The grass is always greener on the other side..

Shut up you stupid fucking weeb.

canada really are terrible posters

cunts cant even make a simple politics related thread

First world problems I guess.

Honestly though Japan is crazy expensive and most people don't make that much. Also a lot of work hours aren't recorded and aren't paid. Unions belong to the company and the leaders are basically chosen by them.

That being said, in Japan you give up freedom for security in the west its basically the opposite.

>If i was born in Tokyo i would be happier.

No.

>Why are they so miserable though?

Because we don't have time for anything.

We don't even have that much freedom and the government enforce laws that secure us from ourselves. ~-~

Why the fuck would you want to live in a shoebox in one of the busiest cities in the world

>Honestly though Japan is crazy expensive and most people don't make that much.

NHK should learn this, and stop coming to my home all the time. Don't even own a TV.

Like you'd have a chance with nip chicks. If you cant land a moose some sideways vag isn't going to be any easier.

I guess Tokyo isn't that exciting when you live right near it for years. Well I live about an hour away from NYC also and NYC isn't that exciting for me either.

Soulless modernism or something.

Also, there's like 125 million of the cunts on that small little island.

>Not working in 外資 and enjoying the best of both worlds

> why are they miserable
Sweeping generalization. Nips do tend to be worked to death, though.

Neighbor's got a new car that you wanna drive

Karoshi myth has ended when bubble burst.
The only true "black" companies right now are the small venture businesses, IT, Game, and Anime field.

Anywhere else is not so different from US.

True or false, japanese qts want foreigners?

True for one-night stand with degenerate whores.
They come for the white dick to Yokosuka/Roppongi bars, all you need to do is go there and try not to be a full sperg

False for normal girls.

everyone knows taiwan is the happiest

This omg. As much as I love Japan I would hate to live there. Lovely as a holiday destination though. I miss feeling safe.

I think it's because they're stuck in the 1990s, as if on a permanent loop. They didn't make much progress since then.

I live in NYC and just a week in a different state makes me miss it. Being able to walk about the entire island in five hours or less is fucking amazing for a busy city. No street is ever "too far" when doctor's appointments, work, or meet ups matter because I can pretty much be there in a max time of an hour and a half. And those are on slow train ride days.

There's always something to do, there's always something open, I can always "get what I need" regardless of time. I need to get a new mouse at four in the morning so I went out and a bought a mouse. It's impossible to get lost, just go back to 34th or 42nd and you'll always be fine. I can go my entire life without ever once getting a driver's license.

How far the internet has come in the past decade have made petty shit like just ordering pizza a fucking breeze, do people even know of mypizza.com? It's basically a yelp just for major city pizzas and it blew my mind when I first discovered it because I'm such a lazy asshole. I have the option of either being extremely friendly with my neighbors or ignoring them altogether and never once experiencing any "dirty looks" because of life style choices I make. I went to a convention in some little town in Jersey and old women sneered at me when I was walking down to the center in a costume. I decided to wear a costume randomly to work one random spring day and the only people who looked at me were people who thought it was fun I was dressed up as a cartoon character.

These are just little perks that when built up, make shit just like... Not exciting, I guess, but definitely relaxing. You definitely miss all these little tiny conveniences when you leave.

If I wanted to be social, NYC would probably be even better, but I chose to stay indoors 90% of the time and still enjoy it.

I just want a feminine wife to make babies with

is that really so much to ask?

I live down the street from OPs picture. Literally a 7 -10 min walk. Canadian transplant. Tokyo is way better than any Canadian city and just to let you know, most people here are not miserable.

>wanting to live in a country full of suicidal fucks
Quit reading moon runes and get a life

>Living in Shinjuku, Shibuya or Roppongi

Why every second gaijin does that?
These places are not for living you stupid fucks.

What do you do? Is Tokyo more or less expensive than Toronto without a car?

Posting photos from my 1983 trip to Japan. I was in Kyoto for 4 days, then flew to Seol, and was scheduled for China. I had to head home due to sickness.

