| Topic | Friend wants to move to Japan but it's not for the usual reasons you might think |

I mean the whole city is basically themed after Anpanman (which is of course for kids, but definitely still anime and a reason people go to Kochi and the museum in neighboring Kami) from benches to buses to street cars to trains to bakery goods (man that fucking song is burned into my brain). Sakamoto Ryouma is definitely the biggest local tourist draw, but even he has been given the anime treatment in gift shops and the weird cosplayers they pay to greet people (no one in the history of Japan dressed like that). I mean did you ever go to the Aeon mall or the arcade? Each has a game center, manga stores, etc. You can't go anywhere really without running into manga/anime/game culture. It's everywhere. Not Akihabara levels (which is basically an endless anime convention), but it's so much more pervasive than in America. --- Favorite Games: BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Street Fighter III: Third Strike, Bayonetta, Bloodborne thats a username you habe - chuckyhacksss ...
