Mastering the art of Dogeza in Japan is very important and I recommend you that you stick it high up on your priority list if you are planning on coming over. "Dogeza" is when you get down on your knees to apologize - you would use this in situations like where you accidently drop your bosses cat out the window etc.
I heard that dogeza lessons can be a bit on the expensive side so I found the perfect video where you can learn how to do dogeza. Muha.
If you haven't done so, make sure you learn how to eat sushi at the same time too.

Ah, I remember these.  Last time it got me to think it was a real lesson thing but after the comments I had to hit myself in the head.  The reasons I fell for it was:

1. I have absolutely no idea how Japan life lives.  Anime most likely won't show you all of it.

2. I'm a baka.

3. ... I'll find a reason for three later... everything must have a third reason.

It was kinda hard to laugh about it cause the english translator was a bit quiet.  I'd rather read subtitles if it was up to me.  Anyway, thanks Danny for the Japan 101.

as a trained ninja, I was taught never to do degeza.  Instead it's better to slit a throat and then evaporate into the shadows.  Unless of course you've slighted your ninja master.  Now amount of crying will help you there (just makes it worse).

Ueh? I don't get today's third poll option. =P Ah well.

Dogeza, huh. My feet always hurt when I attempt to do it. ^^ And yes, nobody can ever forget the "45 degree angle" sushi rule.

If we get it wrong, do we need to disembowel ourselves with a dagger or something?

This looks like a deleted scene or extra footage from JAM FILMS 2. But nevertheless, a real joy to watch, especially with the English narration :D

asking forgivness is not a sign of weakness but rather a show of respect. you show another person that you were disrespectful and you are willing to show it in a (certain) manner.

This way is just plain wierd. If your were a warrior that will get you killed...
