Ramen is the Japanese name for a type of noodle or the soup dish containing these noodles. In Japan, ramen as a fresh noodle dish is often sold in fast food-like shops with only a counter or at food stalls in highly frequented areas. Japanese also commonly make ramen at home, as it is an inexpensive and easily-prepared meal. There are also many restaurants specializing in ramen. Almost every locality or prefecture in Japan is known for its own distinctive variation of ramen. It is also readily available as "instant ramen" in supermarkets and convenience shops in Japan as in much of the rest of the world. Some well-known brands in North America are Sapporo Ichiban, Maruchan and Nissin.

Despite some health concerns detailed below, instant ramen is a diet staple with college/university students and the less well-off due to its ease of preparation and extremely low cost - as of 2005, one packet could be bought for as little as 10-15 U.S. cents. Instant ramen is also very resistant to spoilage and can be easily prepared with boiling water, making it a favorite of backpackers and other travelers in conditions offering few technological conveniences.

okonomiyaki,

Okonomiyaki is a type of Japanese pan-fried batter cake with various ingredients.

Okonomi means "what you like", or "what you want" and yaki means "grilled" or "cook" (cf. yakitori and yakisoba) in Japanese, so this dish's name means "cook what you like, the way you like".

The batter is based on flour, grated yam, water or dashi, egg, and shredded cabbage, and usually contains other ingredients such as Welsh onion, meat (such as bacon), octopus, squid, shrimp, vegetables, kimchi, mochi, and cheese. Okonomiyaki is often compared to an omelette, pizza, or pancake because of the variety of ingredients it can contain, as well as the way it is prepared. Hence it is sometimes referred to as "Japanese pizza" or as "Japanese pancake".

Osaka-style Okonomiyaki is prepared like a pancake. The batter and other ingredients are spread and fried on both sides, using either a hot plate (teppan) or a pan. The finished product is then served with further toppings such as okonomiyaki sauce (similar to Worcestershire sauce but thicker and sweeter), nori, fish flakes, mayonnaise (optional), and ginger. When this style of Okonomiyaki is served with a layer of fried noodles on top, it is called modern yaki. When served with a great deal of Welsh onion (so much that the pancake is actually green) it is called negiyaki.

takoyaki,

Takoyaki (literally fried or baked octopus) is a popular Japanese dumpling made of batter, octopus, tenkasu, pickled ginger, konnyaku, and green onion, topped with okonomiyaki sauce, green laver (nori), mayonnaise, and katsuobushi (fish shavings). Making takoyaki requires a takoyakiki, a special frying pan made of cast iron with hemispherical molds.
Although takoyaki can easily be made at home, provided the equipment is available, it is usually considered fast food and is almost exclusively sold on the street. Frozen takoyaki is also available. It is especially popular in the Kansai region but has seen a surge in popularity in recent years in other parts of Japan. In the Kansai region, takoyaki is considered a side dish and eaten with a bowl of cooked rice. Elsewhere in Japan it is eaten without rice as a snack food.

akaihan flavoured onigiri,

Onigiri (also known as Omusubi) is a Japanese rice ball snack most commonly formed into triangle or oval shapes and wrapped in seaweed (nori). Traditionally, the onigiri is filled with umeboshi, shake (salted salmon), katsuobushi or any other salty or sour ingredient. If a person pours vinegar on the onigiri, it transforms into sushi, and a different kind of food. In practice, however, either is used for preservation of rice.

Since the onigiri is one of the most famed and popular snacks in Japan, most convenience stores in Japan stock onigiri in many popular flavors. Specialized shops, called Onigiri-ya, offer handmade rice balls for take out.

gyudon,

Gyudon, often literally translated into English as "beef bowl", is a Japanese dish consisting of a bowl of rice topped with beef and onion simmered in a mildly sweet sauce flavored with soy sauce and mirin. It also often includes shirataki. A very popular food in Japan, it is commonly served with beni shoga (pickled ginger), shichimi, and a side dish of miso soup. Gyu means "cow" or "beef", and don means bowl. Donburi is the generic name for a bowl of rice with a topping.

Gyudon can be found in many Japanese restaurants and some fast food chains specialize exclusively in the dish. The largest gyudon chains in Japan are Yoshinoya and Sukiya. Another large chain, Matsuya, sells gyudon under the name gyumeshi.

He likes to get: clothes, accessories, Gundam things
Favourite colour: purple, black

Fun facts: He is near-sighted, sometimes he wears glasses. When he was younger, he played soccer. He likes he's adam's apple on his body, he thinks it is very masculine. He doesn't like his hands, because they are rather small, and it is difficult to play on the guitar with small hands. He likes sleeping in bed instead of doing it on a futon. He needs completedarkness to sleep. He follows every new fashion. His favourite parfums is Egoist Platinum and CK One; his favourite piece of clothing is jeans; his favourite season is autumn.
When Kaoru was young, he got bored with his original black hair and he began to slowly brightening it to brown. When his parents noticed the change and asked him about it, he told them that the chemicals in the swimming pool were causing it, which is funny, because Kaoru can't swim.
He has "Japanese Zombie Heroez" tattooed on his right arm.

Kaoru is the oldest of the group - and as one, he appears to be the most mature - and he is the stoic leader-sama; all of the other members look up to Kaoru in a way. He is the main composer for most of their songs, and an excellent one at that; because every diru song is different, so he must have an amazing imagination to come up with so many different musical variations. His guitar skills are positively astounding too, he holds his audience captive through his playing.

He rarely smiles - though when he does, it's a definitely heart-warming sight. However, he was the one member of the group who scared all the others when they first met. You can imagine, even the Waru was scared of him! Also he is quite serious and very deliberate. But as adult-like as Kaoru appears - he has a sweet, childish side that he shows sometime: he is a big fan of anime and manga (especially Gundam), and loves to tease Shinya with Die, or simply to joke around.

On concerts, Kaoru remains relatively still, but sometimes he just runs around the stage and pumps the crowd up. He is also famous for headbanging along to the music. He is a very big fan of Hide, he even joined to one of his fanclubs, sent him a letter and got an autograph! Altough he dislikes to admit it, he is very good at drawing.

He likes sports like soccer very much, not like sport-hater Shinya.

Kaoru doesn't wear much make-up - compared to the rest of the group, that is - he only accents his eyes and lips. He has no need to bring out his cheekbones, because they are pretty enough as they are! His hair is ever changing: it tends to go through various shades of purple and pink, even honey brown, and is currently black and blonde.

He wears a lot of black that rarely shows much of his skin. His clothes look comlex (and sometimes bizarre, like the parasite hat O_O), and he states if any of his fans can cosplay his clothes he will be very amazed!

One world: sugoi.
