I was wondering like what behaviours and names are considered unusual in japan? I'm writing something. It might be a bit of an ask but I want to also include some japanese superstitions. I know basic things like clapping at temples or shrines.

    In japan it's regarded as dirty to blow your nose, to eat while walking, to leave a tip...
    The number 4 has the same pronunciation as "death", so it's avoided
    If you put your pillow toward the north, it will bring you bad luck.
    In front of a cemetery, you hide your thumb (thumb in japanese is "oya yubi", and parents is "oya": if you hide your thumb you protect your family)
    Don't cross you chopsticks
    Breaking a geta means bad luck
    A wife who is born during the year of the horse bring bad luck o her family, so she will not be a good wife

    The only one I can think of atm is that you're not supposed to leave ur chopsticks in your bowl but place it on the top or side because it symbolizes death

    You're welcome (︶ω︶) If you wanna know something in particular just ask, because there are so many behaviors and customs that are different in Japan from the rest of the world...

    What do you do if your nose is stuffy, then?

    Y-You sniff ;___; In my opinion it's pretty disgusting but it's different for Asian people...

I'm writing a story and I've done so much research about Japanese history, sociology and overall the social tensions in Japan. I'm writing a story about two kids who don't fit in anywhere and I need a female name that is tough or could be heard as a guy's name. I don't really trust the baby name websites I usually use. For the guy I want his name to sound like spring but not feminine so I chose Haruo Yanaihara but idk if I want to keep it

    Sykonphain August 25, 2020 1:29 pm

    Hi! Haruo sounds nice I think.
    Some japanese names that I like for both female and male:
    Makoto (sincerity, truth)
    Ren (lotus)
    Mitsu (light)
    Tomoe

wag1 pelican August 18, 2020 1:14 pm

just read Koi ga Ochitara and now really want gay shit with guys and girls in suits. pls recommend me anything with a three piece suit !!

wag1 pelican August 15, 2020 12:38 am

i want something gorey but with plot? like i don't just want some guy going around murdering people, just something with lots of blood and a story. like something like parasyte. i properly won't read it on here but ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭

    Becky07 August 15, 2020 1:00 am

    usually those who like parasyte read Hajin too, I believe it fits the description even if I didn’t read it yet.

    In a dark fantasy setting, I advise you Berserk. The plot is well done.

    Finally, I advise you the manga Madk. It is in the yaoi category but it’s plot focused and very interesting

    Becky07 August 15, 2020 1:07 am

    Try Kakei no Alice too (English title : Alice in Murderland)
    It’s less gory than the one I mentioned before
    It’a really good and entertaining

    Becky07 August 15, 2020 1:49 am

    I tried to find some lists but I didn’t find one that is really good and not too rapey. And I agree with you, a lot of horror manga have this problem. By the way, Berserk is rapey : it’s not the main focus but it can be annoying, so I advise you the other mangas more.

    I thought of two others :
    -The Promised Neverland : the plot is really good, the arcs have various tones (Some are more psychological-based, and some others more horror-based). The mc is a girl. And there are no rape problems or twisted sexual stuffs
    - the anime Devil man cry baby (I didn’t read the manga because the art is meh). There are some sexual elements but I think it was not too annoying. The first episodes are meh but it gets better, the ending is great.

    Also, maybe try the webtoons (on the app webtoln I mean) from the horror category. There are no heavy sexual stuffs because the app has a strict policy.

whenever i cook or leave butter out my cat tries to eat it, so i give him a tiny slither, like half a gram whenever we are out of treats and he eats it up happily. i'm not giving him too much and he loves it but he doesn't like milk (including the lactose free milk designed for cats) he's not fat and i am very cautious of how much he eats. he already eats wet food, and i know he's getting the proper nutrients cuz he's picky. but i don't wanna put my cat in danger if butter is bad for him:(

    Ratattaaa August 14, 2020 10:35 pm

    idk, i just searched it up and this appeared
    "The bottom line is that cats should not eat butter. ... So in terms of fats and vitamin intake, butter is not healthy for cats. But butter isn't just high in fat and not the best way for your kitty to get her vitamins. It's a dairy product, which means we need to talk about lactose.27 de abr. de 2019"

there was this webtoon, but it wasn't coloured so it might be a manga. i can't remember the general story, its a slice of life, highschool comedy yaoi. they have newly become friends and the blond one finds bondage and rope porn on the black haired ones shelf and the black haired guy like practises tying the blond one up. but the black haired one ends up being the uke. i read it ages ago
