Japan is in actuality, a fairly boring normal country.

I wouldn't call Japan boring, there's plenty to see and do there, and Japanese food is very good too. But for some people who think Japan is just about anime/manga and bideo gaems, they may be in for a shock when they actually visit Japan or talk to a real Japanese person.

Back in school, I used to have some Japanese immigrants as friends, they were pretty chill people, usually never talked about anime or manga, they knew the more popular ones. But they did really enjoyed fighting games and talking about sports.

Yeah from what I understand manga is kinda like comic books here. Most people are familiar with them, it's not really even weird for people, especially younger people, to be kind of into them and read a decent amount, but the turbo fans are considered weirdos.

Plenty to see and do, including some number of museums connected to the history of the country's left!
