href=\"https:\/\/oceana.ne.jp\/column\/8063\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Oceana.co.jp has very an interesting post on Japanese-style logbooking<\/a>, explaining very well that the way logbook sessions are often organised in Japan highlights the passive dependency (\u4f9d\u5b58\u5fc3)\u00a0 divers tend to have towards their guide\/instructor, and how this was expected as a service provided by the operator.<\/p><p>Yukari-san&#8217;s article also describes this approach to logging as somewhat exclusive to Japanese diving (\u65e5\u672c\u7279\u6709), which is not exactly true as, shops offering a post-dive log-book time are actually quite common in other destinations.<\/p><p>In Komodo National Park, many Labuan Bajo dive centres organise a post dive time when guest sit-down with the guide and fish-ID books.<br \/>The instructor\/guide goes over the dive (giving dive parameters to divers wh0 &#8211; gasp &#8211; were diving without a computer&#8230;), and of course he fish spotted, usually over a few beers or snacks.<\/p><figure id=\"attachment_8637\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8637\" style=\"width: 722px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\"

found in Japan, since experienced divers tend to do their own logging (and spotting!), usually in their own time (and of course grab the dive parameters fron their own computer).<br \/>They&#8217;ll mostly rely on guides for site names and the obscure species.<br \/>It&#8217;s true that outside Japan, log-book session are more common in places catering to less experienced divers.<\/p><p>But not always.<\/p><p>It&#8217;s quite common on liveaboards as well, and some resorts (Wakatobi Dive Resort) will often have a live-in marine biologist, helping out with fish-id, and giving little conferences on the local environment to guests, for instance.<br \/>And let&#8217;s not forget famous macro destinations such as Lembeh, where logbooking\/fish\/photo ID&#8217;\u00edng with local

Japanese divers (though some diver will choose to skip it) appreciate this slightly formalised time for sharing with the other divers of the group and the guide, and in certain circumstances (liveaboard cruises, for instance) it can merge into happy hour, with drinks and snacks.<br \/>On a liveaboard we worked on friend of ours is well-known for her intensive (and very lively) logbook\/drinking sessions, which could last over two hours over whiskies and snacks, as she walked divers back through the day\u2019s 4 dives and all they encountered\u2026<\/p><p>Many Japanese divers are also very <strong>creative with their logbooks<\/strong>. <br \/>Japan has a strong diary-keeping culture, dating back to some of the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Poetic_diary\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">first works of Japanese literature<\/a>, and this somehow transpires into the diving world. <br \/>We\u2019ve

<strong>works of art.<br \/><\/strong>This <a href=\"https:\/\/oceana.ne.jp\/column\/8542\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Oceana.co.jp post has fantastic examples <\/a>of such high level
