|
| The Japanese title also happens to be a pun: Zui Chou Bing Qi

| Bing Qi (ultimate weapon).

| Having lived in Japan for multiple years in the past and

|
| For example if you're running with a younger crowd in Tokyo

| the time people there just aren't comfortable with dealing

| about having a bad time, it's from jaded Eikawa teachers
| who've made no effort to learn Japanese or branch beyond
| their friend group of other foreigners despite having lived
| there for many years.
|
| That said young people aren't running the government there
| due to being solidly outnumbered, so national policies are
| naturally going to be more reflective of its older
| population.

| CMU is a solid computer science and engineering school which

| Really nice article with lots of good shows! My personal
| underappreciated yet awesome and highly recommended ones from
| that article are:
|
| - Aomori: Flying Witch: Highly relaxing show with lots of nature.
|
| - Wakayama: Summer Time Rendering: A highly highly
| underappreciated sci-fi thriller that picks up in the latter half
| and keeps getting better and better, with an awesome ending. Iirc
| the show was underappreciated in Japan because Disney+ had
| exclusive streaming rights when it was airing and it flew under a
| lot of people's radars due to that.
|
| Also, doing pilgrimage for an anime you like provides a really
| good motivation to actually visit and explore the place. Japan is
| quite homogeneous but each place has their own charm.

| If I can also make suggestions:
|
| Osaka: Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobashi. You can see such
| shotengai in real life Osaka as well. Also uses exclusively
| Kansai-ben.
|
| Hiroshima: In This Corner of the World. It made me cry 3 times!
|
| Fukuoka: Manga Bambino! An Italian food manga with a ca. 22 year
| old protagonist. I dearly dearly loved this manga when I was
| around the same age. The protagonist is from Fukuoka. This manga
| was one of the reasons that inspired or motivated me to learn how

| a young adult.
| smukherjee19 wrote:
| I loved In This Corner of the World! It's a really good take on

|
| For Fukuoka, I also remembered that the recently aired Buddy

| custody of a little girl who is the kid of one of their
| targets. The kid is super innocent and cute, and from what I've

| things to prepare on day 1 of kindergarten seems very real) in
| Japan. Can recommend!

| Seconding Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobashi, it's a great
| anime and as someone who lived in Kansai for a few years a

| mortenjorck wrote:
| Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobashi is probably under-
| appreciated, as it's overshadowed by some of the studio's more
| popular titles (including, of course, the juggernaut franchise
| of Evangelion). It's one of those works that feels inextricably
| linked to its setting; despite being another wildly imaginative
| Gainax series, the richness it draws from Kansai history and
| tradition is impressive.
|
| A suggestion for Kyoto along similar lines: The Eccentric
| Family (both the original and sequel seasons).
| uxp100 wrote:
| Both the eccentric family and the night is long... are based
