I think just the vast amount of manga i've read over the years has perked my interest in the japanese culture.

Also most of the new technology comes from Japan, and I like my technology 🤣

I'm Asian, it's my nature. 😮
Jks. xD

...I watch dramas...I read manga...I watch anime...how can I not be interested in Japan? 🤣

That explains it. xD

But I guess the reason I got into it was because I've been constantly exposed to it. Sailor Moon kept on airing over and over, along with those other old classic shows. It's hard not to get into it. And when you're addicted to anime, you eventually get curious about manga. Some move onto dramas. Or at least this applied to me.

Erm, because it's japanese?

Japanese descendant here, it just does the job 🤣

Nothing really influenced me. I first tried reading Naruto because I was bored, and then I fell in love with manga in general.

If you're wondering how I first heard of Naruto, though, my twin was reading it.

Does the walker choose the path, or the path the walker?

I got into martial arts which inevitably lead me to the japanese culture.

The pen is mightier than the sword...and considerably easier to write with.

A childhood friend of mine. He started showing me anime shows and films and lent me some manga.
Thats really it to be honest.

I think I got hooked on anime when I first read ranma when a friend introduced it to me. then I watched more anime years after i wanted to learn Japanese and its culture.

Mostly Jrock music and Manga/Anime

Also Harajuku fashion, Visual Kei, Ganguro, Cyber... and other japanesse urban subcultures...

oh, and i LOVE Cosplay :3

I don't remember..but it was when I was in elementary school..I think.

I wouldn't say I'm particularly into Japanese culture, I said previously that I'm only really interesting in Manga and Anime as a medium of entertainment itself. Sure I know snippets of what Japanese culture is like through it, but it really hasn't sparked my interest to actually study the culture without physically going to Japan.

Most interest would have probably sparked from that fact that I'm Thai, Thailand (where I'm from) is apparently in the top 5 when it comes to Japanophile population (source isn't very reliable but it does make sense). It is very strange how I find that most Thai people are more interested in other Asian cultures than their own. They prefer Korean/Taiwanese pop-stars, they love Chinese and Japanese soaps. Its all overwhelmingly annoying, when Thai pop-stars try to imitate Korean one. (Sorry I have this thing against the whole androgynous movement in Thailand where they think men that look like women are considered as the ultimate sex appeal.)

I find somethings that happen in Japan to be laughable or just make me feel worst about the human race. But no place has its merits without its bad side. I'd say I'm interested in going to Japan just like any-other country and just experiencing the history and the culture the country has to offer. (As in not going there to pick up local chicks or lay on the beach for a week and probably hike mount Fuji for a day with a friend). Not to buy doujins or limited edition stuff that most otakus tend to dream about when they go to Japan.

Do not feed the trolls
