That's part of the problem right there. 80% of the traffic on this 'Japan Forum' is in the anime subforums. I like some anime, just as much as the next guy, but anime is a
terrible representation of Japanese culture. My point being.. if you were to quiz all the posters on this forum (
Japan Forum) on topics regarding Japanese history, language, geography, and politics, the results would not be pretty. I do realize that people come here to learn more about Japan, and I encourage those that are trying to learn more about the country and its people; however, the main focus around here seems to be anime.
