[Moni0214]

I'm sorry sensei... What is the name of the song?

[andy4907]

Zombie?

[HajisSaya]

She's such a great teacher! And so pretty too!

[DDD033]

I pictured the ghost sprite from pokemon in lavender tower :3 I guessed right yay!

[karolbeatbox]

Hahahaha it was hillarious!

But in some anime this gesture with saying "nyan nyan" means that you pretend to be a cat. Is it true?

[RuvyGrace]

it was not scary, it was funny :D and these lessons are asewome :D

[0KatyChan0]

hahaha xD Learning Japanese Body language is fun with you, Hiroko-sensei!! :D

[arbide3]

Saaadaaakooooo

[boom2000zekrom]

it means when a group of cats are about to pounce on a rabid chipmunk with problems they get scared off by the chipmunk having a spasm that looks like its doing ju jitsu

LOL

[HIKAJO]

do I feel scared??

no but I have I question do japanese people try to scare each other often?

do they tend to do this gesture to friends and (I guess) kids?

[uzerofutube]

You freaked me out...

[remboy3000]

Giraffe? ... ... Oh it's ghost that was obvious >.>

[SavourySweetLime]

(~°A°)~ Ooobaaakeee~~

[YaShuYuOi]

LOL AWWWW you are just TOO cute for your own good :333

And at first I thought the signal meant it was that golden kitty clock doing those gestures lol :P

[kodomonochikan]

「今から蟷螂拳で殺しますから覚悟してください」って思ったのに­な・・・

[utubefcuked]

i did this gesture at a ramen place in tokyo last time, and I got free food

[Typhzorz]

Looks like a karate move or something :lol

[jaymthegenius]

She can never be scary ^_^

[Mistermemy]

[Ashbigbear]

I thought it was a cat pose at first nya? haha

[thefartydoctor]

Aw. かわいい！:-D

[xXZionprincessXx]

[sydonabike]

[uhhbethany]

Thought it was "I'm gonna kick your ass".

[21ryro30]

[apolitogaga]

[cokemiguel2]

yes ldo scary obake

[OrangeZebraTree]

Guy 1: So I was at school today and this girl floated by saying "obake."

Guy 2: I don't believe....

*girl floats by*

Girl:ooooooooobaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­­akeeee

[grumpy0nprozac]

Does Obake come up in Japanese conversation regularly? That would be sugoi!

[demonwx10]

zombie? lol

[secret2812]

you're a cute ghost. LMAO. i like it when you flew and said oooobaaaakeee

[lazokumanova]

how can i find this song pls tell me 

[Kimd94]

Silly question, but i really wanna know the name of the song at the endx) Mind telling me?:D

[hellokittyjapanime96]

Awesome! I like that one. :) It's pretty cool!

[VampireknightgrlKiwi]

I thought that "bleach" also meant ghost in Japanese............ ???Does it?

[blackcelebration23]

@VampireknightgrlKiwi I think it has something to do with Ichigo's hair,as they often mention his hair's colour as weird in the manga and as Ichigo he's the hero,it's normal that the title is about him.Some other people think like me.In fact nobody really knows.

[VampireknightgrlKiwi]

@blackcelebration23 Yeah someone told me it meant ghost and others told me it was named Bleach because when Japanese people bleach their hair it can turn orange even though it specifically says its naturally orange...@.@ soo confusing!

[YoYoSlowmo]

"did that scare you?" "yes it did!" lol

[BogotaDreamTV3]

sensei, How can say in japanese:

Oh so cool!!

Omega sugoi??? O_o

[japanesepod101]

@BogotaDreamTV3 Just "sugoi" is okay :)

[probook4515swindows7]

@japanesepod101 I'm Japanese.We say "totemo kakkoii".

[Chicochi2001]

@japanesepod101 can we also say" kakoii"?

[RhymeBlack]

@BogotaDreamTV3

Sugoi means "Amazing!" or "Wow!" So, yes, just that is fine.

[jakconnor]

[larxene107yuna555]

[gamedevMike]

[rickyruffle]

it means to have a grudge. Right?

[japanesepod101]

[anirudhkrishnamani]

@rickyruffle

[anirudhkrishnamani]

@rickyruffle

welll yeah.. :P

[SilverGunZoO]

The last gesture is, out of my way ?

[wasah88]

[rickyruffle]

it's actually "come over here" O_O

[Nyappyp0per]

No, it doesn't...

[SilverGunZoO]

[darksat6]

[Kaiapodaca]

[CAesuoMykcM]

I think the next gesture means get the hell out! Lol!

[EvilJirachi]

i dunno lol

[Dogster080]

Great stuff!