Beautiful country, nicest people I have ever encountered

I haven't been back since

...

...

...

which was better, Korea or Japan?

Who says they're miserable?
Living in any city is kind of soul destroying honestly, so it could be that but you'd get the same anywhere else it's hardly specific to Tokyo.

>Living in any city is kind of soul destroying
>t. hillbilly

they both have nice cocks

Because working like a literally drone isn't fun. Being white in asia is fun though, you get the perks of the qts without being a workbot drone who gets cucked.

I grew up and still live in London, a thriving metropolis, I also lived in the country for 4 years and it was the best time of my life.

We were the only American company at this expo. There were also Germans and Russians.
Japan, though Kyoto and Seoul are two different types of cities, not very conparable

Having lived in both, I would say Japan is a better place to visit, Korea is a better place to live. Everything is so cheap in seoul and you can get full, wasted, and fuck girls easily and cheaply. But Seoul is an ugly city with basically no culture.

He has a point regarding Tokyo but if you live in bumfuck nowhere like I do then you're basically a celebrity and can get a qt gf pretty easily

>and fuck girls easily and cheaply
you mean prositutes or you mean korean girls are slutty whores

I've been living here for over a decade, I have a family and children and I fully believe Japan is near utopian level compared to what I remember about living in the US. What I hear on Cred Forums and Cred Forums in general about the current state of the west only serves to reinforce this belief. I guess I'm a weeb, but I'll take that label if it means enjoying life in a safe, secular, and racially homogeneous society while the rest of the world drowns in shit. The grass is most definitely greener on this side of the fence.

Korean girls love to pretend how pure and innocent they are but *whoops* after some soju suddenly they're in your bed and they totally """never had a one night stand before"""

Almost all Korean girls lie about their sex lives. Unless their hymen is intact, don't trust them. And even if it is remember there are hymen repair clinics in korea.

Enjoy your hour commute shitlord.

>and racially homogeneous society
>he's the fat smelly loud gaijin

sounds great

is it because porn is forbidden so males get out more and try to fuck?

I wish I lived in Japan...

youtube.com/watch?v=z0jY98dcHTM

I'd rather be the lone nigger than have to deal with other niggers.

>if i was born in Tokyo
I'd be Japanese.
That'd be a problem

Perhaps, also for cultural reasons girls like to have boyfriends, even if they don't like him, so they'll go with a guy and sleep with him until a guy they actually like comes along, or until they get close to 30 and are desperate to marry anyone

I own a small trading company.
Tokyo expensive for some things, but it is much better than Toronto. No Googles, nor other assorted deplorables as well, train cities that you can walk in are just better period.

Japan for sure.

This

So, why not go back to Japan?

I'm scanning a few for better quality

>Everything outside the major shopping/business/nightlife hub is a one hour away
>What is a normal living area like Setagaya or Chuo-line 10 minutes away

too bad you'll never be Japanese

Update of

You are stuck in armchair social science observations made by journalists who have no idea what the fuck they are talking about.

First Japs are happier than Germans. When I came back from Osaka after 1 1/2 years I was shocked at how miserable people are here and their mask like depressed facial expressions.

>What I hear on Cred Forums and Cred Forums in general about the current state of the west only serves to reinforce this belief.

yes Cred Forums has such a healthy view of the world around them you should totally believe them

I wish I lived in Tokyo. I need to get the hell out of the inaka

Fellow japanons, what kind of work do you lads do?

amazing buildings, meticulous attention to detail.

like nothing you will find in the US

Living in Tokyo/Japan is only fun if you are white
It's terrible as a gook

>Fellow japanons, what kind of work do you lads do?

外資 now, was a 商社マン before, would not recommend.

Osaka seems like a good place to live. Any plans to live there again?

It's pretty fucking hard to immigrate. I was a foreign exchange students before, but I'd like to, yeah.

