    Japanese people apparently love American culture. It just goes to show you that people will be attracted to anything that is foreign to their everyday lives.

    I'd link to that topic I made about Japanophiles, but I can't see it because I'm EoEO banned. Poo.

    Seriously.

    Japan seems like a really interesting place to visit but I think it's so silly when people act like Japan and Japanese culture/people are perfection. Obviously that isn't true.

    Anyway, I'd love to visit one day. I hear it's very clean there. I like clean. Plus, I looove Japanese food. Shrimp tempura, gimme!
    >.> Japan is dirty, sexually.

    I heard its common to see sex in public, including in streets, subways, in shops, etc. How much of this is true though, I'll never know.

    Take a trip there first, Japan is probably the hardest country to adapt to, you'll probably love visiting there, but I doubt you'd enjoy living there...

    I've heard several stories about public male self pleasuring acts in subways and what not. >.< I think that's one of the reasons why they have a seperate train for girls and guys so no one gets raped...

    Are you saying the rest of the world stereotypes themselves or the rest of the world stereotypes them? Either way, I disagree.
    A large portion of the rest of the world stereotypes them. I don't know if they earned that stereotype as I've never been to Japan, but I've known Japanese people (well, at least one that I can think of, anyway) who complained about how everyone thinks that all Japanese people are into anime and weird shows and sushi and the like. Japanese people are just that - people.
    But that's true of any culture. Except Jamaicans; Jamaica is one big Jamaican stereotype.

    That would be like a Japanese man moving to Australia to be a digerydoo player. Or something. It's infringing on their artform.

    Japan is a pretty cool place, I wouldnt want to live there because it has volcanic land.

    Hmmm. Well I can't say I love Japan, because I haven't been there. But it is a pretty awesome looking place. Mostly I just like the food ^_^

    Never been to Japan, but it isn't a place I want to go. They bring out great games, but I just wouldn't want to go there.

    Their history is also interesting.

    I had considered moving to Japan, because I had heard lots of good things about it. But then I was told that I would be perved on more in Japan, than in the north west of England, which is really saying something. They may have been joking of course, but the mere idea was enough to concern me.

    If I did that I wouldn't like anything.
    Only if you like anything that is perfect that is.
