Living in Japan - Why??

[Ff7rockerman]

is kinda stupid hearing everyone that is obsessed with anime having to move to japan like its perfect over there they obviously are clueless and need to learn that animes are fake thats not how it is over there anyway i would only go visit there i dont see a real point in people wanting to move away from there familys to a whole different country i could see it if you had family over there

I make 4x here compared with Hawaii.
So I guess it's the money

ya that may be true but for anyone who's not Japanese and who's been to japan alot of the people don't care for foreigners in there country so people thinking that if they would go there and get accepted its not that easy especially for the older generation of japanese people if they wanted to get away it would be alot better to move to a different state considering if you actully was planing on living there people would have to know how hard it is to even get a job and how expensive rent per month is over there and its alot.

also alot of the places in japan wont even let you into there store or resturaunt if your not Japanese since your a foreigner.

its how it is down there im not saying everyone is like that in japan but mostly that's how it is i know quite abit of people that live in japan that aren't Japanese and that's how it is you can even go on youtube tons of people talk about it

also would like to add its way different from america see over here you can get in trouble for being racist but in japan they have that right to do so theres no laws against it

And 9 times out of 10... No, make that 99 times out of 100 - it`s for all the wrong, selfish, childish reasons. Of course, if you`re so immature that you`re unable to interpret parents actually caring about you correctly, you`re very unlikely to actually be able to make it around people you don`t really know.

Seriously, I can`t tell you how many thousands of PMs I`ve gotten since joining here from kids who are whining "OMG, I am just like you, I have so many family problems and need to get out of here!!" - and then when I ask exactly what the problem is, it turns out that "My mom won`t let me stay out all night!" Or "My dad wants me to study instead of watching anime!" or the all inclusive "My parents just don`t understand me, and want to manage my life!" ....

I can do nothing but roll my eyes. Only once did I get a message from a girl who was really in a bad family situation (REAL abuse and neglect, not "OMG I am abused because they won`t let me go to a party!" or "I am neglected because they won`t buy me my own pc for my room!")

After having taken in a few people, I really think that it`s not so much that they believe anime is real - virtually no one is that stupid - but instead that Japan is a place where they can pursue their hobbies without interruption. In other words, watch anime, play video games, read manga, etc all day without having to actually worry about real life. It seems that most of the time the biggest reason they want to get away from their families is because they want to do just that, not because they really have a family problem.
Unfortunately, they don`t realize how spoilt they are most of the time until they leave home and realize that maybe having mom nag every once in a while is a small price to pay for not having to actually deal with living alone... And that leaving home doesn`t mean you have less to deal with - but instead that you have 20 times more, and being in Japan instead of your home country doubles that.

i know its a joke

edit : also nyororin if your from japan you would know how Japanese people act around foreigners they don't accept you very easy.. especially compared to the us if people can think they can just escape to japan and life will be easy from there on they basically made there life harder considering you would need to know the language and also being alone getting a job by your self there would be pretty much impossible were are you going to live on the streets lol?

anyway kenpachi as i was saying in japan you cant really get in trouble for being racist its alot different from america maby if somone was being racist to a japanese person that might be but im not quite sure on that

oh ya i forgot to add this earlier if people don't like there family how does it make it a solution to move to a different country rather then move in with other family members such as ones that you are related to doesn't have to be the family you are with now

...Shows how very little you know about Japan - clearly you've never been to Japan, much less lived there. I've never, ever seen or heard of a restaurant/store that tried to keep foreigners out - don't believe everything you read on the internet. The only places that may try to keep foreigners out are the 'less-than-legitimate' establishments that you might come across if you venture out from the east exit of Shinjuku station...
