on j-panese toilets you can get a spray, or bidet, with the push of a b-tton.

a island nation to the east near korea.
often overrated by anime junky.
many people in north american and parts of europe have many misconceptions about j-pan. many believe that the country lives, eats, sleeps, and breaths anime and people still walk around with swords and ninja and shoguns are still about. even though weapons have been banned from civilians for years. many people think j-pan invented anime, well they are wrong all they did was improve on the idea of disney cartoons that american gi’s brought over for entertainment. the reason why anime is where it’s at today is because you don’t have people who say animation is for kids nor do you have television producers saying.”you can’t put that on tv because its violent.”

the school system in j-pan is great even though they sometimes go to school 6 days a week depending on the school. although j-pan has little shootings “about 30 a year” more people just get stabbed. teen suicide much like the rest of asia is sky high because of the requirements of the j-panese school system.

electronics in j-pan are advanced even though 90% of them where invented in the us or other places. they go to j-pan to become improved or m-ss produced. stuff in j-pan can be extremely expensive. a small two bedroom one bathroom apartment in tokyo can cost around $700,000 us dollars.

j-pan’s history is varied. from shoguns and warriors of the feudal era to the atrocities of ww2 to stories of honor and respect. although j-panese history cl-sses are very vague on their history and their role in it.

most j-panese people like the western influence because it made j-pan the way it is today. even though it involved the us dropping two atomic bombs on them and they hate they enjoy that the fact the us made them what it is. so it’s a trade off. -that part right there i got from interviewing a j-panese exchange student.-

j-pan as a physical country is a really neat place. from mountains, valleys, rivers and lakes to the sandy and rocky beaches. j-pan is a land of beauty.

so in all j-pan is really a nice country and a great place to visit if you got the money to. but it is not a promise land so many people believe. having been to j-pan my self a few times i must say go to j-pan for the culture beyond anime and electronics and the high-rises of the major cities and see the sights. also don’t think of j-pan as you see in anime and games think of it as a real country with real people like you and me. a good thing to if you go to j-pan is to read up the different festivals and go to them. i guaranty your trip will be worth it.
j-pan is a nice place to visit but not to live. unless you got lot’s of money.
1) world’s second largest single economy (disregarding eurozone).
2) world cl-ss producers of automobiles.
3) world cl-ss producers of small electronic gizmos with no readily identifiable use.
4) world cl-ss producers of animated tentacle-rape p-rn, disturbingly….
5) one of the few countries to feature vending machines with schoolgirl knickers in.
6) has really perfected the -art- of toilet making. music and automatic scent release, from a toilet shaped like a mouth? fantastic!
7) has the world’s second largest defence budget, in real terms.
8) doesn’t seem to do much with that money. one can only -ssume that a giant robot godzilla is around the corner.
9) limited land area. one can only ski for a short distance before smacking into the side of a cooperative bank.
j-pan. an odd place to visit.
bizarre. just a very, very bizarre and frightening place. it’s the only nation where one can buy both p-rn and women’s underwear from that freaky vending machine a block away from your cramped apartment.

women should stay far away from any crowded place, because it’s more that probable that she’ll get groped at least six times before she gets back to her hotel room. if she’s lucky.
dude, i just got back from j-pan. i’m f-cking broke, but i got these dvd’s where cartoon 12-year-olds get reamed by giant tentacle monsters. i feel dirty inside.
a very brutal country. you can buy almost everything you can dream of from vending machines. famous for anime, manga, and disgusting p-rn (scatophagy, vomit, violent rape, hentai). a peaceful, polite country on the surface with a violent undertone. overcrowded; surprisingly clean; extremely high smoking rate; obssessed with electronic gadgets; biggest producer economical, quality but also ugly-looking automobiles.
their music includes cute j-pop to ultra-brutal grindcore. suicide rate is high, people are nationalistic.
i am going to visit j-pan this weekend, should i bring my machine gun?
j-pan, a country often not seen for what it really is. it is one of the world’s largest powers, however, many think everyone wears kimono, watches anime, practices karate everyday, and eat only rice. there is much more to it than that.

-food-
due to being an island, j-pan’s main source of food is seafood. sushi is one of j-pan’s specialties and can be made in a variety of ways. popular dishes include nigiri, gunkan, and norimaki. (source : j-pan-guide.com)

another type of popular j-panese foods are its sweets. some of the most famous are pocky (bisquit sticks covered with a type of icing), pucca (sea-creature shaped pretzle-like snack filled with chocolate), and ramune candies (made after a popular drink called ramune that’s very sweet and comes in a gl-ss bottle with a marble in the neck). these items are shipped around the world and can commonly be found in a local store.

