Look at what they have going for them: -Their people live longer than anywhere else in the world. They're the healthiest people in the world. -They have the greatest animation scene in the world and are among the few countries that respect the medium as much as live-action films. -Their technology, from cars to electronics, rank among the greatest in the world. The Toyota Corolla is the most popular car in the world. -They have an extremely rich, expansive, and complex history going back thousands of years. It's cultural is unlike that of anywhere else on the planet. I know everyone goes through a Japan-loving phase. What about you? Are they still your favourite country? --- The most powerful force in the universe is love ... Copied to Clipboard!

Lion_of_Gemini posted... Look at what they have going for them:Korea is #1 actually, but Japan is in the top 3. Technology is good in the major cities, but not everywhere else. Meaning, a lot of reliance on paper based stuff and not every place takes credit cards I worked in Japan for 2 weeks almost years ago. It's a beautiful country. Also Very clean, organized and respectful/polite. But it's not perfect by any means. There's a lot more conformance in the work place and it's very top down. At the same time it's very homogenous and if you are not native born Japanese, you won't be treated the same as one who is. Not even native born Koreans have all the rights as Japanese. --- Less is more. Everything you want, isn't everything you need. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Arcanine2009 posted... Korea is #1 actually, but Japan is in the top 3. https://www.worldometers.info/demographics/life-expectancy/ Japan is usually number one, but if we include Hong Kong it becomes 2 on the latest data. I live in the middle of nowhere and use a credit card for almost everything. There are some things that you need to use a stamp for or cash only, but that's the minority by far. It's very true you won't be treated the same as Native born Japanese even if you are 100% ethnically Japanese but weren't born in Japan. But I find the actual in practice discrimination here to not be nearly as bad as when I lived in America. There is a YouTube channel that interviews black people who live in Japan and most of the ones from America cite less discrimination as a reason for living in Japan. It's honestly complicated and depends on a lot of factors. Discrimination is just one of those things you can't escape. --- Favorite Games: BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Street Fighter III: Third Strike, Bayonetta, Bloodborne thats a username you habe - chuckyhacksss ...
