Thanks, now I know how to make instant noodles. Left is to teach me how to boil water. :rofl:

Well, actually there are more than 1 method to make instant noodles.
One is to put all in the bowl and pur hot water over
another is to just put the noodles in, pour hot water over let them boil a while, pour the water out again and then put the rest inside with hot water again.

I accidently made "2nd method noodles" with the 1st way once :bleh: Well, itLs all not THAT easy. Especially when everything on th box is in japanese :hehe:

So you obtain overcooked noodles :shakehead: :rofl: . Dudes... Instant noodles don't need langage understanding. I tell you you can find them all over the world, included in the shops held by chineses in Africa.

Okay/ Let me tell you the 3rd method. It's especially recommended if you are starving, you have a little amount of water and you lack energetic assistance : Open the bags, and eat what's inside. The oil will protect your stomach for what will follow. Then eat the noodles raw. Drink the few water you have available. Roll yourself several times on the ground to melt what's in your stomach, in order to make it digestible. You're it.

Personally never tried that. (Please if a child is reading this, teach him eating dried noodles is NOT as safe as eating frozen fries.)

Jep. I love ramen, udon etc :mrgreen: And the japanese instant packs are really good. If you give hot water in you could think itLs completely fresh. Even the meat and salat inside.
Japanese softdrinks are great. The taste is much more intensive than what we have here in Europe. And I like the J-beer better, too. ILm not a big beer drinker but I really like some of the japanese :mrgreen:
As for softdrinks; if you ever have the chance to bet some calpis (the white bottles on the pic) you should try it. Tastes great. You can get it with different fruit flavors as well. The other yellow bottles are with pineapple /banana taste :mrgreen:
The clear bottles are Ramune. Similar to sprite (I think you know that, right?) but not as sweet and better in taste, ILd say. The coolest thing about ramune is the way to open the bottle, though :hehe:
The big green bottle is a Lotte drink named "milkies." It was new to me, too. Best way to describe it is a little watered, sweet, carbonated milk. Very tasty and refreshing. I got another similar one with melon flavor, too. :mrgreen:
Starcolle: what pics were those exactly again? I think I have them but as clippings without the cover ;)

I personally have a <3 for noodles made from rice wheat. More if it goes with vietnamese food <3.

Ah calpis, calpis water. Aya once starred in a cm for them. But the calpis on the pic is not water is it ? Looks like milk.
(Yes I know sprite. This is coca cola company therefore worldwide known).
Okay I'm gonna save your pic then, and your little text too.

It seems you really had a nice holiday :hehe: :hehe:
btw, may I ask a question? Are there many Japanese in Germany? Or are there many Germans interested in Japanese stuff like you? If not, how come there're so many different types of natto in the supermarket?

@Thy-san, I envy you too. :shamefulcry: You get a good friend to bring you so many aya's stuff :woot: :woot:

@ Sango:

These aren't new. It's the smae set in which she jumps. The pose is just different.

Hmm for teh calpis I can't seem to find it. It was when she was chubby. The opening show little boat with 3 people inside, the camera flies over the boat, which is sailing on a bright blue water. A boat with oars, like those used in HK for Quan Yu's celebration. Then suddenly the 3 people start drinking calpis water. 15s.
Man if u find it please upload. It seems it was part of my little Aya folder when I first heard about Aya long time before I joined jdorama.

well, it wasnLt a very relaxing trip. 3 days running around shopping at 35‹ c :hot: :sweat: :hehe:
But it was fun as always :mrgreen:
No, there arenLt many Japanaese in Germany. And unfortunately nearly none where I live :shamefulcry:
Duesseldorf is the town with the most Japanese in Germany though. So itLs a great place to shop and eat j-food :mrgreen:
Many stores there. I actually prepared a few photos of my last trip for someone else. but maybe you are interested in seeing them, as well? The text is in German, though.

As for music and doramas:
manga and anime became somewhat popular in Germany over the past years. But nobody watches dorama or hears j-music. At least no j-pop. There are several visual, J-rock fans but I think you can count all Jpop or dorama fans by one or two hands.

yes, the fotos are from the old photoshoot. But these 2 are new and the pamphlets, too.

