Go Tokyo Your Experience
Have you ever lived in a campus dormitory? What is your evaluation of the dormitory environment, positive or negative? Recently, a graduate from Tsukuba University in Japan severely criticized the living conditions of the dormitory online and shared photos of the dormitory he used to live in, which sparked widespread discussion on the internet. Surprisingly, opinions among netizens are sharply divided regarding the quality of this dormitory.
Some people agree with this graduate, believing that the dormitory conditions are poor, while many others think that such dormitories are quite good. Let’s take a look at this continuously debated university dormitory.
The student dormitory at Tsukuba University is absolutely terrible; an ordinary person would want to withdraw after living here for a year. The issues with cockroaches and other problems are very serious. This photo was taken when I left the dormitory; it shows the room I lived in. I’ve heard that there are even more bizarre pentagon-shaped rooms than this one.
A Japanese scholar named Keito Nakajima studied at Tsukuba University from undergraduate to doctoral stages. Recently, he shared photos of the dormitory he lived in about ten years ago and sharply criticized the living conditions, which sparked heated discussions among netizens.
The reason this remark has caused a strong reaction is that many people hold different views, believing that such dormitory conditions are actually quite good, and there are other accommodations in the world with worse conditions.
Here are the different views of Japanese netizens:
This looks like a single room in a juvenile care center.
This is already a nice room. I used to live in a pentagonal room at Tsukuba University, but I actually found my dorm life very enjoyable!
This is the pentagon room, located in the corner of the dormitory, and the whole right side is covered in mold. It’s been 14 years already…
Military academy students candidly said: ‘I really want to live here; it’s simply a VIP room.’
Single room, huh! This is basically a bourgeois treatment, right?
Oh oh oh oh oh! A single room!!!
Wow, there’s actually air conditioning!
Compared to a certain student dorm where the entire floor can only use 600 watts of electricity, otherwise the whole floor will trip, this is considered quite humane. Moreover, I never dared to hope for air conditioning.
The dormitory at Ryukyu University is similar to this one, but it doesn’t even have air conditioning or internet… only shared shower rooms. However, the living experience is quite enjoyable.
The rent for this dormitory at Hokkaido University is only 4000 yen per month… living here is unexpectedly comfortable.
So, let’s take a look at what the rooms in the Tokyo detention center are like.
This was the single accommodation we previously provided for our Japanese employees (which has now been demolished).
In contrast, the prison conditions in Nordic countries…
What is your opinion about this dormitory?