I would kill myself if I had to deal with that every day.

cityscape

This doesn't really bother me though. More often than not being white is an advantage. Speaking Japanese fluently as a white guy immediately convinces most strangers that you're intelligent.

I know right, maybe living among crowds of riotous blacks armed with guns isn't as bad as it sounds, maybe it's just the alt right making shit up and I should go back to the US and escape the dreadful micro aggressions of occasionally being offered an English menu when I go out to eat.

EXPERT PROGRAMMER here

Do you have an recommendations where to apply as a Software Engineer?

>First Japs are happier than Germans.

They ain't, Germany is happier.
And Japanese living standardsstagnating for decades is a fact.

ya looking pretty sweet

Tokyo maybe, Japan definetely not. They bond with other asians more easy, political squabbles or not.
As a caucasian you have a novelty bonus in bigger more cosmopolitan cities like tokyo, but other folks feel alienated by you often, if they don't loathe you.

...

I've heard from various sources that IT field in Japan is a completely black shitfest. Even in big companies.

What is your working hours/yearly income?

I dunno really I've gotten two decent jobs just applying through regular Japanese sites. Just spam apply to like 20 or 30 positions and you should get a few interviews.

What is that survey about, how was it conducted? Surveys about happiness are often bs, it's hard to quantify. Japs have more suicides but are less depressed, they seemed a lot more thriving and happy to me.

>And Japanese living standardsstagnating for decades is a fact.
And that's exactly what I mean by repeating German journal half knowledge. The Japanese economy is growing this very moment under Shinzo Abe. That's a fact. Before that it reached an unsustainable level and a bubble and it burst remaining at a less speculation and stock market based, sustainable level.

Black user here, is it true that the Japs hate us?

Or do the women lust after us moreso than they do in western countries?

No. Much less, I am not slandering you. The blacks were literally the only ones not getting girlfriends and jobs here.

>Why are they so miserable though

Who said this?

Everyone hates googles, no exceptions.

It's the World Happiness Index, you can look up the methodology online. I tend to trust it more than anecdotal evidence, since it actually corresponds with what I saw traveling.

We Germans don't cherish what we have. We have a lot in comparison to most parts of the world.

But I'm genuinely interested in your experience, what makes you think the Japanese are better off on average?

You'd have better luck in Central Africa.

Don't worry Sweden loves you

Been there. It's a fucking terrible place. They have this colorful weeaboo shit plastered everywhere to hide the fact how fucked up the living conditions are.

Cultural differences user, and race has a little bit to do too.
As a foreigner you have a different set of opportunities than a japanese man, they have this pression about achieving a perfect future since they are kids, every decision in school, university and workplace dictates who they are, besides women are taught to follow the most sucessful among men, that's why many are renouncing to this rat race, it's too much work, even for them.
In other words Japan is the perfect paradise, for foreigners, despite they practice this ''respecful racism'' a skilled foregneir is always wanted, if he can prove he can behave in their society of course, also there's something that foreigners face the first time they visit, the cities are top tier, nevertheless the countryside is way backwards, there's nothing much to do in the countryside besides the culture and landscspes, it feels like they are still living in feudal times.

I pretty much go to work whenever I want and leave whenever I want. I tend to work more hours before a big deadline but less when free. Don't get overtime pay in general, but I'm okay with this since nobody bitches if I come in past noon and leave before 8. But when busy I'll be going in at 10 and leaving around 10 at night so it evens out I guess.

mouse utopia in effect

Of course, they are not subjected to all the diversity brainwashing like people in the west.
It doesn't help that the few blacks that are in Japan confirm all the bad stereotypes.

Kyoto, downtown, facing away from the entrance of a theater

I call this bullshit.

I work in big company.
I have no overwork in this month.
last month was only over 15 minute.

Japan having more free time than US.

Because Japan's work life and leisure balance is terribly askew and you are expected to not separate you work and social life. It seems like a tiring existence to be honest.

