is Japanese instant hand warmer.

When it gets cold, everyone in Japan uses one.
It gets warm gradually when it is shaken.
The person who can't put up with severe coldness will have one.
Why do you get warm? It's because of a chemical reaction inside.
Produce heat from the exothermic oxidation of iron when exposed to air.
Its made from natural substance so basically its safe when used as directed
The size is about your palm.

Now you can get instant hand warmer which one side is seal.
You can stick to clothes where you feel cold such as around back.

Like this:-)
http://tinyurl.com/7soeu27

This really works well when you go outside.
In Japan north island Hokkaido is really cold even during the day.
It temperatures can be drop to 25 degrees below zero.
It was awful :-(
I was freezing to death that day in Hokkaido.

Wet towel will become harden.
http://tinyurl.com/7oe2abc

Isnt this interesting movie?

Well this is bad example lol
Any way instance hand warmer is really working in these days.
Even in my place lol

Hope I am not going to north island in cold months any more :-(
Must go here during summer time.

Now you can get rechargeable hand warmer.
You can also recharge from USB.
Its pretty amazing.

Japanese traditional paper Washi

10:34 AM 0 Comments


Have you heard of "washi" before?
Washi is a type of paper made in Japan.

Washi is the Japanese word for the traditional papers
made from the long inner fibres of three plants.
"wa" meaning Japanese and "shi" meaning paper.

Now many people usually use western style paper.
which can make a lots in factory and cheaper and tougher.

Washi is hand made so it is bit expensive but really amazing.

When makig a washi they dont need much chemical,
this make paper strong and last long without change colors.
Its very easy for your skin nice and soft.
Allow air to pass through easily and Very light weight.
Its bad in water resistant but washi is easy to recycle.
But best part is very soft and have warmer touch than compare to other paper.

Some are use for lamp or lantern.

Thats why many Japanese love Washi very much.

This is how they make Japanese traditional paper"washi"
http://tinyurl.com/75xqnh2
Need good clean water to make this.
In Japan about more than 70% of land is
forest and mountains.
Which is good for to get nice clean fresh water.
Only flat places are crowded by people :-(

Any way this is reason why washi is bit expensive but
once you use this paper you cant forget this.

I love write letter to other people by Washi.
Everybody I send always impressed with this paper.
Also many of my friends told me that in europe
Japanese traditional paper "Washi"is very popular now!
When he write letter by using this paper to people in
overseas,always made them happy.

Iwachu Nanbu iron cast teapot

10:20 AM 0 Comments

Do you know Iwachu?
Iwachu is brand of Nanbu iron cast wich is Nanbu-tekki.

Nanbu-tekki is traditional iron craft in Japan.
They are made by proffesional craftsman.

Which I introduce about this otherday.

When using Nanbu Iron cast teapot you will find
tea taste more mild and very tasty :-)
Also they are made to retain heat.

And yesterday when I was watching on tv they show us in france,
Japanese comic wich is Manga is really popular.
And even cosplay they relly perform well.
They love Japanese culture very much wich I always proud of that :-)

In this program after they show us about cosplay,
they show us how they love Japanese Nanbu-tekki teapot.
They call that Iwachu which is brand of manufacturer.

Before Nanbu-tekki always there color was black or brown.
But one day customer from overseas ask then to make colorful Nanbu iron cast teapot.
And now this colorful tea pot is  very popular in france :-)

Which I didnt know that.

I am so happy to hear that in france they are so popular.
They even using in cafe as a normal tea pot :-)
I really surprised with that!
For Japanese colorful Nanbu iron cast teapot is not that famous.

But we should change that thinking because colored one is pretty fashionable.

Osechi-ryori in New Years day

10:35 AM 0 Comments


Do you know Osechi-ryori?
Osechi Ryori which is specially prepared for New Year's dishes.
Its normaly eaten during the first three days of January.

Most dishes are cooked to be preserved for at least 3days.
This is to make housewives rest from cooking.

Traditional style is to having various
type of meals full in one big lacquer boxes.

Each of the dishes has some auspicious
meaning which reflects people's wishes.

For example,kazunoko is wishing to have many children.
cooked black beans is to be healthy.
lobsters are for longevity because their
bodies are bent like an old person's.

Traditional way is to go shrine in new years day.
and express own goals of new year.
After that eat Osechi-ryori.

Every family used to make Osechi-ryori by themselves before.
But recently they dont know how to make or too busy to make.
So we buy from restaurant or from shops.

This is traditional style of Osechi-ryouri
http://tinyurl.com/6v8vgoc

Every body try to buy expensive one as possible as they can afford.
In these happy events normaly Japanese use plenty of money.
Otherwise good luck will gone to somewhere else.
Just way of old thinking :-)

Osechi-ryouri needs lots of time to make it.
So if we wants to buy normally needs to reserve from month ago.
Now good timing to make a reservation.

