In the continuing rivalry between
east and
west in
Japan, these are some things said about
Osaka natives by
Tokyo natives.
Osakans are all yakuza
Osakans wear shoes in their houses
Osakans all walk on the wrong side of the escalator. (When in Tokyo walk on the right. Stand on the left. Opposite in Osaka. )
Their Kansai dialect, is grammatically wrong and they should speak the Tokyo dialect
Osakans speak too loud
Osakans are very rude in speak and mannerisms
Osakans speak in a tone that sounds like they are angry
Conversations between Osakans always sound like a manzai comedy routine by the way they frequently use tsukkomi and boke
Still can't get over that fact that the forces of Tokugawa Ieyasu beat Hideyori Toyotomi in the summer war of Osaka of 1615 without saying that he cheated
Osakans are all die-hard Hanshin Tigers fans
Well, you all know that stereotypes and generalizations are true don't you?
By the way, most Japanese love Osaka and Osakans. This humble nodist happens to go there once or twice a year and be fluent in nise kansaiben.
