Hokuou Joshi: A Swedish Girl’s Life in Japan Volume 1, Chapter 3 (48)
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 (48)「Japanese People Who Want to Speak English」
Japanese People Who Want to Speak English
Åsa’s comment
I’m happy when people speak English with me, of course, but it does cause a little confusion at times. Do I respond in English, or in Japanese? But I’m sure the correct answer is to be considerate of the other person’s feelings and answer in the language they used with you.
