Many animations can't watch now in Japan

Today, 1 week past from the erthquake.

Since the big earthquake, many animarions doesn't broadcast.

It seems like that some animations for adults were broadcasted on Sunday or Monday (2 or 3 days after quake) midnight.
But I didn't know because my area can't watch some midnight animations and I can't awake unlit midnight.
Some people were glad because it means their life are becoming normal they said.

one midnight anime "Kimini Todoke"
this starts at 01:00 every Tuesday

Many animations for kids haven't broadcasted yet though, can we say to return to the normal when the kids animations are able to watch on TV?

I don't think so.

Japan shall reconstruct it all over again

An old man who were rescued 3days later after earthquake said "we'd reconstruct it all over again".

This old man said "I'm OK because I had experienced Chili-Tsunami" when he was rescued.
Chili-Tsunai that is the Tsunami were caused earthquake happened at Chili in 22nd May 1960, came to Japan 24th May, 22hours later quake,  and 124people dead for Tsunami.
Sanriku area that is tohoku area facing the pacific ocean have attacked tsunami many times.

And this old man had experienced world war two,too.
Many Japan's city, Tokyo, Osaka, Hiroshima, Nagasaki and the other cities were burned by bomb at the WWII.
Japanese have reconstructed at the time again and again.

That is why he said "we'd reconstruct it again", I think.
He said in Japanese "mata saiken simashou" at around 1:00 on this movie.

Does Tokyo lose the foods?

It is said that supermarkets or convenience stores at Tokyo disappeared some foods.
It seems like the Japan's government had decided to control food campanies and factries becanse of to send foods to disaster area.

So, supermarkets and convenience srores can't stock some foods, breads or cup ramens or instant foods.
Also I haven't been able to find some breads at stores since Satureday evening even Hokkaido far from Tohoku.
We can't know how long this situation continues until

It's written "cup ramen".

The big earthquake at 11th March in Japan

We had gotten the very big Earthquake at 11th March 2011 in Japan.
I couldn't connect the internet service provider while 2 days.

At the moment, I drove the car for my job, I felt there were shaking about 2:45pm.
I didn't have damage because my living place are far from about 5 hundreds kilometers at the center of earthquake.
But a very lot of people dead, maybe over 10 thousands, I'm very sad.

And I'm very concerned about Nuclear power plant at Fukushima. It have had a very big damage.

It is said that we won't get gasoline and oil after tomorrow.
I wish to return to the normal life earlier.

I know that many people are praying for us around the world.
We have very thank.

Japan's scenery, summer country side 1

I collected some Japan's scenary pictures from Janan's sites.

It are almost summer scene, but I don't know where in Japan.

This girl is a high school student.

You know that Japan's summer is very hot and humid like Swedish sauna, exept Hokkaido.
If you come to Japan I recommend you to come spring or autumn.
Also in winter is very cold.

Rice field in Japan, maybe at May.

Rice field in Japan too, maybe at July or August.

A country rail way.

Children play at river.

I introduce you again when I got the other pictures.

There are many pictures but including some other countries pictures.

My rice cooker

This is a my rice cooker it can cook 600g rice seeds at once.

The rice seeds get to heavy when it cook, because they suck the water so 600g rice seeds become about 1.3kg rice after cook.

I was given this used rice cooker from my friend and have used this since 1993, Japanese products are really long life and don't break, I think.
If this cooker broke it maybe impossible to fix because probably there are no parts to repair in the produced campany.
If it goes I have to buy new one but I'll feel something sad.

Tatami's life

Tatami is Japanese traditional floor in the room.
Tatami is made of rush grass called "igusa" that is a kind of grass like rice.
Igusa is long grass and for strong corruption and bugs.

But recently Japanese houses have been getting without use tatami because tatami have to change surface regularly and flooring is easier to cleanig.

This picture is my room's tatami.

If you want to feel the taste of tatami easily, you'd buy goza.
Goza is the cheaper than tatami and you can buy at amazon.com.
Goza is a part of tatami's surface like a mat or carpet.
It is very light weight so you can bring and spread out everywhere in the hose and even outdoor if you want.
It can collapse or roll to small, so it is very convenient to bring.
In summer, spread goza over flooring and you lay yourself on it, you can feel cool and have a good nap.

About ad papers

Many ad papers are delivered my apaartment almost very day.
Most that are supermarket around here to announce for bargain.
Sometimes there are put into my post the other ad papers like car sale, real estate, delivery pizza store, izakaya.

Do you know "Izakaya"?
It is Japanese style pub. Some are having private rooms so when we want to drink comfortable, that is a nice space.
About Izakaya, I wish to write other article, sometime.

I talk back ad papers, all ad papers go to recycle finaly, almost areas of Japan have recycle systems everywhere.
I want to write this recycle system too.

How to make a my room comfortable?

What do you think what happened to the Japanese Otaku's room?

I found a Japanese internet site that introducing Otaku's room is titled "How to make a my room  comfortable?".

This site is putting many pictures, and compare their real room with their ideal room to do Otaku activities comfortable.

Of cource this site is written by all Japanese.
Sorry I can't translate all sentences, but I think you can enjoy only watching pictures.

I ate instant Ramen yesterday

Yesterday, I ate instant ramen at lunch.
It was salt taste ramen I cooked myself.

This is the package.
It is written "shio" big black letters that means salt in Japanese.









I can tell you how to make ramen, it's very easy I have cooked ramen since about 10 years old every Satureday.

First: Put water in a pot then boil the noodle about 3 minutes.


Second: When noodles are tender, you turn off the heater, and put into pot soup powder.

Finish: Move to the bowl and eat.
Add egg or hams or some vegetables, it makes taste good.




If you get a ramen you'd try to cook and eat.

Do you like to read books?

In Japan it is said that several hundred books are published every day and tens of thousands books in a year.
Maybe Japanese are nation that read many books I think, not only books but also comics and magines though.

This picture is a my book shelf and stocking books other rooms too, so I don't know how many books I have.
My father read many books too, perhaps is it heredity or almost Japanese so?
And Japanese books are probably reasonable, we can buy a hardcover for about 2000-3000 yen, paperbacks are selling about 300-1000yen besides many used books are 100yen.
I usualy read about 10 books in a month, but it cost less 10,000yen.

I like to read books very much.

My TV

This is my TV.

But I almost always don't watch TV programs.
I watch TV only Sunday morning for "Dragon Ball"which is broadcasting Sunday morning at 9:00 in Japan, and sometimes I watch some DVDs something like movies or animations.
I rent some DVDs from rental DVD store near my apartment about once a week, it cost 100yen a week.

I don't watch TV news, though I watch that always on PC or podcast, because it can watch when I wanna, I always watch CNN, ABC and NBC news on my iPhone.
But the announcer speaks very quickly for me so I can't understand only some parts.

My kitchen picture

I can show you my apartment kitchen.

Not saying a nice.

I'm cooking here almost everyday, but sometimes I go out for dinner or buy packed sushi to eat.
I like to cook, it stimulate my mind of artist, aside from taste.

Everyday I try to make new taste, sometimes it fail but it is bringing to me a good experiences for next challenge.
