Omg Okinawa is beautiful. It's the place i want to visit the most in the world. And other places aswell in Japan.

Atleast i have visited it in Yakuza 3(龍が如く3, "Ryū ga Gotoku 3") @ Playstation 3

It's my dream to visit Japan and Okinawa. Something i must do in my life.

I'm bumping this thread as it seems unnecessary to make a new one.

I'm currently living in Tokyo and will be for the rest of 2012. I spent a night at an internet cafe tonight which gave me the idea that maybe i could play sc2 here, although they didnt have it installed (only some japanese games ive never heard of before).

So it seems you can't get a korean copy while in Japan? Shouldn't that be the best server to play on as far as latency goes?
I already have an EU acc but I'd prefer to play without too much ping.

Oh and yeah, do i need get a new copy of sc2 and install it myself on the cafes computers? is it even allowed to do so?
Or does anybody from the area know a specific cafe where i can go directly to play sc2?

A lot of Japanese players have NA accounts and they use a TW account to get access to Korean servers.

I'm guessing most are military of some kind...there are a lot of bases in Okinawa. I play on the NA and SEA server from Okinawa and there is no noticeable lag to either. My profile on NA is operator.103 and I'm a low masters Zerg if anyone wants to play.

Hello.
I'm brazilian and I just started to learn Japanese. I finished learning all the hiraganas two weeks ago and I'm currently working on Katakana. I'm not able to speak anything in japanese (just know some words), but I would like to talk with you guys, do some communication and learn more about Japan and japanese.

Hey, I'm pretty much at the same "stage" as you learning japanese. Are you learning by yourself or taking classes?
If you got any website / pdf to share, please let me know.

I live in Hawaii now but I'm a Japanese native. I go back often to my grandparents place in Nara and Zama (Kanagawa). I'm a noob on NA server Accelerator.267. I'll probably be staying my whole summer vacation in Nara.

www.guidetojapanese.org <--- this site is really good. I personaly go to language school in Tokyo but i use this site sometimes for things we havnt gone through in school yet.

I still don't know where to find a net cafe where i can play sc2... is there no japanese person living in Tokyo here that knows?

Japanese people would probably be good if they d be as dedicated with RTS games like they are with Fighting, Racing and Role playing Games.

Dont really think SC2 has some kind of popularity over there.

If you want to play SC2 in Japan the center of the information is here : http://starcraft2.jpcommunity.com/sc2/
There's even a LAN next month : http://starcraft2.jpcommunity.com/sc2/modules/news/details.php?bid=231

I won't be there though, not playing SC2 anymore >.<

ども!I only watch variety shows and dramas and check up all words I don't understand at jisho.org. But this site seems good for someone who doesn't care with ever learning from the scratch (I learned Japanese by living and communicating with Japanese people). 90% of what I ever say in Japanese is slang, so yah. Thansk. =D

Regarding a place to play SC2 in Tokyo, try "e-Sports Square":
