Stuff about Japan and Japanese that one can actually enjoy and use!, Sep 12 2004 12:00AM
Reviewed By: Arg
Review Of: Young Dudes Guide to Japan in Unknown Tag: 'cat_linked'
 

This site has proved to be both a valuable resource and a great waster of time. Valuble because of the good advice available (how Tokyo can be cheaper than Europe to visit if you have the right attitude) and becuse of the real people I have met there with similar interests (eating rice, and other things). A time-waster because it is like a book that one cannot put down, a magic book that keeps growing as fast as one can read it.

Solid 10!, Sep 21 2002 12:00AM

Review Of: Young Dudes Guide to Japan in Unknown Tag: 'cat_linked'
 

I honestly think some people must be sabotaging the vote meter here because this site deserves a solid 10! It is well-built, with beautiful artwork and graphics. The stories fade on with accompanying music that gives them a cinematic feel, elevates the emotions felt with reading each essay. Lastly, the author is indeed a talented writer, every story is brutal in it's honesty and feeling - writing that is inspirational and pulls on the heart strings in places. Do yourself a favour and check out the best site about Japan on the internet.

I'm mostly a lurker at the site, but find it entertaining at times. Some of the essays are extremely well-written.

Review Of: Young Dudes Guide to Japan in Unknown Tag: 'cat_linked'
 

I have been a contributer to this site for some time. In a nutshell, I must say that this site is not for the PC minded or the faint of heart. It is a low site about living in Japan centered around the topic that people rarely talk about honestly - which is getting laid. This place is not for kids. I am a Japanese male and I did not know until I found this site that a White male's interest in Asian women is looked on as some sort of perversion by Westerners. But evidently a lot of people are in the closet. This is a place where such people can find that they are not alone. Like-minded souls will trade insights they have gained about Japan and share adventures about Japanese women. The posters are generally knowledgeable and have a great sense of humor. But if you are one of those people who cannot get laid in your own country coming to Japan in search of easy sex, you are in for some well-deserved ridicule from the regulars of this site.

Review Of: Young Dudes Guide to Japan in Unknown Tag: 'cat_linked'
 

I find the previous comments by the so-called "asianguy.com" quite offensive. Mr. Com obviously does not realize that the Western civilized world has been most gracious in helping those little benighted "sticky" countries with the opportunities needed to bring them full membership. In fact, this is simply another instance where those poor natives have quite simply forgotten to whom they owe a debt of loyalty for bringing them out of barbaric savagery. If it were not for the gentle guidence of good wholesome christian morals and solid capitalistic endeavors, it is quite clear that these countries would still be mired in stone-age brutality and ignorance.

Asia for the asiatics!, May 15 2002 12:00AM

This site is garbage. It's a front for white crakkkers who wish to exploit our natural Asian beauties with their capitalist pig behavior. Asia for the asiatics!

Unique!, May 12 2002 12:00AM

Review Of: Young Dudes Guide to Japan in Unknown Tag: 'cat_linked'
 

I enjoyed this site thoroughly and could not stop myself reading for 3 hours straight when at first I discovered it. On initial glance it I forsaw a collecting of mutterings from group of obsessed asian fetishists, yet on further inspection I found myself woven into the authors fantastical collection of essays and exhilirating sense of humour. As if that weren't enough, there is an 'Essay Archive' which comprises a plethora of tales numbering well over one hundred, constructed by the sites regulars. If this site had been a book I had been reading, I would not have put it down from start to finish. I cannot recommend this site enough, it is highly unique amongst the other run-of-the-mill Japan sites out there, and offers far more of an insight into the cultural/sociological mind-frame of the Japanese. It is far and away the best link I have yet found on Japan Reference.

Got to be one of the funniest sites about Japan on the web. Well, not just Japan, it's probably the best site on the internet.
