One aspect that tutorial ought to touch on is the use of idioms. Every language and culture has unique ways of expressing common thoughts. Japanese idioms (and I mean translated into English) are likely to be the least accessible to the typical person, due to the very large cultural divide between western societies and oriental societies. I think most westerners can fairly easily pick up on German, British, or American idioms, but Japanese culture has entirely different historical roots. This would apply to simple things like the manner in which you greet or take your leave of someone, as well as more complex ideas about fulfilling duties and responding to authority. In other words, the tutorial ought to provide a foundation for understanding the way that a Kusari citizen relates to other citizens specifically, as well as the general society around him.
