(2717) Does that mean that Japan isn't Asia?

Or "Ajia" as it's called in Japanese. As anyone can easily (?) understand, it is a super-market with products from other Asian countries. I still find it a little funny, though.

I think that name for the supermarket is very creative.

Well, it does convey the meaning they want, for sure. I just find it interesting that the Japanese don't really include themselves when they are using the word "Asia".
