I grew up believing Japan was some kind of nerd paradise where everyone played vidya.

Find out only causal handheld and mobile crap is popular and gaming is far more socially acceptable as an adult in America.

Why is reality so hard lads?

Where the hell did you ever get that it was some kind of nerd paradise? Japan is more casual than the West and literally no one gives a shit about anime and videogames. THey love DQ for some reason though.
>>
>>386504116
Mobile games are so popular because most of the Japanese work like 500 hours a week and have almost no downtime to play video games except while taking the rail or goofing off on the job. NEETs are a thing but that's a very small minority of people.

Not trolling, why is this important? Hobbies are something you do for fun regardless of what people think, from archery to stalking.
Do whatever makes you happy

fucking nips

As bad as Japan is it's still the best of the East Asian nations. All of the bad things about Japan are kicked up to eleven elsewhere.

Nips hate otaku, haven't you studied anything about their culture? Over there if you're not working or studying you're wasting your time.

Don't top anime shows get insane ratings, like 7 or 10 weekly? Peak Walking Dead was like 8.5 and it set a record

I actually just came back from Japan a couple weeks ago and this is true. But there's so much to do there that I didn't even think about videogames once the whole three weeks I was there.

Moe anime is basically an injection of serotonin for lonely salarymen, why do you think it airs in the middle of the night?
>>
>>386507109
Honestly, it's not like it's a particularly tough competition, as practically all countries there suck in a way or two. Basically, you have those greedy and scummy shitholes with no morale, and then you have those autistic workaholic nations with suicide-inducing traditions. Still, if I had to choose between those, I'd take the latter: it may be shit, but at least it is mostly honest shit.

>>386504116
Gaming's more accepted as a hobby in America nowadays then it was ten years ago. Isn't that a good thing?

No need to feel embarrassed about it either way.

>>386504116
did they laugh at your anime pillow as well?

Moe doesn't draw shit. Long-running shows like Sazae-san and Doraemon and Toei shounens are king

Their works are so creative. How can such a zombie society create such wonderful pieces of fiction?
>>
>>386507615
Rmember that those scummy shitholes like China aren't really that better on the workaholic scale, you have parents powertraining kids since theyre toddlers so that they can get in a good university etc.

I don't believe this bullshit. Most likely it's somewhere in between the fantasies and the trufax posts. If they hate animu so much why do they produce SO FUCKING MUCH OF IT? literally dozens of new series every year, what's the deal?

The small part of the population that consumes it is dedicated as fuck and spends a ton of time and money in it. You don't need to reach to a big part of population if your niche attracts enough whales.

at least playing switch or 3ds in public is far more socially acceptable in Japan, I guess

and also you can see a salaryman plays arcade fighting games anytime in Japan
