So, in Kansai they use めっちゃ, and in Kanto 超. But what about the other parts of
Japan? And from where to where exactly do they use these words? Can you also
tell me where these words came from? Derived from what word or so (especially
for めっちゃ, since 超 has a kanji and a meaning.)




Mecha has kanji and was explained in another thread [Significance of the kanji
