In love with Japan for almost 14 years I love Japanese architecture, language, history, scenery but I am not a fan of kawaiiness and squealed girls. Also I don't like jmusic I really like read mangas and I do it everyday. I am also so into Seiyuu but when it comes to watching anime it's 2, 3 anime a year so I don't call myself an Otaku. And someh......   reply
