Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Gaijin Smash (now Gaijin Chronicles) is the story of Jeffrey "Azrael" Windham, an African-American man who moved to Japan as part of the JET teacher exchange program. It originally started as a blog called I Am a Japanese Schoolteacher, about his experiences teaching English at two middle schools in a Japanese town, but has since moved to its own domain and going further into his experiences as a foreigner in the Land of the Rising Sun, even after he moved on from that job.The term Gaijin Smash is about the "ability" foreigners — especially large foreigners — in Japan seem to have that allows them to often ignore certain customs (and at one point, jump a train turnstile without paying) through sheer force of will and/or Refuge in Audacity (doubly so for Az, given that he's seen as a Scary Black Man by default).Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })In June 2010, the blog was renamed "Gaijin Chronicles". Last updated in early 2016 (a quick update which was preceded by four years of inactivity), the blog has become an Orphaned Series.

Arch-Enemy: "Watson". Kid spends three years of his junior high school life pretty much constantly attacking Az's butt/penis whenever possible; when Az questions him on this, he responds "Honestly, does it even matter at this point?"

Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: After a girls' dodgeball game Az was watching unexpectedly turned from timid to violent, he said if he was in a house and had the choice of facing "a group of Japanese girls in K-Groove Jack Bauer berserker mode" downstairs or "Freddy Krueger, Jason, the masked guy from the Scream movies, Predators, Aliens, and Céline Dion singing the Titanic song" upstairs, he’d go upstairs and take his chances, because he’d actually have a remote chance of coming out of it alive.
