--- Quote from: AceHigh on May 06, 2011, 05:50:49 AM --- (click to show/hide)Some people would also mention the infamous Japanese xenophobia as a darker side, however my opinion is that it is their right to be xenophobic in their sovereign country. However if you plan to move to Japan, that might become your problem.
Hiding their past atrocities from the younger generation. I don't believe it is right to hide or manipulate the history, like taking out their past atrocities and war crimes out of the history school books. China is especially bitter about it btw.
There are other things that I will leave to people to discover for themselves.

(click to show/hide)yea i meant to mention the first point but its true, every country is like that to some extent. and for the second, i would think any country with a dark past would go through something similar. germany, colombia, south africa. and i know what you mean with china as well. japan did some nasty things to them and china is definitely bitter because of it.
overall though, i think you've helped to bring me back to earth a little. thats kinda what i need when i start thinking like this. ive been having some rational ideas lately, and i think it really just helps to talk about it.

But here is my contribution for the youngester:
You post on a topic like this.

lol thanks old timer. you have a point in a way. its the way of thinking a la "i think therefore i am". if you have to think about it, chances are the answer's obvious.

Just publicly showing that you love anime/manga does not make you an otaku, unless you go to extremes other people have shown here.

and im happy i dont live and breathe anime, because then i would be able to realize myself the answer to my original question.

Yeah... That's not otaku. I like to classify that as complete social ineptitude (and also retarded).
I see your idiots, and raise you a moron...
