Translation Notes/Trivia

• AWOL is a military term that stands for “absent without leave (permission)”
• **Spoiler** Embedding “vertical messages” is a common practice because Japanese can be read both vertically and horizontally, and every letter is the same width so it lines up nicely.. More examples. (The picture is that of a TV show description. The TV show is a Tohoku earthquake special, describing how everyone in Japan is rooting for Tohoku’s recovery. The vertical column reads “Don’t give us Tohoku. We are in this together.”)
• Culture: In Japan, toddlers are taught to raise their hand when they cross the street so the cars can see them.
• The noodles are described as literally “nostalgic noodles” or just noodles that taste like the noodles from one’s childhood.
• Culture: One of the biggest problem in Japan is that population is shrinking, and schools are closing, due to decrease in the number of incoming students. My own elementary school went from 4 classes per grade when I was there, to only 2 classes per grade now.
