my opinion - 12-29-2007, 12:07 AM

thanx for all the replys
i dont know if everyone is going to agree with my opinion about the video, but i think the part were he said that asians get mad because its like we are taking a part of there culture is not right. there are people in every country that like parts of other culture. but just because they like it dont always mean that they are trying to take it. in a lot of other countries you will see people that like other cultures for example in america there are people that like anime and like to go to conventions and so on, and in japan there is peolpe that like african american culture and like to wear baggy clothes and listen to rap. but we dont get mad about it. me personaly think it is ok to use methods from other cultures to express youself as long as you dont go as far as kunitokotachi said.

3. Showing up to your first day of Japanese class dressed up as "Sasori" from Naruto and refusing to sit in your desk when sensei asks because you want to sit Japanese style on the floor.
4. Asking me to teach you how to say, "I'm going to kill you bastard and send you to hell!" in Japanese so you can use it on some random Japanese person and watch their facial expression just because you saw it in your favorite manga.
