Koohii Story 1 There´s a tendancy in Japan to make the younger members (kouhai) clean up after the older members (senpai) of a group, which results in a lot of grumbling and whining. "Well old boy," a senpai might say, "If you did as much work with the mop as you do with your mouth, you would have been done an hour ago".