-housing-
in the common j-panese household, many things are different from what you may be used to. when you enter one’s home, you take off your shoes at a front square, switching to slippers (common colour is green).
-bathroom-
when you need to use the restroom, there is another type of slippers available called “toilet slippers”. they are often decorated with cute characters but i believe the most popular ones i’ve seen have a silhouette of a man and woman.
there is a kind of j-panese toilet that a lot of people aren’t used to. most of it is “in-ground”, so for use, you must squat, facing the pipes. thankfully, these are usually seen at public places rather than a home.

-school-
j-panese schools tend to also be different from what most are used to. many students go six days a week, sat-rday being a half day. when you go to enter the school, there is usually rows of cubbies or lockers where you switch your shoes into a kind of white slipper. many girls decorate theirs with magic markers, writing their name or drawing little pictures (even though it’s usually against school rules).
-cl-ss-
instead of changing cl-sses and flipping out because the bell’s going to ring, in j-pan, the teacher comes to you. in between cl-sses, there is a short break, allowing you to talk quickly with your friends. when the teacher arrives, usually what happens is all the cl-ss rises, greeting the teacher, sometimes bowing in unison. the books from your cl-sses all day were to be stored in your desk.
-lunch-
during lunch, the desks in the cl-ss are pushed together to form small tables. students eat, read manga, fix their hair, and talk to their friends. some people visit other cl-ssrooms.
-after school-
the cl-ss is divided into groups. one group goes home, the other group stays to clean up the room (mop the floor, clean the desks off with a sponge…etc.) you can see this during an episode of sailor moon live action. it also shows you what the average cl-ssroom looks like and what happens during lunch.
-cram school-
cram school is a school many j-panese students go to after hours. i know, more school, ah!! it’s exactly what it’s called. it’s to help you get ready for university exams and other information. sorry, i don’t really have much more to say on this, but you can get the idea of a cram school by, again, watching sailor moon live action.
-school uniforms-
practically every public high school in j-pan requries a uniform. for boys, it is typically black pants with a black jacket with a high collar and b-ttons running down the front. for girls, it is a pleated skirt (long in the winter and short in the summer) with a shirt that looks like a sailor (popular in many kinds of anime), or a jacket/vest and shirt. a school logo is usually on the jacket or vest and each school has a different colour scheme for the uniform.
the gym uniform is a shirt and shorts for boys with matching colours (typically white and blue) and girls have a shirt with shorts that resemble outer underwear (typically white and red). the gym cl-sses are usually divided between boys and girls.

-music-
ahhh… j-panese music, one of my favourite things to talk about. it is becoming increasingly popular every year across the globe. aol radio even features a staion t-tled “j-panese pop”, i believe. anyways, the two most known are jrock and jpop (j-panese rock and j-panese pop). even though they’re t-tled ‘rock’ and ‘pop’ the music tends to be quite different from what we’re used to. since i can’t really quite explain the music, here are some popular bands that should be checked out :

jrock : hide (will be missed), x j-pan, hyde, l’arc~en~ciel, dir en grey (going to be taking a tour through america), psycho le cemu, alice nine, miyavi, mucc, and vidoll. (there’s a lot of others, but i just can’t list them all!)

jpop : ayumi hamasaki and gackt (like i said, lots more, go check it out!)

-fashion-
j-panese fashion tends to be a bit more wild than american fashion (even though popular fashion in j-pan is becoming increasingly more american).

-fruits-
fruits is a magazine that shows pictures of j-panese street fashion, one of the purest forms of modern day j-panese fashion. you may think the clothes don’t match, but to others (including myself) think it’s pure genius! for a “fruits look”, it usually requires a lot of layering.
-lolita-
lolita is a childish and elegant look which resembles old fashion clothing with many frills, bows, and lace for the girls, and typically a suit for the boys. gothic lolita, a popular style of lolita, tends to be more dark and usually uses only the colours of black and white, sometimes grey and red. it is a very elegant style and the usually the goal for girls in lolita is to look as childish and pure as possible. a popular clothing company for lolita is metamorphose.

another popular clothing company is h.naoto

there are many more imporant aspects of j-pan, but what i described was j-pan in a nutsh-ll! other interesting topics of j-pan are geisha, history, kimono making, anime and manga, and electronics.
culture of j-pan is often shown in shows such as sailor moon live action and yu yu hakusho.
a country disliked by surrounding countries, especially korea. ( though there are many koreans who admire and embrace the j-panese culture) its bad relationship developed from unpleasant past and government problems between the two. it is economically wealthy and traditional or stereotypical j-panese people are known to be quiet and polite on the outside and have quite different feelings on the inside.
i personally believe koreans should not hate the j-panese people because many just have the wrong idea about korea and its history. although, i do hate the government and its actions in the past and present.
also some people have claimed korea is like j-pan and have copied them, but in truth, j-pan has actually stolen many customs of china and korea.

i apologize for my form of writing. i tried not being too biased but i could not help it.