Tokyo is a great city though. I would love to live there but I'm basing that off only one month spent there and don't mind being an outsider.

tooo old pic.

how old are you??!

if you like being stared at constantly like you're a freak then come here to japan

I guess you are fluent in Japanese then?
With de facto almost zero japanese language skills I am limited to international companies like Rakuten.

Lesser rate of depressions is not anecdotical evidence.
washingtonpost.com/news/worldviews/wp/2013/11/07/a-stunning-map-of-depression-rates-around-the-world/

We have shit for being one of the most developped countries. Shitty pensions, shitty social security, high crime rates, self hating cuck culture, long working hours, fucked up infrastructure and dirt eveywhere.

Japs have high pressure but their towns are basically decompressuring amusement parks and their culture is built arround comfyness and security.

71

I'm happier in HK.

You don't even have a culture.

Do humanity a favor, and kill yourself.

KEK

Kyoto truly is a lovely place

i've been to hong kong and like Shanghai better

It's growing at the cost of financial collapse in the future. Their debt has risen astronomically the last few years.

The economic growth is actually pretty underwhelming for the huge government spending.

There is no way they can ever recover from this. Not without a huge happing such as robots and AI. Neither of which Japan is at the forefront of technology.

I hope they will be okay, but with their ridiculously large debt increase I really see no way.

How much do they're really hate foreigners? Like some white guy who isn't a tourist?

Yeah, it cost some effort but I feel it was a good investment.

You guys are parrotting popular observations from the 90s which are long outdated.

How much of the world have you seen? As I said, you don't know how good we have it here.

>Shitty pensions
Yes.
>Shitty social security
Fucking no. Find me another country that offers our levels of benefits (housing + health care + 400€) for the unemployed unconditionally.
>high crime rates
Ever been to the Americas?
>self hating cuck culture
Yes.
>long working hours
Fucking no, we have the shortest working hours amongst OECD nations, after the Netherlands. And we're certainly better than Japan in this regard.
>fucked up infrastructure and dirt everywhere
Are you from NRW or something? Because that's not how anyone would describe South Germany at all. We're known for our Ordnung and Autobahnen.

Denmark knows whats up

Japan is nothing like anime. Quit believing cartoons represent reality.

Tokyo is a very crowded city, very expensive but at least its fairly convenient (can go to a 7-11 and get literally anything you need)

as I said, this was 1983

This is one of the photos I took inside the theater, I had the flash on, and I regret that, but it made the pictures better.

- pay 20,000,000,000 yen for a tiny piece of beef and 3 litres of sake to help you relax

Most of this was okay expect good food and booze is cheap as fuck there. The food is probably the thing I loved the most in Japan.

If I didn't mind liberals I could move to Portland and have everything I need in walking distance.

>How much of the world have you seen? As I said, you don't know how good we have it here.

Enough to know that there are many shitholes, but measured by Germany's GDP and educational level it oculd be soo much better here.

>Fucking no. Find me another country that offers our levels of benefits (housing + health care + 400€) for the unemployed unconditionally.

Relatively to other European countries. It's fine if you are jobless , but shit for people who work. You can literally earn less by taking a job.

>Ever been to the Americas?
Ever been to Japan?
>Fucking no, we have the shortest working hours amongst OECD nations, after the Netherlands. And we're certainly better than Japan in this regard.
You know why? Because we have so many old and less privileged people working half-days that they distort the conduction of the statistics.

>Are you from NRW or something? Because that's not how anyone would describe South Germany at all. We're known for our Ordnung and Autobahnen.
Yes. Born bavaria, currently NRW. It's not only NRW though. Even in Bavaria we get problems with minorities and ghettoization

I lived in Tokyo for 2 years and lived in Hong Kong for 3 years. Asians are extremely unhappy and they're extremely cruel

Pic related (Hong Kong)

Was that a pet?

Osaka > Tokyo

So you are making all these statements only in relation to Japan, amiritre?

And you still acknowledge that Germany I'd better than most of the world and better than most of Europe? Because it is.

