Do not mess with Ryoko Yonekura

Ryoko Yonekura. I did not know her until recently, when I started binge-watching Doctor-X on Netflix. All six seasons of it. Ryoko Yonekura plays as Japan’s (and maybe even the world’s) best surgeon, Michiko Daimon. She’s a freelance doctor who doesn’t like groups, bowing down to authorities, and lists down surgery as her hobby. As […]

Basic Japanese 1 – Hiragana – Wa, N, Particle O

You’ve made it to the last set of unique Hiragana characters! Good job! There are remaining sets but you’ll find that they will use characters you’ve already learned in the past. Anyway, here are the last 3 characters for you to learn. ん – is a whole syllable in it self and is pronounced distinctly […]

Basic Japanese 1 – Hiragana – RA, RI, RU, RE, RO

Our next set of characters are the R-series. Japanese pronounces the “R” like it’s somewhere in between “L” and “R”. Your tongue should only slightly touch the top front part of your palate. Watch the video below for the pronunciation and the stroke order. See you in the next lesson! またね!

Basic Japanese 1 – Hiragana – YA, YU, YO

Think of the middle ground between HU and FU. Pronunciation and stroke order below. Almost halfway there! See you in the next […]

Japanese songs you thought were OPM

I can’t exactly remember when I started liking Japanese pop culture. Was it the first time I watched Voltes V or Dragon Ball back when I was just 7 years old? However, I vividly remember the first time I liked a Japanese song. They used to play it on the radio back then. It was […]