When I was looking for Osechi-ryouri
I found this :-D

Found movies in english.

WabiSabi

10:38 AM 0 Comments

Do you know Wabi-Sabi?
Not Wasabi(green horseradish paste) I am talking about LOL
Wabi expresses a way of being quietly clear and calm.
Sabi means having well seasoned, refined simplicity.
Wabi and sabi are the highest aesthetic values aimed at by traditional Japanese arts, particularly the tea ceremony and haiku.

Even in Japanese traditional crafts.
Nanbu tekki is one of them.
Looks very simple and calm.

Specially in Edo-preriod which is about 400years ago,
people are not aloud to have something flashy.
Maybe this is one of reason.

Even that rule people try to enjoy making fashionable items.
Currently,some people thinks Japanese traditional design is boring.
Specially young people in Japan thinks that.
Which is very sad.

Anyway I start to understand this wabi-sabi.
Maybe I am getting old LOL

Another name belly band,belly warmer or belly warmer tie.

Long time ago my granparents were wearing Haramaki.
And it was really Amazingly ugly.
It is one of old people is wearing.
So not many youngs have Haramaki.

But of course even youngs feel very cold when winter in Japan.
We do have tropical islands but normally winter is cold.
Many place snows specially in north part.

So even looks ugly Haramaki is must in winter
specially for ladies.

Recently Haramaki is very fashionable wich I cannot believe.

Even Japanese have technology to make these in big factory,
but they wont because they can make better quality than in factory.

Its like a swordsmith in Japan.

This is how they make.
http://tinyurl.com/68ruhk3

Nanbu Tekki is really high quality.
It looks very big and thick layer but it is not.

Normally quality cast ironware is 3mm to 5mm

Lazy hand !?

5:56 PM 0 Comments

Do you know lazy hand "Potechi no Te"?
Its good when you eating snacks and want to use
controller,keyboard or cellphone it will be very greasy.
Some Japanese wants to use chopstick.
But Japanese toy company Takara Tomy made "Potechi no Te"
to prevent this problem.

"Potechi no Te" means "Potato Chips' Hand".
Potechi is short for Poteto Chippusu.

This gadget is well designed not to break apart easily,
but still firm enough to seize potato chips :-)

Do you get the urge to rub your fingers while munching chips?
It mimics that motion for you lol

Very kawaii gadget :-D

This is video how this "Potechi no Te" works.
http://youtu.be/3BU9MPZplW8

Most of Japanese can use chopsticks but still
I want this item.

http://tinyurl.com/64dxdjg

This is "popcorn no te"

Is'nt this kawaii?
I think this item is pretty good for
people who cannot use chopstick.
Specially while you are working on PC.

Sony Personal 3D Viewer

5:54 PM 0 Comments

Have you heard this item
Personal 3D Viewer Head Mounted Display「HMZ-T1」?
http://www.sony.co.uk/hub/hmd-video-glasses

Sony is set to release a head-mounted
3D display that is straight out of science fiction.

I just found article from internet.
I feel very excited after I read this
But still suspicous about this.

Is this really work properly?
Work for me?
Is this item really worth to buy?

Its pretty expensive to buy for me anyway:-(
If this really works it will be like a star trek :-D

I will make sure about this item first.
It will realease on 11th of November in Japan.
After release I will go to electric goods store and have a try.
Bad thing for 3D goods is you cant tell
how good is from TV or in papers.

Hope i will enjoy this item :-D

Sony havent set date in other country to release.
Means they will have test traial first here in Japan.

But to be honest I want them to make
blueray dic player,Playstation 3 or anything new products cheaper.
Even for Japanese still very expensive and I dont have any of them orz

I am sure they can make cheaper.
What do you think?

If you are interested in HMZ-T1
you can pre-order from PIJ

Is Japan safe?

5:53 PM 0 Comments

Japan is known as very safe country.
We cant imagine there was a Saumurai and Ninja everywhere in Japan.
Normally we are not aloud to have any weapons with us even knives.
Ofcourse no Katana or Shuriken LOL

Only ploice and Jieitai which is self defence army can carry guns.
Hunter have rifles.
And Yakuza which is Japanese Mafia.
So many of us havent see guns.

I think this is one of reason why Japan is safe.
Ofcorse Japanese personality is very serious.
Recently Japanese number of crime is getting higher but
compared to others very safe.

One of example is many foreigner says,
in Japan every where we goes their are always bending machine.
Even right next to road.

They said never happen like this in other country.
If there are bending machine outside,somebody will steal in a day.
I feel very proud of my country.

Karate,Judo and Karate is good way to protect ownself in Japan.
Japanese police are doing Judo and kendo to protect themselves.

They must doing very well for us :-D

Is Judo and Kendo popular in your country?
I never done these before even I am Japanese.
