I browse shit on Amazon Japan, and the sizes are in inches, eagle heads and football fields. We use the metric system here, Amazon!

Doesnt japan also drive on de left side of the road? Because ive noticed that countries that drive left tend to use mixed, like the uk uses cm and inch (also stone which i really dont understand). But thats just my brainfart

Should be just one. Banana for scale. ALL scale(s)
