Features: This book examines Japanese vocabulary from a comparative cultural perspective, meticulously observing people's daily lives and colloquial language. It analyzes Japanese words, lists everyday behaviors and social interactions of Japanese people, and pays great attention to often overlooked phrases, actions, and even psychological aspects. It summarizes the psychological characteristics of dependency in Japanese people and establishes a unique psychological analysis method and theory targeting them. Written in easy-to-understand language, the book explains various puzzling phenomena in modern society. This book represents the author's first attempt to apply the concept of dependency to analyze various phenomena, so for him, it was like gently hammering with a small mallet, which is one of the book's distinctive features. Additionally, while the theories discussed are not entirely flawed, there are still many areas that need supplementation regarding the completeness of the dependency concept itself, which is undeniable. As a result, the book has been widely loved by readers while also receiving criticism and even being misunderstood in some aspects.
