I heard of Street Fighter gamers going to Japan as a path to improve their game. It would be cool to go to Japan to learn how to make ramen or forging a katana.
What skills would learn if you can make it to Japan?
>>30521 I don't understand the appeal of food porn anime at all. I guess if little succubus slice of life is for lonely pedos and beat em up shonens are for beta weaklings then food porn anime is for fatasses who don't know how to cook?
>>30501 Short for Catch as catch can wrestling. It is old fashioned western submission wrestling and what pro-wrestling is loosely based on. Oddly enough it almost died out completely in the west but was kept fully alive by japan, who then spread it back west. Lot of great wrestlers from japan that are still alive and teaching to learn from.
>>30533 Guess it's about satisfying primal urges. Scat will probably be the next big thing in anime, I've already seen a lot of clips of anime succubi relieving themselves into their diapers in the most attractive ways.
>>30755 >>30650 You can watch for both reasons. I find them relaxing and as a escape, but I would be lying if I said I didn't also enjoy the pleasant visuals, not totally innocently.
>>30486 why go all the way to japan? you just need to go to somewhere with a healthy competitive scene. look at t7. only recently has it been discovered that in the middle of bumfuck pakistan is an elite t7 scene, producing fighters who are able to consistently beat koreans.
>>32411 Some people think japan is gonna crack down on loli and other ecchi stuff cause the 2020 olympics are gonna bring the world’s attention to japan and they’ll want to look good.
walk into any porn shop in japan and you'll see there are two main areas. first area is behind the curtain, this is where actual porn and nudity and stuff goes.
but in front of the curtain? in the room you literally have to walk through? that's where they keep fucking idol videos and shit with little kids. right out in the fucking open because it's "not porn". a flood of westerners going to japan are going to lose their fucking minds seeing everyday crap like that everywhere.
>>32415 Japan is a sovereign nation, they don’t “have to” do anything just because westerners might see something unseemly in a porn shop. The question is just will they care enough about their image to do something, and will that something last any longer than the end of the Olympics.
>>32417 i don't care or have a stance, i just said my prediction. i think quite a bit will be different to the point i'm actually gonna feel sorry for any wiz that decides to travel to japan any time this year or soon after
>>32414 anime, video games and VNs (including the perverted otaku stuff) is too valuable to Japan as a cultural export, they're not getting rid of it because of the olympics that's just the usual doomsday prophesiers who have been ranting that anime is ruined since the 90s
>>32424 anime is ok I guess, japanese videogames have been getting into trouble since the PS360 generation and they every year it gets worse, most companies would rather shit out some mobage than make a proper videogame.
The eroge/VN industry is going through a crisis, companies close each year and I'm not even sure if new ones are made to replace them, part of it is because of the fucking insane prices, paying $90 or so for a fucking powerpoint with sex isn't worth it when you have shitty mobage gacha for "free".
They came out with a good idea, DMM basically made a netflix of eroge where you can pay like $30 a month for a lot of 2D tits and pussy,there's even some english translations in there.
There was some talk about traveling through japan and sleeping outside etc couple years backwards. Found this video today and it made me think about that thread, didn't see it by quickly glancing through the catalog so I'm posting it here, enjoy.
>>35711 It's sad that this video will go on to inspire millions of redditors to pretend they're poor in a foreign country, which will then make this type of travel heavily restricted.
