That guy doesn't get nervous around anything, I've seen him stare down 6 thugs with oh so much confidence (granted he got his nose broken but still...)
He's just got such a stereotypical view of Japan....fine I only have my grandpas stories and books (and anime & manga!) but I still have realistic expectations.
His checklist is basically: Fool around with swords, be served food, buy japanese armor and then eat some more.
I keep his hopes up of course...he's my friend
This whole thing isn't really a question but...any comments on my situation would be quite nice
