Here is some feedback on your comments.<\/p>\n

\nWell, I can\u2019t really talk because I didn\u2019t know that Yoron belonged to Kagoshima until I read amo\u2019s comment!

\nDon\u2019t you think shop attendants in Japan offer us too much unnecessary services?
\nWhenever they say \u307e\u305f\u304a\u8d8a\u3057\u4e0b\u3055\u3044, I always want to say, “Really? Do you really want me to come back? Thanks. That’s nice.” I just want to see how they would react!

\nI wonder how many times that sentence is said every day in Japan?
\n<\/strong>
\nI wonder if \u201cmy dear girl\u201d is used in your daily life.
