Yeah, so I found this tonight. Typed "pisuta" into Google with the help of Kotoeri and came up with this. http://www.lapista.co.jp/

Thought I'd share...

the Japanese don't spell "pista" right in katakana... you would expect it to be ピスタ, but they actually spell it ピスト. took me a while to figure that out...

My fascination with all things Japanese ended some years ago. Now, they just help me pay the bills sometimes, and I no longer have to explain why I only have one girlfriend.

isn't 1 girlfriend usually considered "the norm"...? how many did you have before?