>live in Japan
>enjoy best of both worlds
Pick 1 (ONE)

This

No we're not.
2005-2007 Was the only recent time where there was a slight improvement. Then an earthquake came and the government went full retard with spending.

more from that show

In relations to countries with the same technological and working ethics levels in general, but yes.

And which countries would that be?

No you wouldn't. On a day-to-day basis, you have one station by your home and one by your work.With any public transportation, you do that 95% of the time, with one or two backup plans.

I guess most of the uncucked anglosphere, Japan, Hongkong, Singapore probably.

oi japs! I always wanted to ask why is incest porn so popular over there? is it a common fetish or do jav companies just don't bother to come up with anything else? I got 1073 javs of mom-son stuff from rutracker alone (they got the best milfs in that genre), so they must be like ten times more that I don't have, and there's even more javs in brother-sister genre from what I saw going through rutracker

>Tokyo
>NC
What a stupid comparison desu senpai.

>uncucked anglosphere

So just Australia?

Japan is fine, but I would never live in the other two. They're soulless, overcrowded non-placed held together by money.

And, again, those are damn high standards you're applying. Most of the world would dream to live like Germany, at least economically.

Australia, New Zealand, possibly Canada.

>And, again, those are damn high standards you're applying. Most of the world would dream to live like Germany, at least economically.

Most of the world invades our social security system to do just that.

Never really been to Japan though I visited for a short time once , while Japan itself seems has much fewer issues then a lot of other countries , the people there seem miserable as fuck.
Would I be correct in saying that it's a culture thing ? Compared to the west japans culture has barley evolved since medieval times, (considering they were still medieval during the American civil war)

>oi japs! I always wanted to ask why is incest porn so popular over there? is it a common fetish or do jav companies just don't bother to come up with anything else?
It is not exclusive for japs. Look for american porn stories paperbooks of 80-90s. They were full of incest. But now supply of such things is suppressed on the West by wave of new feminism-puritanism.

>weeb confusing anime with real world, once again
nobody wants to live in this hell, go watch some documentaries about Japan, not made by weeb gaijin scum, and you'll see.

>Would I be correct in saying that it's a culture thing ? Compared to the west japans culture has barley evolved since medieval times, (considering they were still medieval during the American civil war)


It's definetely not as progressive as yours and mine. ;))

>Canada
>uncucked

You are kidding, right?

I really enjoyed this place

why didn't you visit again?

At least policy wise it's still a good place to be. Trudeau had to prep the bull a couple of more decades to ruin that. He is taking baby steps.

wat is with the crazy filters

Our culture is different tan the west thanks to all of the censorship (and the loopholes) and how we have been closed to other countries for hundreds of years. Morals and beliefs are different because of differing religions and traditions. So, I guess that that kind of porn is slightly less looked-down upon than in other countries. That, and how some fetishes are more popular in specific countries than others. Japan just has Wincest/incest as being popular

Honor based society cucked into having no future

That's going to change soon though

I want to know more about postwar Japan.

Yes, the guy owned it as his pet. But it chewed some notes, which pissed him off and he sentenced it to death buy beheading

>MFW people think that the "Japanese" are native to the island.

>MFW people have never heard of the Ainu.

Stephen Hawking released demons in Tokyo, so now a war between humanity, Lucifer, and YHWH is taking place.

>Canada
>Uncucked

wut

I went to Japan for my company, not on my own will, I have never done travel for pleasure, I can't enjoy it unless it is for work.
I spent the next 30 years working 7 days a week on various life goals.

My Aerospace career for Moog, creating several restaurants from Pittsfield Massachusetts to Seattle to Tampa Florida, running Diveman Florida, operating a telemarketing company, and running an early internet spam mail company.

I don't mean to get too deep in to my history, but you must understand that I am a true workaholic, and it was all for good reason.

My Pension is now over $6000 monthly, and I have only retired 2 years ago.

All that to say, I will travel again now, and it will be in luxury, there is no more work to do.


remember to save money for your old age.

