I think there is a relatively large Japanese-English bilingual(ish) contingent on HN, myself included.

- w1ntermute 14y ago幼年時代にアニメと日本のゲームに興味あった方がこんなサイトでは多いからかもしれませんね。
- tokenadult 14y agoYes, I agree it is likely that this site includes many participates who have been interested in Japanese anime or Japanese games since childhood, as I have children like that at home. 名探偵コナン (Detective Conan) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Case_Closed http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Case_Closed is a favorite anime series in our household. My older children first watched it on broadcast TV when we lived in Taiwan (dubbed in Mandarin). Now our younger children watch it as Web videos in the original Japanese.
- w1ntermute 14y ago現在は西洋でも日本のアニメは子供のなかでは主流になってきたと思いますね。おそらくネットとファンサブのおかげでしょう。うちの中学生のいとこはほとんどアニメを楽でダウンロードして見てるんだけど、僕は同じことしたいた千年紀の変わり目のごろに、一つのビデオをネットから手に入れるのにはもう何時間かかったんです。残念ながら、Xboxの発売のごろから日本のゲームの人気は落ちてしまいました。
