What kind of weirdo space nerd studies the language of the country which up until recently had the second highest GDP? I mean, despite the fact they are completely unique amongst cultures, and thus provide a lot of insight into our own culture and a deeper understanding of humanity itself.

They were a key player in World War II, a rapidly-modernizing civilization which strongly resisted Western imperialism, perpetrated an ambush on the US so devastating it thrust the country into the war, and were subsequently the victims of the only nuclear attacks in history. They are now a highly successful vassal state with fascinating politics.

They contributed so vastly to technology that many popular product brand names are in their language. Nearly everyone on this board grew up with significant exposure to their video game consoles. We were all exposed, at some point, to their comics and animation, and maybe even their movies. They are active Internet users with a thriving and bizarre Internet community.

Their food is enormously popular, dignified (even artistic), and healthy. Their cultural standard for politeness and service is unparalleled. Petty theft rarely occurs to the extent people leave their bikes unlocked, and an earnest apology is enough to satisfy most policemen.

But it's not like they're French or something.

I also know many people who study Japanese, so I have to agree somehow with stegosaurus' opinion.
To be on topic: I personally like easter. I love to eat all the sweets, easter eggs and food hampers, which my family prepares Eastern is for me all about food and meals! I can't wait for next year! I just love it.
