I was GIVEN one when I arrived in Japan. It said ジョージ.. the source of a lot of embarrassment until I lost it!!! I dont NEED one as bank accounts can be operated without one, so I never bothered to get a new one. I always advise my pals that come to Japan not to get one.

You don't have an inkan!?!

I went over to the kei jidosha kyokai to register a car the other day with a friend who didn't have an inkan and it was a f**king nightmare.

Everyone I speak to thinks katakana inkan are cool. Foreign people with hard to read phonetic kanji on their inkan generally look a bit twattish IMHO.

I'm foreign and proud to be so.

カタカナ　ミー　アップ　ビアッチュ！！！
