It’s nice to know that foreigners aren’t the only ones with bad handwriting.
A friend called Aizawa filled in her commuter train pass form. A machine scanned the handwriting and printed the name on the pass. Her new name is Fizaku (the bottom line in the example). Close. Very close.
Fortunately, Fizaku is just a nonsense word in Japanese. Aizawa-san thinks it sounds sort of German.