Hmm, donLt think I know that CM. So if anyone has it please upload!!!
But the normal calpis is called calpis water sometimes and sold in differnt size bottles and cans. So it might have been the same...

Oh! it's really a hard time to shop around under 35C...
Thanks a lot for your detailed explanation. :woot: I see, that's why an anime called 'Monster' uses Duesseldorf as one of the main stages of the story. It may be the reason behind.

btw, don't know for what reason, my PC can't view your webpage properly. I want to watch more about your trip though :shamefulcry: :shamefulcry:

Hopefully jinzoaya asked ! I'm always interested in these kind of photos !

Same case in France, manga and anime only. I must precise that's a rare domain in which the japanese are not in competition with western companies. It's just because kids are bored of the simple stories, western anime they watch on tv. Basically it looks like walt disney, or like pingu the little penguin etc. Or else american cartoons with bugs bunny etc. There are no western anime for children around 10 years old and more. Only for the very little kids up to 6 years old. There was a place for the manga and anime market.
Yup teenagers, who looooooove asking lots of questions in all directions, are like stuck to their mangas. Though there are good novels to read, really, outside harry potter, these novels are also read by adults. Manga is written /drawn for teenagers. Yes, for now, only the mangas for teens have reached Europe. There are some realistic mangas for adults here and there, but it's rare. When people will be familiar to mangas here, they'll probably look forward to more serious mangas but we haven't reached that state. Also western comics are different, either american comics but mainly, in Europe, A4 size books drawn in color (cool !) but few pages (poor scenario), and expensive. Compared to manga, cheap, dynamic drawings, complex scenarios, obviously some people bought mangas.
That is just justice. The zodiac knights, I grew up with. Goldorak too. Dragon Ball of course. And obviously all other animes on tv were nothing compared to these. Not my fault.

Lol 35‹C yeah I like europeans people when they come to my island they become all pink like lobsters :rofl: You guys aren't used to it that's all. Plus, the earth is getting hotter for u and colder for us :sweat: .
Anyway 35‹C is for newbies. In western australia it goes much more than that. 37‹C in the shade (yes in summer) :hehe: More in the desert (never tested I'm not crazy). Wanna know my secret to survive ? WATERMELON ! EAT IT AT BREAKFAST AND BEFORE GOIND TO BED ! YAY :woot: LONG LIFE TO WATERMELON !

Actually lots of mangas loooove Paris, loooooove London, looooooooooooove russian cities, and looooooooove dusseldorff. Because Japanese are very curious of western countries. Example of Anime that amkes you travel from okinawa to western cities, the one I said above + new york : Blood+ . Very very good anime. It's bloody but that's not pure violence like Ken. The story is interesting, a girl whose blood (and only HER blood) permits to kill some monsters. Fantastic anime with good human values. Not as bloody as Ken or whatever, but still if you can't stand someone bleeding normally don't watch it. I don't want u to go to the hospital in reanimation.

Free, just copy paste your travelling guide into a .doc document and send ti to him.

:shocked: MY PARADISE ! MAN I love their sauces, better than Lee Kum Kee brand. ANd often WITHOUT MSG ADDED ! LOL I'd like to try everything, though for now some sauces are tried are very very very different from what I'm used to, so much that sometimes I'm :bleh: . Yakitori sauce from kikkoman is good. Teriyaki too, close to chinese roasted pork served as first course dishes.

Possible. Very possible than I wondered "huh ? Water which is white like milk ?"
Btw I ckeced on uety cm collection,it's not there. But you'll find the 2005 census cm and curry cm if you're interested.

Well, there is plenty of delicious other J-food to buy there. DoesnLt have to be nattou :hehe:

Sorry but Natto is Aya's breakfast, a very important time of a good day. HANDS OFF, Natto is essential. A "proper husband", as thy says it, would do his best for the local food to suit Aya's needs as close as possible. If she has natto on the morning, therefore she's ready to taste all type of local food later on the same day.
