Right now the number of japanese I currently know outweighs the non-japanese I currently know.

Lets see, I've attended half a dozen Japanese schools, in Aus spent a fair bit of time hosting and directing exchange students around over the course of my 5 years in highschool and go to a university that is about 15% foreign students. I'd say alot....

10 - 50 Nihonjin is a lot for California

Yep, I know about 10-50 nihonjin right here in California. Which I think is pretty good seeing that its california. And theres are real Japanese, such as born and raised in Japan and going to school here. anyways, I am a student of Japanese myself, others might find my website helpful if your learning the language. I am currently writing a book too. Visit it at www.trancefuel.com

Click on Japanese when you arrive at the homepage, you are welcome to surf through the rest of the site. Its mostly about my life and interest, which is why the Japanese section of the website is a good 1/3 of the site. You can go directly to the japanese area of the site by going to japanese.trancefuel.com or http://www.trancefuel.com/japanese/idx_japanese.php

Plus, I love movies, so if you wish to watch Japanese TV shows Free on the internet 24/7 visit my movies area of the site, where you can watch live TV from many different countries. You can view TV shows here, http://www.trancefuel.com/videostuff/idx_winTV.php

I guess I personally know about 7 or 8. There is my girlfriend (from Osaka) who lives with me, my two male friends here in LA, my friend in Tokyo, and all the teachers at my school OSULA. There are a LOT less Japanese people in LA than eight to ten years ago, but between Torrance, little Tokyo, and Sawtelle we still manage.

Btw, if anyone wants to know of a great Japanese school in LA, go to www.osula.com ... the teachers are all from Japan and they move you pretty fast

Is that correct?

ArmandV · 1 Nov 2004

Too many to count.

Since I conduct regular business with Toho Co., Ltd. (Tokyo and their Los Angeles offices), I have met quite a number of Japanese people through them and while going there this year and in 2001.

SajberJohan · 1 Nov 2004

So where's a good palce to meet japanese people on the net then? Do they go to foreign forums or are they all at japaneseforum.jp? :?

Pox · 1 Nov 2004

Yes, I was wondering too. Just knowing 500 people, especially from a country that is not yours, is quite impressive.

DragonChan · 2 Nov 2004

Seeing as how I am in Japan right now, everybody is Japanese so my count goes pretty high.

At home in Vancouver I see tons of people from various cultures all the time, and I am sure quite a few of them are Japanese. But I only really know 10 or so Japanese people well enough to count.

I don't even think I know more than 200 people altogether...

Mimmy_08 · 8 Nov 2004

okaeri_man · 8 Nov 2004

i'll vote 50-100 since it's true, but only 3 i could claim to be good friends.

Master X · 9 Nov 2004

I'm friends with 2 japanese people. One of them is half Korean and half japanese...

cyber ape · 25 Nov 2004

Well, there weren't many Asians in Texas and the only Asians here in Georgia are all Korean XD

Let's see. Daisuke is one of my best friends. He lived somewhere near Kyoto for quite some time, thenmoved here for 1 year, where he learned hardly any English XD, then moved to Tokyo. I know some sushi chefs at Miyabi(Yoshi, Oda, Keita). I've been penpals with a girl in Japan for some time now(Megumi) and her wonderful sister Asuka.

So, total, I know about 10-15. Oh well, once I actually move to Japan(should be after this school year) I'll know quite alot and try to report back here

Here in LA (the state, not Los Angeles), Japanese people are almost nonexistent. Our Asian population is mainly Vietnamese, Chinese, and Korean. I only know one Japanese person that I met through online. (He doesn't live here.)

How many japanese people do you know?

How many Japanese people do you (personally) know ?

I am Japanese (born and raised in Japan)

100 to 500
