Japanese Eccentrics. - 05-01-2011, 11:26 AM

Thinking about Eccentrics, Would we class many of Japanese ways of life or their beliefs, their festivals-- even their anime-- as being Eccentric?

Perhaps to other countries they may well be seen as eccentric because of the different way of doing things.

Considering that at one time Japan was closed to the outside world, many typical characteristics must have developed and become ingrained into the Society of Japan.

Would you say that Japan is in fact an eccentric country?

Is that what makes them different from other countries?

Is it what fascinates many Westerners?