Tokyo is shit. I would love to live in Hanoi. Best city in Asia.

yeah man, I know and I'm not judging, it's just that the sheer amount of incest JAVs and hentai is insane. I always figured there must be crazy demand for it, considering that it isn't really being distributed outside Japan

20 years of absolutely no economic opportunity.
>Every other first world country is "social democracy" as fuck and therefore even more stagnant than here
No it isn't.

Taiwan is better than most Asian countries and in my opinion better than Japan. However, for westerners it's relatively boring. Tainan is best city but the east coast is one of the most beautiful places I visited.

Hostels and traveling is fucking expensive though.

>However, for westerners it's relatively boring.

That's for sure. Taipei was a real snooze.

They didn't take kindly to (((communists)))

Why is is better than Tokyo? And Ho chi Minh?

>work a billion hours
>never see your family
>never get laid
>never get rich
>the inescapable feeling of being another brick in the wall

You tell me, cartoonman

what brings you to Cred Forums? you asian or white?

got any insight why do JAV companies not bother with the market outside Japan? I legitimately wanted to buy some favorite JAVs and couldn't find an English-language store. seems like big and easy money to me with nearly zero effort

I was surprised how boring it was. I just spend a month in China before that and damn they have some crazy places.

Taiwanese are very friendly though and I made some friends there other than westerners.
There are also no backpackers because it's of the backpackers trail and that was a bit of a bummer.

DON'T BULLY HIM
YOU BIG
YOU BIG BULLY

Oh i think i saw you on the Couchsurfing website once

They're just not big drinkers there.
But cost of living in Taiwan is pretty bad compared to the wages. Food is cheap but rents are insane.

It's so much fun. It's feels like a small place instead of a big city all the while having everything a big city should have.
People there are really friendly as well and it's one of the only big cities in SEA were westerners and locals would sit together and drink and eat.

Bia hoi corner is a lot of fun, beer for about 15 cents a cup. The perfect place to meet other people as well.

Can I ask why you visit a place like this?? An ''old'' man with family and pretty much a successful life coming to post here with several depressed young people from around the world. That's intriguing.

this

Being drunk is not done in Taiwan and a sure way to lose face (although less in the more westernised clubs in Taipei). That's why they can afford to give away unlimited beer for 3 hours for 700ntd.

I lived 6 weeks in hsinchu with a girl and it was fun to not travel around and see it for a bit but the city was shit. 1,5 hour bus ride to Taipei which wasn't much better doesn't help either.

>remember to save money for your old age.

What's the point of working your ass of only to enjoy it when you are 60-70 years and old as fuck. I'd rather work and enjoy life at the same time.

Japan is hell and dangerous.
Don't come to here.

The Narita airport riots were cool though.

arcades, and games in general, thats the only thing I can think of, whatever else that is better with a lot of people, orgies?

Japan is nothing like your shitty childrens cartoons portray it. They've got some... severe cultural issues, but then again, so does the west.

Personally, I really, really hope Japan remains stoic with respect to its immigration policies. Japan will have a hard time in the coming years due to their aging population, however once that has passed, they'll be able to maintain a very high standard of living, by virtue of the fact that they're hardworking, and law abiding people in a racially homogeneous society.

I can't say I know too much of Japanese history, or that I intimately know their culture. That being said, from what I do know, I have nothing but respect for them. Like I said, they do have some cultural issues, like salarymen, their low birth rates, etc, however these can all be overcome. They have the potential to become a great, racially homogeneous society, and although I would never have a place there, there is something fulfilling about seeing a respectable society with great potential, reach that potential.

Good luck Japs. You might have problems in the short term such as the aging population, the threat of China, but if you guys can pull through the next ~50 years, I truly believe Japan will thrive.

Mate their country was fucked from the moment the bombs dropped, read about how the U.S. forced the Zaibatsus to break up into tiny groups of redundant companies, this was to reduce their output and stifle them from becoming the Korean chaebols we see today

>the people there seem miserable as fuck.

