Don't believe the hype. If anything you are better adjusted than any kid your age in all of Japan. That and the majority of them go to cram school of some kind. So just because they are better than you at math is no reason to feel ashamed. They'd make you feel inferior regardless of how smart you really are. Feigned politeness is not the kind I want, thank you.
hm.. srry im confused... about the better adjusted part and the "They'd make you feel inferior regardless of how smart you really are" part
please expand (the last part makes me paranoid)
but i agree Feigned politeness isn't the kind i wan't either ... that would make me feel stupid...
I don't know if you've noticed but Japan seems to have cornered the market on retarded inventions, sick perversions, shut-ins, and suicides. That's not saying it ain't entertaining as hell, because it is. But there's no way that stuff can come from a healthy society. Second, it's their country, you're just visiting. Everyone does it in their home country that isn't third world. I would. Also, for your third question, word around the block is they are overly nice to tourists. Not sure how it is for people staying for more than a week or two, and its just what I've read mind you. So hell if I know if its as bad as it sounds.
