Realism, I don't understand your post at all, we are talking about people who want to go to Japan for the wrong reason, what does a local Japanese otaku has anything to do with this? He doesn't need to go to Japan????? And someone already cover this somewhat, the example of a Japanese who want to go to the state after watching die hard, it's just the same.....
And that was my point right above.

If a girl/boy finds Manga or Anime or both sooooo incredible interesting and exciting (it goes for everything, like Martial Arts, Food.. and so on, that he/she goes to Japan for it and after he/she took a step on the Japanese Islands, then decides that this is what she/he wants in her/his life, then he/she needs only the courage and the willpower to make this his/her new home and life. Even if it was right from the beginning only about Manga/Anime or Martial Arts.

This might not be acceptable for you at all, but for him/her it was.