Japanese think that Americans are fucking miserable and dangerous.

White, Slavic and Mediterranean, I am second from left in I must be 39 in that photo.

as far as Cred Forums, and 8/pol/
It is interesting reading, I also read Scott Adams blog, and Vox Popoli.

they are just old photos from a very old camera, filters are meant to imitate the look these naturally have
Very nice place, when I was leaving my hotel, the staff (20 people) lined up outside to bid us goodbye. I gave the youngest girl there, who had found my lost wallet, a gift given to me by the company for 5 years of employment, an expensive gold pen, worth $300.

The city was vibrant and people communicated.

I grew up in Massachusetts in the 50's and 60's, 1983 Japan felt more like home and closer to what I want the world to be like, than 2016 America

People here don't seem so depressed. I see much excitement and hopes for the future, that is not what depression is like
Only do what you want to

>Korean girls love to pretend how pure and innocent they are but *whoops* after some soju suddenly they're in your bed and they totally """never had a one night stand before"""

From what I heard about Italian dating culture poster
should have no problem to adopt.

Serious question.

We know nip chicks love the white dong, but how do they feel about full and manly beards on Western men (considering Asian guys typically can't grow beards worth a shit)?

Is it seen as attractive and masculine? Or just weird because they're not used to it?

>I like designated shitting streets better

Thick eyebrows are seen in a positive light, but body hair/beard/stubble is not. As for musculature, tall ottermode is ideal, followed by Auschwitz mode, then the rest (chubby/bear, etc.)

I wonder if they really don't like beards or if they've just been conditioned to think they don't because none of their men have them. Maybe biology would take over in the presence of a full and manly beard.

Yeah, Korean girls also love to say that they are much more proper and traditional than those Japanse sluts, but everybody who has been to both countries know that Korean girls are much easier.

Japs were excellent learners, they loved learning from the Americans themselves

They were more attentive and engaging than the Chinese (I visited China many times between 1984-1989)

they also smoked more than the Chinese, had higher ceilings, spoke better English, and they seemed to be real human beings

Because we are not white/black.

We has our own beauty standard...why is this world must be like USA???

I really hate americans smug attitude.
This is why some store are no gaijin allowed.

>1983
shit nigga you old as fuck

but i thought that most canadians are already asian

All work and no sex.

Gotta ask because you're probably someone with high traveling experience, what is your favorite place you ever visited?

Really, Russia are basically second after Japan with incest porn

Japan, Italy

you voting trump?

Keep in mind, I haven't left the USA since '93

yes

I have no idea. I'd be like a kid in a candy store if I lived there.

>Seafood everywhere
>Cute women
>Games and anime
>Jobs (Especially if you speak English, more so Japanese too
>Can drink in public, smoke in restaurant s
>Pachinko parlors, arcades, karaoke
>Clean beautiful streets
>A literal neighborhood dedicated to hentai, maid cafes, and panty dispensers
>Dick festivals

I mean, what's not to like? I mean besides the overworking, which is what makes most of the above possible.

Ever been to both places recently? It's like reversed, except for the learning part. Japs are great at picking up things.

China might as well be a giant chimney. Most men smoke and a lot of girls too. The ones that can English are better than the Japs that into English.

t. Chinaman (re: leaf) although according to Japs I'm a Jap and according to Chinks I'm a Chink. I speak and write moon.

>t. Chinaman (re: leaf) although according to Japs I'm a Jap and according to Chinks I'm a Chink. I speak and write moon.


muh herirage faggot.
You are Canadian,not Chinese/Japanese.

It's a pity Japan will be like the UK with all the refugees coming in. Don't be surprised when they start trashing Akihabara and all those districts they deemed offensive. Yes there are Japanese Muslims living in the country already.

People will never truly accept you, you'll always be the gaijin

Which is not so bad sometimes since you can get away with a lot, you can leave work early and no one expects you to work overtime because most Japanese are actually proud to beat you on working hours even if they're way more inefficient

Fruit and meat are WAY too expensive too

W-what if you're Black?

