「彼は靴を脱いで、階段を上った。」most Japanese thing ever.

Saikawa was actually pretty badass there. Too bad he’s kinda boring the rest of the time with zero hobbies or interests outside of his work.

Is she though?? Most of the time he doesn’t show much interest in her either.

He devotes literally all of his free time to her! (approx. 5 min per month)

Haha I had a good chuckle on this one as well :rofl:
Especially in an apartment house, I was a bit surprised about that too.

Equally the most Japanese thing ever :sweat_smile: :woman_shrugging:

Anecdote: I have a Japanese language partner who currently works in Germany. He once told me that his coworkers would return home on the Fridays around 2pm, especially in summer, and he said, “What are they doing at home all the time?” - I was not sure whether I should laugh or cry… :flushed:
