What should I ask for from Japan?

Question:


well my friend is going to my favorite country, Japan, and he promised to get me whatever I want from there. of course it has to be inexpensive, but I'm sooooo excited about getting something from japan that I don't even know what to ask for! I kinda want a neko (cat) hat or some kind of Japanese doll maybe? I don't know, any ideas?

Answer:


Ask your friend to bring something that was actually 'Made In Japan'. Most of the souvenirs nowadays seem to have been made in China, even though they have Japanese scenery on them.
Folding fans, interesting key chains, pencil from a 100yen shop, mugs, omomori from a shrine or temple etc. are all inexpensive, unique souvenirs.
