I dunno what the motivation behind this comic was, but I now want an entire series of Bostonian-Japanese Baseball Girl.
Baseball.
Seriously Japan loves baseball and the mascots that come with it.
Yeah, they even have native word for it, I mean not even a kanji written loanword like sacca or baskettoboru
No shit? What's the word?
It's やきゅう, yakyū
Cool, TIL, thanks!
Now I'm curious as to how many foreign sports have native words. Pretty much baseball and ping pong I think, unless you want to call mountaineering a foreign sport.
