I've met my old pal Miss Dan on Huaihai road present afternoon. She has been to Japan for years and living in Osaka, the last time we meet up was 2years ago. She often helped me purchase goods on Amazon.co.jp. so I can save lots of money on international airmail postage.
In the Cafe Starbucks, We exchanged the payments and goods on the table.
'It looks like a deal, huh?' - said me.
'Yes, but it is just a deal, isn't it?' - said Miss Dan.
After that, everyone laugh out loudly...
Miss Dan's boyfriend - Hiroki Yakura is a Japanese boy, he come to Shanghai with Miss Dan and will spend a short time vacation here. Hiroki works in a game republish corporation. Then we talk about the video game Shin Megami Tensei as the topic, because I bought a lot of things of this series with their help. (Just like the book: 'Persona Encyclopedia', 'Digital Devil Story - The Novel', game soft: 'Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne - Tsutaya Version' and blah, blah, blah). Miss Dan was the translator between us.
Although Hiroki said that he wasn't the fan of Megaten series, but he likes the artworks of Kaneko Kazuma(ATLUS).
'Why don't you buy yourself the Artbooks: Kaneko Kazuma Works I-III ?' I asked him and he anwsered:
'That's too expensive.'
He told me for most Japanese, to buy a new game soft or artbook will cost their 3-days expenses for eating.
But he didn't know for the Chinese people, to buy a Japanese game or artbook will cost their at least 1-week expenses for eating. (lol) In fact, most of the Chinese gamers can not afford to buy a game.
Finally, Hiroki said he will buy the artbook of Kaneko Kazuma when he back to Japan. Hahah.
Later, we changed the topic to another Megaten video game: Persona.
That's a very pleased conversation with Miss Dan and Hiroki.
Hope they will have a good holiday time in Shanghai.
