Look, I like a lot of Japanese food but I'm sorry. Japanese curry sucks. It's bland mush. You know why they use the English word 'curry' when they're way closer to India? Oddly enough curry did not come to Japan directly. First the English got it from India and they fucked it up and made their own version. Then they brought to over to Japan where it got fucked up even more. Yes, standard Japanese curry really is decended from English curry. It's weird.

The crazy thing is that there's lots of genuine Indian restaurants in Japan which can have awesome Indian curry. But the standard Japanese curry that they eat all the time (it really has become a staple there) is horribly bland and boring.

If you're ever in Hokkaido, though, you absolutely have to eat soup curry. That's a completely different dish and it's amazing.
