And as for you not thinking so, of course, anime isn't actually mainstream so us having Japan etc. as a favourite country is natural. And Americans would disagree with this too but any European would see what i mean.

Ummm, most people I know think of Americans as douchebags or arrogant... And America as a badly run country which we need as an ally to remain strong. Maybe badly run is wrong to say, but at least not well run.
Basically as a large military power, and an economical disaster. At least how my impression is.

Badly run is TOTALLY how you should see it. It's basically the "voters" of each state elect senators and representatives that propose that they will do certain things in office "for the people!" Once they are in office, they only listen to their major campaign contributors (aka, big corporations, lobbyists, and their own political party's agenda. Our government is corrupt as fuck (at least the legislative branch is).

I just didn't want to come off too strong on it, and I'm sure there are different views in America too. :) Just like there are people here who love America(Few of the "intelligent" people, though).

Yep, cause $250 for a hand held console is highway robbery... especially since there are no good games for it yet and eventually there will be a "lite" version of it that will improve it's current biggest pitfall (battery life). Once Pokemon comes out for it, I'll TOTALLY buy one though. I'm just wondering what color they will go with on this one...
Hehehe... I'm gonna be such a fag when I say "Yeah! I'm playing Pokemon Rainbow! What? What did you say?! Eat my dick... er... ass... er... FUCK OFF!"
