    So what does the Japanese writing say? Exactly the same as the English?
    are we sure to say it's japanesse?

    Japanese syllabary characters, there are 3 characters of the Japanese writing system.
    Hiragana, Katakana, Kanji.

    the act of explaining,

    WHILE MY HEART BEATS' OBI shows "AMENT WATASHI NO KODOU NO AIDA."

    'AMENT' is written in katakana as 'アメント.' 'WATASHI', 'KODOU', 'AIDA' is written in Kanji as '私鼓動間.'
    'NO' is written in Hiragana.

    the accepted meaning of a word,

    'AIDA' means 'WHILE.' 'KODOU' means 'HEART BEATS.' 'MY' means 'WATASHI.' 'NO' means conjunctions.

    WATASHI NO KODOU NO AIDA.
    MY (NO) HEART BEATS (NO) WHILE

    The Manchester wristbands show "SHINJYU JAM KYOU HAN SYA."

    'SHINJYU' is written in Kanji. 'Jam' is written in Katakana. 'KYOU HAN SYA' is written in Kanji.
    'SHINJYU' means 'Pearl', but I don't know why 'Pearl' translate literally as Kanji. 'Pearl' is written in Katakana most of time.

    I am not a teacher. However, "I tried to explain. I hope this works somehow.." :fp:

    Something is a cooking. New album next year? New tour? Japan writings all around?
    Friend, you better get ready cause I got a feeling you're in for a treat next year!! :)
    I think, What is difficult about Japanese is the writing system. Hiragana, Katakana, Kanji.
    I thought my explanation was not sufficient.

    Please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_language
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syllabary# ... yllabaries

    I think these links are really good explanation about the Japanese language.

    Yeah, really hope get a tour in 2013. 10 years, man. :corn:
