Mr. Japan, hello, please tell me about Sukeban. Have you seen them, have you encountered any of them in person? Did they attack you, or did you witness their robberies and fights?

What is your opinion of their actions?

Ah yes, スケバン/助番.

I remember first seeing them in the 1970s even though they first came around in the 1960s I believe.

They are honestly very distinctive due to their long skirts; I’ve never been robbed by them however I’ve witnessed three of them shoplifting at the Itoya Stationery store in Ginza.

They became so high in number that I had to discuss with the policemen of my country on how to identify them. Some 番長 didn’t accept the sukeban into their groups and that’s what kickstarted a lot of sukeban action however in my opinion in recent times I’ve seen more sukeban than banchō.

Yap, it's really cool here! Only every other person here ends up in a shadow ban for some reason.....

Ah I see. How are you able to tell whether or not you are shadow banned if I may ask?

Mr. Jap, do you like it here on Tumblr? (⁠^⁠.。.⁠^⁠)⁠ﾉ

I am rather fond of Tumblr so far actually. I enjoy interacting with others as well as viewing some art. Do you enjoy Tumblr if I may ask?

Greetings. I decided to make a Discord server where all personifications can enjoy each other’s company. It is still under construction with more coming soon however I hope to see you all there.

~ Sincerely, Japan.

(OOC: Hi!! This server will kind of be like the roleplay blogs except you get to interact with each other roleplaying as your claimed character! ☺️)

見返り美人図

Today I decided to dress and pose as a famous painting: 見返り美人図 otherwise known as Beauty Looking Back.

This painting was a singular stand alone piece made by Hishikawa Moronobu who is mostly known for his innovative ways regarding the method of coloring for ukiyo-e woodblock. This method was very influential due to how my house simply only had black print before then.

To showcase the painting’s popularity even more so, the “Beauty Looking Back” painting was adopted as the pattern for the first Japanese postage stamp after WW2 in 1948.

Oh hi Japan how are you doing? What do you think of going to my farm this weekend? You can bring your dog

@ask-the-swiss-canivet-guy

Greetings. I am doing very well, thank you. I would be honored to go to your farm this weekend. Which day is most convenient for you? I’m sure Pochi-kun would utterly adore your goats.

Pochi and I decided to take a small walk today however Pochi had other plans… we boarded the bus and walked over to the local convenience store for sweet treats and onigiri.

海老も一人では美味しくない

Even sea bream is not delicious when eaten in loneliness.

This proverb is especially true when I am with Pochi. Tonight we ate together at a restaurant; it was rather enjoyable.

Speaking of Christmas time, I wish to ask you a question personally if that is quite alright with you, America. Ever since 1974, KFC has become a beloved Christmas time meal for families across my island. Due to this, I was wondering if KFC is a widespread Christmas tradition for your people considering that you are the founding nation of KFC?

It's funny, kids get presents from their dads who sometimes dress up as Santa – and Finland once told me I could think of him as my papa – so if I were to think of him that way, then my dad really WOULD be Santa!

He'd be way more convincing with a beard, though. 🤔

Salutations. I am 日本国 otherwise known as the state of Japan by my colleagues or simply Honda Kiku by those whom I am familiar with.

Many people know me for my cuisine, sumo wrestling, samurai, onsens, and anime however I wish to share my culture as well as expand my horizons on the customs of other countries through this app.

Please do feel free to send in asks; I will try my best to answer them with punctuality however if I fail I do so I apologize in advance.

A Little About Me:

Birthday: February 11th which is my national foundation day. In 660 BCE, Emperor Jimmu ascended to the throne and unifying my people as one nation: Japan.

My Favorite Food: I am very fond of vegetables especially when they are pickled, fermented, and salty. I am also fond of sushi, shiozake, nimono, tsukemono to a large extent.

My Hobbies: I enjoy exercise such as walking, baseball, making preserved food, working with my hands on 2D and 3D taking care of Pochi-kun, and sunbathing. My newest hobby is challenging myself to cook dishes from every country (they will most likely be adapted in a respectful manner to suit my own personal taste).

My Companions: My beloved Shiba Inu named Pochi, my cat who is addressed as Tama, my Guinea pig named Haru, and my pet rabbit who is named Yuki.
