Learning to slurp raman took some practice though but please don't ask how I picked up the habit of bowing on the phone 0.0

However, I would think that my general attitude renders me about as Japanese as Queen Victoria

3 - 8 - 7.

I don't know what a seiza is, and don't think I could ride with an umbrella in one hand. Being a native Seattleite, I never use an umbrella! Also, I think the no eating or drinking while walking thing is stupid, and some of the younger people do too (I've seen quite a few people do it in Shibuya).

So thats 16/30 lol, thing is I haven't tried many varieties of Japanese food or experienced alot of the things listed. If I tried this test again in 2-3 years I bet I'd get a higher score.

My bed used to be a futon, I watch Japanese shows all the time, I can't ride a bike, I sit in seiza all the time, I love J-pop, I've seen a few kabuki, I read manga like crazy, I like sumo, and my room is filled with random cutesy things.

I am 16/30. I haven't tried a lot of Japanese things.
