This article introduces Japanese culture in depth from Jujutsu kaisen vol.2. In this volume, you can see Japanese unique culture in shopping, housing situation and vending machine.
From this chapter onwards, “Getou” and “Jogo” gather at Shinjuku where the busiest place in Tokyo and plan to overthrow “Gojo”.
The supermarket called “Don quixote” in this scene is a very unique store in Japan, and I would like foreigners to visit it when sightseeing. The store is full filled with goods and categories without being organized by the method called jungle display… It is worth to just to see.
Housing complex
Quote 呪術廻戦 2巻 Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 10
This is the scene that Fushiguro visit dead prisoner’s mother home for condolence visit. This building is very commonplace of public housing which had been built after the war in Japan a lot to support rapid population growth. Public housing where rent is cheap and low-income earners can preferentially live. ( though the building is aging)
Highest number of vending machines in the world
Quote 呪術廻戦 2巻 Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 16
Japan has the highest number of vending machines in the world (population ratio). Nobara complain about the lack of vending machines in this school in this scene, but I’ve never seen country where we can see vending machines anywhere as Japan (in my experience of about 10 countries in Asia, Europe, and North America). The reason behind is that Japanese is busy (or lazy?), Japan is safety etc… such the assumption is introduced in this site. If you have chance to visit Japan, it may be interesting for you to see it.
