  • By trying hard at getting a boyfriend.

  • Try your best girl.

  • You are cute and stylish. - I am not...

  • You are gonna be fine. I think you are cute. Do you have an ideal marriage age?

  • You both don't seem to have to worry about that yet I think...

  • Is it because you have an ideal age?

  • My ideal is to marry at 26. - Quick one.

  • Because you want babies soon? - I want to have babies when I am young. - Why?

  • Just physically.

  • When young mothers go to parents meetings, I want to look like a young mum to other mums.

  • You want to be an early mum? - A young early mum.

  • With 26 so how many years do you have to find your husband? - 7 years.

  • Girls you still got so much time!!!

  • No I don't. - Gurl 7years is damn long. Think of yourself 7years ago.

  • Take it slow girl. - Gotcha.

  • What are you scared of?

  • My own greed. There are so many things I want.

  • So "butsuyoku" means "greed" guys.

  • And that is what you are scared of? What do you want so much?

  • Being all cute on the outside, but kind of cold inside?

  • Stuff like that. - Do boys have that too?

  • Boys don't have that. When I break a promise, my girl is super scary.

  • She might say "It's fine" but the truth is...

  • It's NOT ok AT ALL.

  • I am freaked out about circadas. They are loud and they pee on people. - They pee on people?

  • If you try to catch or fan them off, they will go peeee on you. It's gross. Pee is gross.

  • I hate being alone in dark places.

  • Not being able to see, having something suddenly coming out, that is scary.

  • Do you sleep with a little light on then? - Well when sleeping...

  • I turn the light off and close my eyes. Having my eyes open in darkness is scary.

  • Can you visit ghost houses then? - Not at all. I am terrified of them.

  • I am scared of situations where I need to meet a lot of strangers.

  • The concept is scary to you? - I am quite shy.

  • I am also scared of ghosts but...

  • A place with many strangers is scary to me.

  • I am quite shy you see...

  • I will be so afraid!

  • Situations like new term assembly at school or entering a new company? - Yes.

  • When starting a new job and such.

  • But you are speaking alright with me, and you have never met me before!

  • I am fine with people that come up to me.

  • But I dislike situations where I am expected to do the first move.

  • I haven't really overcome that fear. - You have, you already made a friend here.

  • True. Having a similar topic to talk about is a good point. How we became friends...

  • We both are tall for Japanese girls. So that's how we started talking.

  • "You are as tall as I am!" and that's how we became friends.

  • Who said hi to whom?

  • We were both in the same band school club...

  • When going to our school trip, our seats were next to each other.

  • We talked about things that were popular in elementary school like the shape of pencases

  • When talking about this we became friends.

  • When I find a common topic to talk about I feel less scared.

  • But when I don't know what others want or like I feel scared.

  • I am scared of the sounds that insects make. Bees and circadas and such.

  • It really shocks me. I hate it.

  • The insects that you get in Japan are rather large...

  • They are and they will suddenly come up to one's face and shock them.

  • Which insect is the worst of all?

  • I hate the bees here.

  • Can you show how big Japanese insects can get?

  • At least that big. - Does that count for bees???

  • Bees... Yeah there are bees that are this big...

  • And big roaches get that big too.

  • These things will be normally flying about in Tokyo.

  • They suddenly appear. So scary.

  • Scary! I really don't want to meet them.

  • I am a scaredy cat. I hate ghosts and loud noises and such.

  • Can you visit Japanese ghost houses? - NEVER! - Have you ever been?

  • A long time ago. About 15 years.

  • I went when I was little. Now it's a trauma for me. - Between Sadako, zombies and monsters...

  • which one is the scariest?

  • The girl Sadako from the ring. Not being able to see the face is creepy and her coming closer....

  • She is so scary.

  • How do you deal with that fear of yours?

  • When I see something scary I sleep with a plush doll in my arms.

  • I try to listen to music and deal with it.

  • What if a cute little boy brings you a very large insect?

  • I won't touch the insect but... well done for catching it boy.....

  • You will even praise him?

  • I think if he shows me the insect he wants me to praise him... even if its hard for me...

  • I will say "wow good job for catching that" but I won't touch it.

  • What if he says "I will gift it to you!"

  • "Mister insect has a family, so let's set it free!"

  • Those were our questions. Thanks so much.

  • Turns out all those answers were really not what I expected.

  • I expected more like "I am creeped out by this or that" but it turns out

  • more situations is what people are scared of...

  • For example like... not being able to marry and... stuff like that so...

  • That's an interesting one here.
