Japanese signs are far away from Western style. Even when it’s about something that could kill you, there is a cute puppy to tell you warning
.
Parisian pink rabbit is a… well, what is that animal?
I’m sure I’ve seen you in a manga before!
Hello, I’m Elphi the Elephant!
Hello, fell free to use my elevator!
Hello, I’m an orange and it makes me happy!
Hello, I am Strawby the strawberry!
Hello, I’m a … Well, am I a monster?
Hello, I’m a dog (and a construction worker as well).
We told you, don’t play with the elevator when you have a dog, a leash, your grandma and a jumping rope.
Hello, I’m Alga the seaweed!
Hello, I’m a cop and I protect people!
Smoking is a little bit weird in Japan. Basically you cannot smoke outside but can smoke inside most of bars and restaurants. To be honest, you can smoke outside but only in some designated area. So, what is wrong with cigarettes? Cancer? Well… If you read signs, you will note it’s not about health but mainly about carrying a hot butt across the streets and… you could hurt someone! So don’t forget: don’t walk and smoke …but feel free to smoke 3 packets of cigarettes when having fun in a bar (yes, Japanese people smoke a lot!)
I’m a poor lonesome cigarette, please adopt me!

Non mais au bout du compte, c’est bien sympa tous ces petits signes tout le temps différents, mais on s’y perd non, le message est pas forcément limpide, voir parfois carrément obscur, avec un effort de décryptage à fournir régulièrement pour une indication déjà croisée, don’t you think?
