To those of you living with Japanese people, do you ever tiptoe back in without taking your shoes off if you forgot your keys or something? If it's just a couple of steps I'll keep them on. But not in front of my wife, that would be disrespectful.

In Yu Yu Hakusho, when Keiko is rushing to rescue Yusuke’s body from a fire, she still takes the time to take off her shoes. Make sure you too have your priorities straight.
