Thanks for the tips! I've asked my family back at Argentina to check everything, and I think I might just make it for the job experience requirement with my freelance work experience on top of the time I worked for hire during the last few years. Gotta keep my fingers crossed and hope things go through!

Note that when the government ask for 10+ years experience, they really mean 10+ years experience. I applied with 9 years, 359 days and was rejected. After a week's contract work, I reapplied with 10 years, 1 day experience and sailed through the application process in no time.
Woah, that's one good tip! I'll make sure to check and re-check the numbers to see if they add up, since I'd hate to realise I end up running short by a few weeks only after I'm already deep into the process.

Beautiful weather today. My student canceled so I ended up wandering around the Tokyo, Yurakucho, and Otemachi stations.

It's not up to me, though.

I like it more. I'm pretty sure it's smaller, but they went all out on the China theme.

I wandered around the same area with a friend last night.

btw:
I wouldn't know how to react properly in a situation like this one:

This isn't meant to be insensitive, but WOW that ash cloud looks incredibly gorgeous before it hits.

Yeah, wow.
Also I loled at "やばいな、これ". It was so obviously yabai.
Edit: I just watched the rest of it. That's terrifying.
Hey Japan GAF! Question about buying/importing non-Japanese versions of PS4 games. I used amazon.co.kp for TLOU:R last time but I realised only bigger releases are carried by them. I'm thinking of grabbing Shadow of Mordor but I don't want to wait until December 12th for the Japanese release... any suggestions?
I live 2 or 3 hours away. Didn't see any smoke or anything though...
*gulp*

Formerly worldrevolution. The only reason I am nice to anyone else is to avoid being banned.
Outside of grabbing it from a city, I used to use yahoo auctions. You usually find someone/a store with stuff. I think I used hexagonny a few times.

Depends on the game. Some titles you want physical for the gaijingamers resale/trade.
Tag begging = ban.
Cheers, I'll have at look at yahoo auctions! And yea, if I can I stick to physical releases if possible.

Any of you guys living near Koshigaya? Would be great to meet up some night around there.

If you check amazon.jp they usually have sellers who got western titles also.
わかった(*^_^*)
Hmm, I've been in Kyoto three weeks, and I've done no sightseeing. Oops.
I use that, is it wrong if I'm asking suggestion from people who live there? wow
Screw neogaf gatherings go to Toba in Mie ~

I ain't gonna tell you where to post, but we finally have two threads to split the conversation up. People from this thread frequent there too so there's no reason to ask tourist specific questions in the non-tourist thread. I've only been to Hokkaido for the same reason so there's not much to say other than the same old shit.
You could use the likes of Playasia, though their pricing isn't all that great (but isn't a big deal if you're buying most games as they're released). Just be prepared for the quirks of Japanese delivery services! I've had situations in which I literally cannot be around to receive deliveries (unsociable working hours), and yet they refuse to let me use the signature release method.
Well, I did experience the 3/11 one first hand in Sendai and have been to the affected areas a couple of times... and I still like the average 10 second wobbles. I guess I'm broken.
I can after November 10.
Bit selfishly hoping it closes school on Monday... sure, the kids will have to do their test on Tuesday, but that just means I get another day to lesson plan...
