200th!!! J-walk
n_y_japlander on April 9, 2009
I live in Fussa, Tokyo… the city that has one of the largest non-Japanese population outside of the 23 wards of Tokyo (central). Yokota AB is here in Fussa. And with out fail, I'm asked at least 3 times a month by a cop, to see my passport…
Last night on my way from work to the station, with a beer in hand, I crossed the street not in a cross walk… and I get to the other side to see a bike cop coming towards me… I thought I was in big trouble….
*200th comic today!!!! Thanks one and all for giving me the passion to get this far! If it was not for this site, and all of you great readers, Raw Fish would not be!!!!!
**one of you should leave the 4000th comment today… and you know what that means…. the person who leaves the 4000th comment gets a guest strip or something along those lines from me; to show my appreciation….
I'm so sorry that I have no time to leave personal replies to all the comments, but I will in the very near future!!!
Thanks so much for reading and igniting my passion for this!!!

Congratulations on reaching 200 strips. Nice one too. I remember be shouted at for J walking while on holiday in Hong Kong, it's a shock to westerners.

Congratulations on 200 strips! We need more cops asking for passports here in the States.

Thank YOU for 200 fantastic strips (and many more to come, I hope). Raw Fish has been equal parts entertaining AND educational for me... and I just love it! Crossing my fingers on the 4000 thing!

Congrats!!! You've been working on this comic for so long! I know what you mean with the getting stopped in public by the police. Most of my friends have that problem. I guess I don't because I'm a girl (or because I'm half) lol.

Congrats dude! To another 200, Cheers! Jaywalking where I live its an artform. We also have cops on bikes but only on tourist areas.

Konbanwa! I'm glad to live somewhere where I blend in. racial profiling isn't cool. -_-

No one cares about jay walking in England. We don't even have a name for it.

Google tells me its means something along the lines of "Good evening."

Stickfodder and Flup: "Konbanwa" means "Good Evening." Happy 200th strip! ...wait... since when did cops ride bikes?

I wonder if this will be the 4000th comment? =) HOORAY TWO HUNDRED YAY YAY. *hyper* Er, what is Konbanwa?
Stickfodder at 11:09PM, April 9, 2009
Whats "Konbanwa"? And how would a bike cop react to someone your size putting up a fight.
