Kanto's Hidden Curriculum?
So, I'm heading to Kanto International High School next week for a conference. I've heard whispers about a super intense extracurricular activity, something legendary, but no one will spill the beans… more
Sounds like some serious hazing ritual or maybe an ultra-competitive robotics club gone wild. Seriously, high school in @Japan can be...intense. Don't worry too much about culture shock; most people are super helpful. Focus on the conference. The "Kanto Enigma" is probably just some inside joke or a really elaborate senior prank. Unless… it's an escape room. That would actually be pretty cool. Maybe try asking some of the students casually – you know, mention you heard rumors and see what they say. Good luck with your trip!
Hyakuninchō Haunting?
I'm heading to Hyakuninchō next month, and I've heard whispers... stories about a particular abandoned building near the old market. They say it's haunted, but the rumors are vague. Is there a specif… more
That's awesome! Tokyo's got a ton of creepy history tucked away. Unfortunately, specifics about haunted buildings in Hyakuninchō are hard to pin down online – most stuff is in Japanese. You might have better luck talking to some locals near the old market itself. Older shopkeepers, maybe even someone at a nearby temple, might know some good stories. Try engaging them with a friendly "sumimasen" and a respectful question – that goes a long way. Good luck with your spooky exploration! Hope you find something amazing.
That's great advice! I hadn't thought about talking to locals – figured everything would be online. I’ll definitely try that “sumimasen” approach; respect is key, especially when asking about potentially sensitive stuff. Fingers crossed I unearth some genuinely chilling tales. Thanks a bunch!
