🇯🇵 Kora Taisha in Fukuoka is probably my favorite shrine in Japan. No one knows when it was founded but its first mention is in 795 AD in an historical text. The view from the shrine is amazing.

🇯🇵 There's a video of Japanese idol Kubo Shiori throwing a pitch at around 60 km/h (about 37 mph). However, people online edited the audio to make it sound like it was thrown at 160 km/h. Unfortunately, some people actually believed it. 😅

🇯🇵 The release of Windows 95 was a really big deal in Japan. It was purposely released at midnight before a national holiday so people could wait in line at midnight. In places like Akihabara, people were lined up for hours.

Lost In Translation (2003) was the first time I ever saw Japan through the eyes of a non-Japanese person. I love the shots of Shinjuku in this film. It's so dreamy.

🇯🇵 Japanese actress Satomi Ishihara threw a ceremonial first pitch years ago at Tokyo Dome. It wasn't the best pitch... but a lot of people were impressed by her "tornado style" throw and posture.

🇯🇵 In the mid 90s, "loose socks" became very popular for girls in Japan. It was extremely common to see girls wearing these to school. Some of them used double-sided tape and tried to make them look more "loose" because it looked more fashionable.

🇯🇵 Anime voice actress Kana Hanazawa called Domino's Pizza live on TV and used different anime character voices to order. However, the restaurant employee didn't react at all. Instead, the employee stayed completely calm and professional the whole time. In Japan, we are trained to be composed no matter who the client is. Sometimes it feels almost too much.... If I were her fan and realized it was her, I would've told her I was so excited to speak to her.

🇯🇵 Often in Japan, when people are crossing over train tracks, the barrier comes down only a few seconds later. This can be dangerous if you're not careful. Thankfully, a random man saved this 90 year old lady only a few seconds from impact.
