what has Japan given to the world?

I apologize for a "spur of the moment" type of reply that may have not really put across my intent.

I am glad that with your post here we were able to bring this thread "back' to where is should be. Thank you.

There's no need to appologize, forums are sometimes a sort of spur of the moment communication, and you're still entitled to your opinion regardless of my own.

The WWII content? I totally skipped over that, I was more disapointed by Japan being characterized by anime and video games, it seemed a very shallow way to describe such a vibrant country.

It's natural for people to focus on the big things that happen throughout history, such as a World War, but we should save that sort of topic for a different thread than this one.
