These summer-exclusive character breads are almost too cute to eat. Almost.The rays of the summer sun have started to beat down on Japan, leading many of its residents to cover up in long-sleeved clothes or copious amounts of sunscreen. On the other hand, there are many cartoon characters who are revelling in the sunlight and catching some rays, such as the latest McDonald’s range of Hello Kitty toys. Next up for the bronzing treatment arw Chiikawa and its friends, who star in a web manga origin
Get in the U.F.O. ZONe and brace yourself.It could be said that there is no finer dining than a can of energy drink and plastic tub of instant yakisoba noodles. I mean, I just said it right now, and it was easy. I might do it again someday.Whether you agree or not is another matter, but the makers of Japanese energy drink brand ZONe conducted research that found many consumers bought such drinks and Nissin’s U.F.O. instant yakisoba together.So they decided to join forces and develop U.F.O.
The People's Bank of China's (PBOC) Governor Pan Gongsheng told a press conference the first RRR cut since September last year will release 1 trillion yuan ($138 billion) in liquidity.

Suntan Kitty and yukata Kitty are here for fun on summer days and summer nights.Whether you call them Happy Meals or use their for-Japan name of Happy Sets, the point of McDonald’s meals for kids and kids at heart is to put both a burger in your hands and a smile on your face. Those smiles are going to be especially big for Sanrio fans this month, as McDonald’s Japan is releasing Hello Kitty Happy Meals, and we’ve got a special sneak peek at the whole lineup!First previewed last week, we knew th
A surprise newcomer steals the show as this summer’s must-try beverage.Fruit has been plentiful at Starbucks this summer, with strawberries and mangoes keeping us refreshed throughout the season, but now it’s time for a new crop to take centre stage, with a trio of Shine Muscat grape drinks called “Three Summer Muscats“.On the menu from 9 July, we were one of the first in line to try the trio, and with Shine Muscat being a large and premium Japanese cultivar of grape, we
The experience isn’t all mountain views and cold drinks.Located towards the western tip of Tokyo, Mt. Takao is a beautiful destination for those who love the outdoors…but it’s also a beautiful destination for those who love beer. That’s because every summer, just as beer gardens are popping up on the roofs of shopping centers and department stores in the big cities, Mt. Takao’s very own beer garden, called Beer Mount, starts pouring cold ones from its perch at an elevation of 488 meters (1
Government would be happy if you at least tried generating a mildly bawdy limerick.It’s certainly hard to imagine life before generative AI came out. Without it, I never would have known what my microwave looked like if it were in a Studio Ghibli movie, or felt the lingering dread that anything I read or saw online is neither authentic human expression nor correct.And yet, despite these revolutionary changes to society, in its annual Communications White Paper Japan’s Ministry of Int

We discover the truth behind Japanese portion sizes. For many years, 7-Eleven Japan has been famous for its coffees, which are a major driver of sales for the convenience store chain. As a pioneer in offering affordable, freshly brewed coffee in convenience stores, many customers still make 7-Eleven their top choice for a cup of Joe, but now they can get an even bigger fix, as the chain has now added a never-before seen extra large size to its lineup.With regular and large sizes satisfying cus
Second tip option added to service that also has Oshi Support.Many would say that along with delicious food and great service, no tipping is right up there among the best parts about restaurant dining in Japan. However, one cashless payment provider wants to play a role in changing that last part, and now includes a prompt encouraging customers to leave a tip.Tokyo-based Dinii actually has two different tipping systems, with the second being added this past May. It introduced its first take on t
Tests to become more like regular Japanese license exams, which is to say, crazy hard.As we reported last year, there’s been a recent upswing in applications for Japanese driver’s licenses by people who don’t even live in Japan. This is because Japan has a system known as “gaimen kaigan,” which allows residents of certain countries to convert their own licenses to official Japanese ones.Other countries have similar systems, but Japan’s was surprisingly lenient
There’s something missing from Japan’s summer soundscape.While “hot” and “humid” are often the first words used to describe summer in Japan, there’s a special soundscape to the season as well. The gentle ring of a windchime, the clink of a spoon against a shaved ice dish, or the sound of fireworks, either bursting overhead at a festival or echoing from the next town over, are all ways you ears will tell you that you’re in the middle of a Japanese summer.This year, though, there’s an audio

With no experience and 100-percent locally-sourced materials.When it comes to interior decorating, a lot of times a little plant life can help make the space feel more warm and welcoming. Our plant-loving Japanese-language reporter Go Hatori has long had a small tradition with his family, where they maintain a single-stem vase on the dining table.As he delved further and further into the world of single-stem vases, gradually his interest in the world of Japanese flower arrangement, named ikebana
