I feel like I could move to Japan and become the most popular guy at school. Reason? I played Persona 4. That game taught me a lot about the Japanese culture. Things like:

High School only consists of three years.

It is normal to buy dangerous sharp weapons from your local armory.

Japan has it's own Wal-Mart.

You HAVE to call anybody you are acquainted with "Senpai"

Post what you've learned about the wonderful land of the rising sun.

i learned nothing

Your only call your seniors senpai

Japanese highschools are as sleezy as American highschools

only one dude per japanese highschool can have a 'fro

White hair isn't weird in Japan apparently..i knew this albino dude and he use to get picked on all the time over here

Sensei isn't into older women or BBW

I learned that:
-bento or "boxed lunches" are a pretty big deal
-there are a lot of honorifics
-school starts in April
-apparently udon soup is nasty

-Your house is most likely to get robbed at 8AM
-Those zany Japanese put proper meals in their lunchboxes
-Wearing skull clothing, dying your hair, and swearing once in a while makes you a terrifying rebel
-Having school on Saturday is a-ok!
-Swords, attack fans, shields, clawed gloves, and guns all count as "art" and may be legally purchased at your local small art shop. Assuming you provide the materials.
-Japan is very concerned about traditional gender roles.
-There is nothing strange about you and your friends sitting around a food court with your school uniforms on...when there's no school that day...and there's a fox sitting with your group.
-High schoolers can get jobs as anything but fast food and retail peons. Because translating in the evenings is totally a typical minimum-wage job, and flipping burgers would shame your ancestors.
-Japan has no machines that fold enevelopes; that's what high schoolers are for.

Being gay in Japan is apparently still a pretty big "oh, fuck" sort of deal.

Edit: Maybe just in high school.

As crazy as Persona 4 get, it somehow a pretty accurate depiction of rural Japaneses culture.

-You can buy Weapons and Armor Next to the Grocery Store
-Foxes understand English
-Envelope Folding Raises Diligence
- Popularity leads to intimacy

- CHILDREN'S DAY!
- You can go inside your TV in Japan.
- Japanese gods does exist.
- I can get laid in Japan, with many beautiful girls!

- sewing is for ladies
- it takes several weeks to come up with a new riddle
- drama girls are filled with drama
- I've been foolishly throwing away my mustache fibers all these years

1. Japanese High Schools, or at least this one, has school Monday through Sunday, unlike where I live.
2. Japan has tons of, and in my opinion pointless, holidays.
3. Japanese middle-aged nurses hit on young teenage janitors.
4. It is socially acceptable to tell someone that you are in fact "death".

Everyone is homophobic as hell.

Being around hot guys causes nosebleeds.

• Asian people can grow afro's
• A big beef bowl is $30! ! !
• Pop Stars are easy to get along with
• He-She's are sexy
• Itsok2bgay
  

I learned that there really sexually repressed and sexist mostly lol the amount of times the girls "accidently" hit the guys in the face then realise they werent doing anything? I hate that.

popularity leads to intimacy!!!

You go to school on saturday.
There are, in fact, demons inside the TV
KINGS GAEM!

They have school on Saturday. Aside from that, reading the back of the manual, page 34 and 35 specifically, was actually very interesting. It talks about how some of the Personas are based on Mythology, and why. And it also talks about various things that occur in the game and tells the cultural references behind them. Oh, and it's got a fairly detailed list of all the major Honorifics in Japan.

platypus t-shirts give japanese people the lulz

- Transparent umbrellas are the shiz.
- Japanese hot springs contain an unlimited supply of woven baskets for use as ammo.
- Big department chains wait at least a year before updating their electronics sections.
