I feel like putting in some effort to learn greetings and how to address people would help significantly when visiting Japan.
Based on anime I know that if you don’t want to sound like a cringey weeb, the two best ways to greet people are “kisama” and/or “teme”
Ah yes. In addition, it's only polite to refer to yourself as "ore," and a true gentleman will also refer to everyone with the -chan suffix.
Actually “ore-sama”
