Let's Play Shiritori!
Shiritori is a Japanese word game where each person has to provide a word based on the final kana of the previous word with the following rules:
1. No word may be repeated. Repeating a word means you lose and the game is over (but we might restart it).
2. You can't use a word that ends in the kana 'n' (ん). As there are no words that begin that way, if you use such a word, you lose and the game is over (but we might restart it).
3. Words have to be nouns. If you provide a non-noun, you lose and the game is over (but we might restart it).
4. Words have to be real Japanese words. Loan-words are fine as long as they are nouns.
5. NEW SPECIAL RAJ RULE: No obscure kana.
6. Word must be related to Detective Conan, if it's not, or you fail to explain how, you lose and the game is over (promises, promises).
This is a great way to learn some Japanese vocabulary. I hope a lot of the forum members can get into this.
Here's an example of play:

Just because I don't care doesn't mean I don't understand.

Re: Let's Play Shiritori!
I dunno, but ryo is the contraction of ri and yo, right? The yo is just written smaller

Wow, getting some complicated words. How about some nice everyday words, so people can learn more useful vocab.
