“Yoroshiku onegaishimasu” is a common and polite saying for meeting new people in Japan. While the translation of “please treat me well” is technically accurate, the best way to think about how it is used is closer to “it’s a pleasure to meet you”.

Possibly one of the greatest institutions ever created in Japan… the IZAKAYA! Literally it means “a place for drinking”, it’s essentially a Japanese tapas restaurant with loads alcohol, and a great variety of small plates of food for sharing. Many chain izakayas have picture menus in Japan, which also ups the awesome factor when you don’t speak Japanese. Just beware of “nonkotsu”… it looks like fried chicken, but it fried pieces of cartilage… we’ve made that mistake before. Get this shirt and get to an izakaya now!

“Karaoke Iku?” (should we go to Karaoke?) is a great shirt to get the party moving to Karaoke. Once there, everyone has a great time, but sometimes it seems people need convincing.

Try it and you’ll see, you’ll be writing your vows soon… or having lots of fun on the way!

It’s not on the maps, but obviously the Japanese know where it is… they’re just not talking! Keep wearing this shirt and you’re gonna start to hear from some random Japanese people… start the conversation now!

Wanna have some fun!? Wear this shirt, then ask some Japanese person what it says. When they tell you it says, “cool looking Japanese Kanji”, say “yeah, I know, but what does it say?” Guaranteed to confuse, delight, and create new Japanese friends… or at least drinking buddies!
