Before you yell at me, I added the the 2nd option for the lulz. xP;

First of all, I gotta ask anyone who answers "yes"... WHY? "cuz i luv japan" is not an answer. I suggest you go research the country before even thinking of packing your bags. -_-; I'm serious.

And what is your motivation for doing so? If anyone mentions "cuz i likey animu and mangu" I will go berserk.

Wapanglish in this topic is off limits. I will be forced to use this chainsaw in my hand on you. ;D

Basically, I want to hear you explain your answer. Savvy?

EDIT :: I didn't see any familiar topic... maybe I just didn't lurk necessarily. >_> The one I saw was locked. Which means no NSFW images. o_o kthx

Visit, yes.

To live there, no.

If anything I would spend more time in Okinawa.

Nope, I'll just visit that place once in a while. Japan isn't that great. Only thing good about it is the MELON BREAD OMFG MELON BREAD!!!!

definitely! i love japan~~!!

i'd sooner move to china cuz i can actually speak the language fluently enough to get by.

And I thought asking WHY in the first post would help.

probably been spammed in the face by the "awesomeness" of japan through manga and anime when in reality it probably isn't all that it's cracked up to be. For "gaijin" like us manga=propaganda

I wouldn't move there, but i'd love to stay there for a year. =) It's one of my future traveling plans.

It's not. Like hell anime and manga would diss their own country. And of course, Japanese people are the readers. They don't need have their own country's flaws pushed at their face. xenophobia ftl

And here people are STILL ignoring my "WHY" question.

The poll so far makes me freaking cry.

Yeah, I would. I have to spend a year studying there as part of my university degree, so I'll get a taste of life there then - maybe I'll change my mind, hopefully not. (I'm going to be studying Japanese - might seem pretty obvious xD)

I can't really explain why I wanted to study the language - I started learning before I liked manga and anime. I was drawn to the culture - mix of history and modern. It just seems cool (which is a bad justification, but I can't explain it really.)

I'd like to visit Japan but I don't know about living there. If I were to move to any foreign country I'd like to know the native language. Living in a foreign country alone and not being able to speak,read,and write in the native language is just too much.

Alright, WHY WOULDNT I live in japan? for one I dont know the language, secondly I'll feel extremely claustrophobic (even tho i like the city),
