It has been months since Tekken 8 director Katsuhiro Harada was made painfully conscious of followers’ grassroots motion to get an official Waffle House stage within the long-running preventing recreation sequence. After having obtained tons of details about the American Southern Diner chain through memes, viral videos, and earnest replies from fans, Harada continues to be baffled on the “tradition” of Waffle House.
I’ve already obtained quite a lot of… no.. tons of knowledge from everybody about this retailer earlier than, however let me ask one query from a unique angle this time.
Why do fights like this between waitstaff and prospects occur so typically within the restaurant?
I’ve by no means seen plates… https://t.co/RLMnYeszqc— Katsuhiro Harada (@Harada_TEKKEN) June 3, 2024
Yesterday, Harada took a unique strategy to his inquiry into why followers have been so adamant a couple of Waffle House Tekken 8 stage. As a substitute of asking who and what Waffle House is, as he did on the finish of March, Harada requested his X (previously Twitter) followers why fights occur so typically at Waffle House to warrant its unrelated fame because the unofficial American battleground.
“Why do fights like this between waitstaff and prospects occur so typically within the restaurant? I’ve by no means seen plates and chairs flying round like this, particularly in Japan (and the composition shouldn’t be buyer vs. buyer, however buyer vs. waiter),” Harada wrote in a quote retweet of a Waffle House combat video. on X. “I do not suppose it’s just because it’s ‘open 24 hours and there are a lot of drunks.’ What sort of tradition is that this?”
Harada went on to voice his stream-of-consciousness ideas on Waffle House because the unofficial American preventing battleground by admitting he wouldn’t be capable to grasp its standing in America even when he took 70 enterprise journeys to the States.
“I must study extra about American society,” Harada wrote.
