| The convenience stores... Oh are they so good. The cost of living is much cheaper than where I live as well. I enjoyed strolling around in Akihabara as well as Hiroshima and Kyoto. The anime convention at Tokyo Big Sight was really cool as well. I plan to be back in Japan again in a few days for the next convention. |

The cost of living in Japan is astronomical. Japan was an okay experience. There are so many fucktards in the stations, wasn't good because this was an every day routine for students. And don't label yourself as an otaku. |

| I would think the cost would astronomical now only because of last year's earthquake? I don't know. I do think the idea of living in Japan for a while is interesting. |
 |
| I just wanted to chime in and say that self-proclaimed "otakus" are probably blinded by the glorified parts of Japan highlighted by Anime. Once the initial excitement wears out, Japan is probably no more exciting than living any where else. |

But it's the same for pretty much all countries XD Personally I'd like to live in Japan outside the city. But the worst problem is that it is harder to get a job and somewhere to live outside cities >_>234h432 said: The convenience stores... Oh are they so good.

No I don't label myself as an otaku but I just wanted to share my experiences. Makes we wonder how "in-depth" you need to be in order to become an "otaku" in the first place though. |

| 7+ years of living in Japan now. Now Japan is just like anywhere else home is. There's good and bad, but in the end it's a place to live and work. The novelty is looooong since passed and it's just my regular life now, but that's the best part. Despite maybe sounding dismissive about it I do generally love it here. Man honestly anime hasn't really been that relevant to me for years now. After moving here I started watching less and less and now I watch almost nothing new and the anime culture I know about I learn from just picking it up in day to day life. |
| So japan uses this site too eh., I don't blame them it's a really good database here... but I thought they would be using a japanese site though x3 |

| Probably doesn't count, but I lived in South Korea for 2 Years and visited Japan often. I would love to live in Korea again! Japan not so much. |
 |
| The whole traditional/spiritual aspect of living in Japan makes it appealing. For me, at least. I know not to expect too much out of it. |

NK has something like 8000 artillery battery pointing at Seoul at any given moment iirc. But its unlikely they'll start anything soon since they'll get their butts whooped with fire and sword by everyone if they try it. |

| Why does it matter where you live? You will be a slave to the Illuminati/capitalism, no matter where you live. You will not survive NTHE, no matter where you live; no matter who you are. When human extinction inevitably arrives, you ain't safe anywhere on this planet. Definitely not in Japan. |
