Eh, Japan is not such a good place

Doesn't matter, I think. We are already mature enough to think that there is a difference between fiction and reality. Any thing like cities, countries, places, etc. always have their bright and dark side, don't you think?   reply

Ehh.....well manga is fiction so I don't know why you'd use manga as reference of real life in japan.....Even in Japan, anime is not that mainstream although its more prevalent than in any other countries. Its not anime paradise as a country but there is akihabara.   reply

I'm not really sure what the point of this post is, I just... I mean... what? I started reading manga probably in 200.....9?

It's as if you're saying life in America should be like in "Friends" or whatever other series... I spent two weeks holiday in Japan last november and I enjoyed it! I enjoyed the cleanness of the streets, the s......   2 reply

School life is always boring, Japan or not and while dating isn't particularly welcome due to school pressures, I'm sure it isn't outright banned.
