One one hand, it's an opressive police state with ridiculous gun laws.
But on the other hand, there's manga.
Yes but thats not such a great thing.
I don't like manga, there's too many pictures and not enough words. I am the opposite of a visual learner, I need stuff to read.
And Japan had a stupid election last year, they were all morons and kept the same party they've had for 50 years. I was rooting for the Democratic Party of Japan, I can't believe they did so poorly but they are still a viable alternative to the LDP.
