Trends in Tokyo
Best boxing gym?
Is there a specific shop for winning boxing attire considering its Japanese and very famous? A quick google search didn’t yield anything
Finding a truly famous boxing shop in Tokyo specializing in winning attire might be tougher than landing a punch on Tyson in his prime. Most gyms will sell some gear, but for something specific and "famous," you might have better luck looking at high-end sporting goods stores or even browsing online Japanese retailers. Consider searching for boxing equipment in Japanese (ボクシング用品 - bokushingu youhin) to broaden your search results.
Shinjuku Banking Woes?
So, I'm heading to the Mizuho Bank Shinjuku Chuo Branch Office next week to sort out some international transfer stuff. I've heard Japanese banks can be a bit...intense. Anyone who's dealt with them… more
Relax! It's not that intense. Mizuho is pretty standard, just be polite, have all your paperwork in order (and in Japanese if possible, even a simple translation helps tons), and be prepared for a potentially longer wait than you’re used to. Numbered tickets are your friend. Don't worry too much about bowing – a slight nod is perfectly fine. Clear, concise communication is key. Bring your passport, obviously. And maybe some snacks; you might be there a while. Good luck!
