Hokuou Joshi: A Swedish Girl’s Life in Japan Volume 1, Chapter 3 (44)
Convenience store onigiri are way too handy! Why is it that Japanese girls can call just about anything “cute?” The guys at host bars are so hot, they’re like real-life anime characters! These are only some of the mysteries Swedish manga artist Åsa Ekström discovers in this journal comic about her journey from Scandinavia to Japan, which is jam-packed with surprises and laughs! ＞＞＞Chapter 3: The Rewarding Challenges of Japanese (44)「A Strange Reaction to Swedish Letters」
A Strange Reaction to Swedish Letters
Åsa’s comment
Even the Roman alphabet varies from language to language! We’ve got three special letters in Swedish, but we rarely use them in our names. I guess it’s just my luck! At least my Japanese friends seem to think they’re cute… I’m glad!
