You can make friends with people in Osaka immediately if you use these 13 phrases

Osaka is a city of business and laughter, therefore a characteristic of this area is that a lot of the people that live here are friendly.
Japanese people often say that “Tokyo people aren’t friendly, but Osaka people are”, however it seems that many foreigners also have this impression as well.
With that said, I would like to introduce 13 phrases to use so that you can easily make friends with people from Osaka.
