Wacky Japanese T-shirts & Hoodies from J-List
Ever since J-List brought out our first "Looking for a Japanese Girlfriend" T-shirt more than a decade ago we've sold a huge number of wacky Japanese T-shirt and hoodies to customers all over the world. The "Girlfriend" shirt has been our top seller, closely followed by our wacky "Beware of Perverts" design and the always-fun shirt that says "In Emergency, Commit Seppuku Along This Dotted Line." J-List helped make Domo-kun the world-famous character he is today, and our Domo-kun line of shirts, hats and hoodies has always been popular with our customers. Recently we've been banging out some great new designs, like our K-On! "Afternoon Teatime" shirt or our tribute to tsundere anime girls. Our T-shirts are printed by our hardworking staff in San Diego (not mass-produced in Asia) and all sizes are full U.S. sizes (not tiny Japanese ones).

I have a request for your t-shirts. When it comes to the Japanese, I'd love for the description to have the Romaji and translation of all the phrases/words. While I can read the Hiragana and Katakana, I can't read the Kanji but I'd love to know the actual Japanese being spoken.

Ah, good idea, I'll try to add to the descriptions. Any that are particularly lacking?

I think most of the shirts could use this. I know I own the Japanese girlfriend t-shirt, which was given to me as a gift three or so years ago. I recognized "Nihonjin" but I was a bit suspicious of the rest of the Kanji since I didn't know it and I was disappointed to not see Romaji for the Kanji when I went to your site. Later, I came to know that "kanojo" is on the 2nd line and I still don't know the 3rd. ^_^;
I was reminded of this with your blog post when I checked out the tsundere shirt. You do mention "Baka Baka Baka!" but not "Urusai Urusai Urusai!" or the phrases (I see "tsundere" is on the shirt).
Just a personal preference as I'm all down for wearing t-shirts with Japanese on them, but I like to know exactly what is being said so as not to wear the equivalent of an Engrish shirt in Japan to a place where I could encounter Japanese folks. *lol*
