I'm curious what people think of this. Are people happy because our population is already way too high? Are people worried Japanese people will go extinct? IMO it's extremely unlikely to happen any time soon btw. Do you think it's gonna affect the industries in Japan in any major way? Particularly the anime industry as this is an anime forum? What could be the major causes of this? Have Japanese people just lost their libido? Or perhaps become so career orientated they no longer have time to settle down and raise children? Who is going to pay for the healthcare of the aging Japanese population? Are there people that really think dating sims and porn are replacing the need for relationships in Japan? (I find this absurd btw). So yeah what do people think? Do people really even care? Thoughts, opinions, discuss! |

Japan's declining birth rate is going to have to look after itself, not much I can do for it. |

It's interesting, but there's not much anyone can do, so eh. I do believe that Norway and other countries in Europe are in the same situation, so it's not something unique to Japan. A cool thing to look up that relates to this topic would be the demographic transition model. |

My country's birth rates are even worse and peoples like me who don't give a f.. about having childrens are at fault. so if I dont trying to change situation and don't care about my own country's birth rate would I ever give a fak about Japans? I think its for the better, Japan is way overpopulated. They are doing right thing. |

I'm assuming Japan will simply be improving their assistive technologies to help the elderly. Also, the Japanese in their 60-80s are probably much healthier than other places of the world anyway, so in that sense, it's not as much of a burden as people like to believe. I find it hilarious about the random as hell stats on otaku/NEETs in Japan though. I'm too lazy to search it myself, but it can't be more than 10%. |

i rather other countries decline in birth rate instead. japanese people have some to offer me which is anime and manga. but a good portion of them are probably more interested in their 2D waifus thus why they don't want to procreate with mere mortals. |
