10 things Japan has that NZ doesn't have

1. Toilets with control panels


2. Shrines in the middle of shopping malls

3. Green Tea-flavoured Kit Kats

4. Bunches of schoolkids that wanna have their picture taken with you because you're a foreigner



5. Face Absorb Paper


6. A bajillion vending machines, mostly selling drinks but also ice cream, cigarettes, alcohol (no ID required, but there's a stern warning on the machine to make you feel guilty) and 2-minute noodles. Drinks are either hot or cold, most are only labelled in Japanese.

7. Tommy Lee Jones selling drinks out of said vending machines


8. Bloodthirsty deer



9. Ninja shoes that separate the big toe from the other toes - and rickshaw drivers that wear them



10. and of course, Engrish!
