For a view of modern-day Japanese culture, I recommend you watch recent j-dramas, perhaps even some slice-of-life anime.

Oh no no.
Not all in Japanese.
Just a few phrases and so on.
Because the dragon guy lived centuries ago so, all he knows is Japanese so Hiro and Shina will try and help him speak English.

I don't plan on releasing it as an only Japanese manga.
I was planning on just having a bit of Japanese in it because it will be taking place mostly in Japan.

Hope that got through clear enough.
