After eating far too much kaitenzushi for lunch (sushi on a conveyor belt like Yo! Sushi but at a fraction of the price – 100 yen a plate!) I sat down in the community room of the dorm to relax for a bit. However, my attention was quickly drawn to a particular YouTube video by some of the boys. This video is a song about the “future capital of Japan, Nagoya” and highlights all the great things which Nagoya is famous for. The bits I can understand are very funny, but the rest of it is a bit hard to understand since it is in Nagoyan dialect; the translation into standard Japanese can be found on-line!
So in a fit of pride for Nagoya I thought I’d post it. Even if you can’t understand Japanese, have a look because it is inimitably Japanese and as silly as you might expect.
Go! go! Nagoya is about all I could work out – maybe sub-titles in english whould help – but I doubt it
So amazingly Japanese – Obviously they are proud of their city
