Description
Learn Japanese through everyday stories.
When you hear a friend’s story, it sticks. That’s because it’s full of context, emotions, and real-life moments. I believe that’s how language learning should feel.
I share stories about daily life, language, and culture in Japan to help you absorb authentic Japanese naturally and at your own pace.
Full transcripts with furigana are available on my website

to support your learning.

Today I talk about my favorite manga, "Coji-Coji." It is written by Momoko Sakura, the creator of "Chibi Maruko-chan." Coji-Coji looks cute, but his words are very deep, almost like Zen philosophy.His answer to the question "What do you want to be in the future?" teaches us an important lesson about living in the "now."I also talk about the style of Japanese radio programs and my idea to make a new jingle.I hope you enjoy this episode👉Get the transcripts with furigana on Okkei Japanese websitehttps://www.okkeijapanese.com/🔘Hi.

Do you have something you just can’t stop doing? For me, it is cameras. I have been researching iPhone gear all day. I felt like I was becoming "Atama-dekkachi" or Big-headed. It means thinking too much and not moving enough. So today I went out to test my new setup. I also had a small problem with a screw. In Japanese, we say "neji wo nameru" or "licking the screw" when the head gets stripped. A kind shop staff helped me fix it.👉Get the transcripts with furigana on Okkei Japanese websitehttps://www.okkeijapanese.com/🔘Hi. I’m Okkei.

Walk & Talk in Yokohama. I walked around the city, ate Okinawa soba, drank coffee, and relaxed by the sea. I visited places like Minato Mirai, Chinatown, and a peaceful park, just taking things slowly. There were some shops closed, but that’s part of everyday life here. It was warm, a little cloudy, and felt like a normal, comfortable day in Japan.👉Get the transcripts with furigana on Okkei Japanese websitehttps://www.okkeijapanese.com/🔘Hi. I’m Okkei.
