*Imagines Valentine-san saying "sakana, sakana!!" to random Japanese people on the streets of Tokyo*

There are usually 5 things that I learn before visiting another country.

1. Hello (konnichiwa)
2. Thank you (arigatou gozaimasu)
3. How much? (ikura desu ka)
4. numbers (http://sp.cis.iwate-u.ac.jp/sp/lesson/j/doc/numbers.html)
5. Where's the bathroom? (toire wa doko desu ka?)

These should get you quite a bit further than sakana!
