"An exciting year ahead for the queen of ink”
“Kat gives us a glimpse of the tattoo of her mother”
“Kat says that the stars lining her eye are a symbol of being heavily tattooed, yet still being able to carry yourself in a feminine way “

I'm not sure how many posts I'll make about Business Japanese, but probably more than one so I say the part one is warranted, haha.
Feel free to add anything or any questions in the notes! Like I said, this isn't a fully comprehensive infographic. Also, what do people think of the lined paper style background for the title page/intro? I think they look kinda cute for the introduction, but not for the informative parts...
One thing I will add that I couldn't fit on the slides: I think some textbooks don't have super clear distinctions between 「謙譲語Ⅰ」 「謙譲語Ⅱ」 and 「ていねいご」, so I only specifically mention 謙譲語 broadly here. Parts of 謙譲語Ⅱ and ていねいご are both described as "extra-modest" in some things, for example! Just keep in mind that my post is a simplification, and if you're interested in formal language, maybe start at learning all of the different keigo categories and what they involve!
Vocab list note: The set phrases in the greetings and closings are all comparable to set phrases in English for greetings and closings of emails. I'm putting these set phrases in their entirety in the list, with a comparable English set phrase as the definition. Do not take these as equivalent phrases! They have a similar feeling, but I am not asserting that they have identical meanings. I'm just offering something comparable in case it helps a person make more sense of them!
The full vocab list + a transcript of the post is under the cut!
A well-done Namie Amuro tattoo.
I love her so much, she was my first contact with Japanese culture, she was the one who made me love tattoos.
I’m so sad about her retirement..
It has been a huge dishonor for you to oppose constitutional reforms, colloquially known as charter change.
As an alumna of the good university, I am here to express my huge disappointment towards the university student government, or USG’s stance against something that will make the Philippines into a respectable member of the international community.
Him: Hello, sorry for the late response... I remember you way back, I'm sorry for what I did to you, it was immature of me, and I don't think you deserve to be treated like this...

In Memory of Ozkie
Do this, in memory of me
Travelling the past
from the utmost extreme;
to the middle of nowhere
Somehow, their worldview
is only limited to
Tokyo to Osaka;
Manila to Cebu;
Los Angeles to Las Vegas
They never explored,
the extremes stretching from
Hokkaido to Ryūkyū;
Batanes to Tawi-Tawi;
Alaska to Florida; perchance
Two extreme, polar opposites
simply met in one place,
where they're literally
travelling the past
of yours truly
If you're reading this,
you know I'm dedicating this
to my dear beloved mentor,
who suddenly departed...
but there are signs,
that he might not last long.

I personally do not have tattoos, but I admire women with good looks, who do not shy away from flexing their ink collection.
