More Pachinko


A girl with a sign showing the way to a pachinko parlor. The kanji at the top of the sign with the yellow background says "nihon" which is the Japanese word for Japan. The katakana, which indicates foreign words, below it says "gurandoinpakuto" when romanized. Can you guess what it means? See the comments for a translation.

The Japanese usually don't put spaces between words. Remember that with the exception of "n" every syllable must end with a vowel. There isn't really capitalization.

gurando<>inpacto = Grand Impact
