- haunter 6mo agoAgreed. Classic case of the “Thing vs Thing, Japan” meme https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/thing-japan https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/thing-japan
- TuneCode 6mo agoHahaha! I'm from Japan, but I totally agree. Honestly, I often find other cultures even more charming in many ways.
- nkrisc 6mo agoThe unfamiliar usually is, especially when you aren’t there to experience the less obvious negative aspects of a given culture. Outside of Japan, Japanese culture often gets put on a pedestal but it of course isn’t without its own issues that aren’t apparent to outsiders viewing from a distance.

- epolanski 6mo agoZabkas are no match to the experience of Lawson, 7-11, etc. Zabkas, e.g., have no toilet. There's a much wider and fresher and better conserved food in japanese convenience stores. Zabkas are always understaffed and it shows.
- avadodin 6mo agoThey are just Japanese cherry blossom in Poland anyways. Many trees of the same family are also stunning in bloom but the Japanese cherry blossom is celebrated not only for its beauty, but also for the fleeting nature of it. I'm not sure how that translates as the tree is moved to a different climate where it doesn't belong.
- epolanski 6mo agoSendai/Tahika have extremely similar weather to large parts of central Europe.
