Drinking Adventures in Japan
Gaijin Tonic- New comic from Chris Carlier February 21, 2018There’s a new comic available called Spaboon by the writer of Little in Japan: I have just released a new comic called Spaboon, about the misadventures of a failed pharmaceutical company mascot. Spaboon is a half-spoon, half-baboon hybrid, so when he is laid off by Epoch Pharma Corporation, his prospects are extremely limited, and he […]Roaf
- Mondo Mascots January 16, 2017Mondo Mascots is a new site for those obsessed with Japanese yuru chara, the giant mascots that trot around at street festivals and store openings.

- Little in Japan: A Night in Roppongi January 16, 2017In the latest Little in Japan Dave visits Roppongi. Roppongi used to be party central for ex-pats and tourists (and those who want to meet them) in the 80s and 90s, but now it’s a bit of a decaying dump.Roaf

- Little in Japan: The End of the Line January 11, 2016The first Little in Japan of the new year is about the perils of falling asleep on Japanese trains (which I have done a number of times). It’s a bit of a weird one. Here’s an excerpt: You can read the full strip here.Roaf

- Little in Japan: Trying to Be Something Other Than a Teacher January 18, 2015In the latest Little in Japan comic strip, Dave tries his luck at various non-teaching jobs in Japan, without much luck. It was a nice chance to commiserate with (and poke fun at) my fellow Tokyo creatives, who say they are in bands or writing novels, but are all secretly teachers. Read the whole story […]Roaf
- Dark Horizon January 18, 2015I recently read a copy of Brian Reyes’ outrageous book, Dark Horizon, which he describes as “a vulgar yet playful book of insults”. It’s a spoof of the popular English textbook series, New Horizon, which has been read in Japanese public school since 1965. Here’s how Brian describes it: I thought about the characters from […]Roaf

WE might need that, you never know…..
Yeah, and it’s good to advertise!
Too bad the “Step intoour phone boot, pal.” is misspelled, or it would be the coolest slogan ever!!!
Yeah, I would have bought it! It’s a strange message. Superman changes into his costume in a phone booth, so I suppose he could have “super sex” in there too! I like the phrase “mild-mannered nooky,” too.
But does the pill box do the “superman theme” … without that one you can’t have SUPERSEX … the mood just isn’t right.
Are you working in Japan? Your sharing about Japan is just great.
Thanks! Yeah, I’m an English teacher over here.
