I don't really have any opinions, except that Japanese motorbikes rock, but I did read this a while back : http://outpostnine.com/editorials/teacher.html . You have to read that to believe it.

Japan is not cool because it's Japan;

It is different. That's why it's so god damn cool.

The only country I would like to visit and stay if I could speak the language easily.

Don't forget "skeleton" versions of EVERYTHING.

I'm kidding, I like a lot of stuff that comes from there. However, on the note of anime ... most anime is animated in Korea, at least now.

What's with the need to make everything as small as possible? I mean, I know I'm American and I should like things as large as they can be and everything, but, I do like things smaller (electronics), but, some of the things they develop there are microscopic.

I wouldn't want to live there. Too many people and way too humid. I'd probably die from blood loss from having nose bleeds every day.

Heres a post I made in a different forum on this very topic. Forgive the lack of capitalisation but it seemed appropriate at the time.

whats with the whole japan thing? i look through my msn list, half the people have japanese characters in their name or names like Rokiro or whatever, what the hell is that. they all watch anime, some of which is good i have to admit but the majority of it is annoying crap, or cartoon bestiality porn. also the ^^ emoticon pisses me off. it has no mouth. you cruel bastard, bringing an emoticon into the world without a mouth. to summarise, if it wasnt for awesome tv shows like takeshis castle and iron chef, i would fart in japans general direction. and dont put random japanese phrases into conversation. and just because a movie is anime doesnt make it good. the same movie done with live action would be just as good, if not better. in fact it would likely be better since only 0.5% of anime is done well. the rest has annoying jerky motion and more detail seems to be in the MOTION LINES than the characters themselves. to be fair however this style is often aimed towards children. that doesnt stop 20yo geeks watching it tho, just because its japanese and supposedly that makes it good. just being anime, or japanese, does not automatically make something good. there is bad anime. there are bad japanese things. not all anime is bad. not all japanese things are bad. but its sad to see so much bandwidth hard drive space and dvds used up by CHILDRENS TELEVISION SHOWS.

wow, that felt good.

Apart from their technology and scyscrapers, there isn't really much. I once learned their alphabet that consists of 45 letters. I got 100% for the test and half a year later, I forgot every single letter.

Wait what does you forgetting something you learned have to do with Japan? Is that supposed to reflect poorly on their alphabet?

... shouldn't you be mad at the non-japanese people who do this instead of the country who has the same understanding as you?

Besides: Samurais and Ninjas rock ... so do fortune cookies ... except those are Chinese ... just like 2/3rds of the Japanese language.

Not to post again too soon, but, can someone answer a question for me ...

Why are the bulk of people who're apes**t over Anime (not very good anime either) completely distraught off of manga? The most common excuse I've heard is, "I need color in comics" ... but that's just bulls**t. Most people who say that still haven't read anything good.

Anyway, I was just wondering thoughts on that ... if it's ever come up.
