No, they have a generally positive attitude toward America and Americans, but it's lower at the moment compared to historical highs due to Trump.

Oh well whatever it is, its usually used to mean franchise in Japan. Twitter man said it himself


No it's not. Source: me and the native Japanese speakers I am currently talking to. I read Japanese more than I do English so stop spreading misinformation.

Here is a dictionary definition you can't read because you don't know what you are talking about:
https://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/jn/112474/meaning/m0u/%E3%82%B7%E3%83%AA%E3%83%BC%E3%82%BA/

I already linked you to the Wikipedia article explaining what a franchise is and what they call it, but again you can't read it so stop acting like you know what you are talking about.

It says the Dragon Ball Series will continue. End of story. Are there different ways to take that? Of course. Does series mean franchise in Japanese? No.

Did you translate using google? Because that kanji they use for series means franchise


How to tell if someone is pretending they know Japanese. They call the katakana word (shiriizu) derived from the English word series, the kanji for franchise. http://jisho.org/word/%E3%82%B7%E3%83%AA%E3%83%BC%E3%82%BA

Alright time to go back to never posting here.


I wasnt but like I said someone tagged me. And I dont know Japanese the Twitter man who translated everything himself said that.

What you said may be proper kanji. Idk.

But he himself said that the specific one they used for series is used to mean franchise. Perhaps both are acceptable there

Like in England. Series means one season or the entire series.

Same thing for that kanji; except most the time its used, its used for franchise.


Like I said it isn't kanji. It's katakana. And it is literally the English word series written in Japanese. That's how you write it. There isn't some deeper meaning. A media franchise is not called a series usually. You can either call it a Media Mix or Media Franchise in Japanese (but written in katakana as with series). https://ja.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%83%A1%E3%83%87%E3%82%A3%E3%82%A2%E3%83%9F%E3%83%83%E3%82%AF%E3%82%B9

I am not saying there can't be nuance to what they mean by series here. I am saying it isn't kanji, it is literally the English word series written in Japanese using katakana.

Are you going to like UW or one of the other schools in Seattle proper? Might be better to move to like Issaquah or Redmond anyway. Should be cheaper and most of the tech stuff isn't in Seattle proper.


I am breaking my no posting on CE rule just to tell you I did exactly this. I used to live in the U-District but got priced out and moved to Redmond. A lot of people move out of Seattle and commute in because public transit is free (actually part of your student fees at UW) or discounted at a lot of universities here. Don't live in a van please. People in vans here are often victims of crime. It is not safe at all. This is not a safe area to be homeless, the police are more likely to harass you rather than help you, forcing you to park in really sketchy areas.