Born to immigrants. No filthy anglo genes, unlike you 外人

fpbp.

Don't get me wrong I love tokyo. It wouldn't be as grand if i'd been born there though.

>Ever been to both places recently?
no, I plan to go back to Japan though, maybe China

I interacted with many communists, mostly engineers from the soviet bloc.

they were drained of life and emotion like the Chinese, and their work in the Aerospace field was very sloppy.

maybe because you finally realised that Tokyo isnt like the towns shown in your shit animes

This

they drank the water that came from the roof, I have no idea why

...

How skilled at programming do you have to be?

Any particular opinion about Germany?

cool. do you go to the trump generals? how do you feel about meme magic?

it was a nice country 1983, I only went once though

I have more opinions about German engineers and technicians.

They were the Smartest men on the planet

No I prefer slow threads.

Meme magic is obviously real, but you need to know that it is truly nothing new.

many memes have spread across the country before the internet

this

This.

NYC is and always has been shit.

forgot pic

You've said that 1983 Japan characterized a better vision for the future than 2016 America. In that vein, do you harbor any resentment for White early 20's American males who can't find their fortune in America; thus, they decide to find a career and family in Japan?

I did the 4-year chemistry degree but can't find a full-time permanent chemistry job. However, I have no debt or other obligations and am N3 (intermediate) Japanese. I'm really considering putting all my eggs in the Japan basket.

Name a pre-internet meme. Most of our autistic minds on this animal cartoon appreciation image board can't comprehend this.

Well done lads. This thread now derailed into "ask an old fag anything".

>I did the 4-year chemistry degree but can't find a full-time permanent chemistry job.

get in line. There are chem phds who can't find work.

>current year and chem STEM is now a meme degree

>Well done lads. This thread now derailed into "ask an old fag anything".
kek. whenever someone over 50 pops up here i cant help myself.

fuck you disrespectable nigger, this is why western civilisation is declining

respect your elders

>People here don't seem so depressed.
Well it depends of the board of course, but my point is, this is a website created for anime fans and various sub-cultures proper of many outcasts kids and teens at the time, many of us ligered here after all this time, still with anime videogames, cosplay, wathever nerd shit you can imagine, and because of that many here are not very successful in life.
I mean, how is it to share this website with us?? What's your opinion on the people here? Have you adopted ay behavior from this site??

No you wouldnt, runing away from ur problens wont work, you have to fight them
Be a man, most of dont know how bad it is to grow up in 3rd world countries where people have to worry if they will eat on a daily basis
Find things that make u happy, move ur ass away from the computer, be thankfull for small things, health, familiy, friends, make urself a better man, good luck

I want to build on this question. What about goatees that are properly trimmed and maintained? Is it exotic enough to be attractive, but not too exotic to be disgusting?

I'm not afraid to teach English, so long as I can avoid the current social subversion against those like me.

I dunno, I like to think that I'm pretty good because programming is one of my major hobbies that I spend most of my free time doing. But, I've never had any formal training or education, nor do I have a decorated github or whatever normie programmer SNS is trending these days. I know I'm better than a lot of the crappy pleb programmers at work, but that's only apparent after getting hired.

One thing you have to realize about programming in Japan is that you automatically outclass pretty much everyone else solely by being able to read stackoverflow. I can't count how many times I've caught otherwise brilliant programmers reinventing wheels because they can't find existing answers on stackoverflow because they don't know how to phrase the problem correctly in English. If you can copy paste off of stackoverflow you will immediately surpass all the Japanese only peasants, and the skilled programmers will realize you're an asset and start giving you the difficult problems instead of boilerplate. So the only real challenge is getting that first job I guess, for which I would reckon knowing Japanese is the most important factor. So basically you probably don't have to know shite about programming.

'Cause of overtime wagecuckery and otakus.

>If you can copy paste off of stackoverflow
That's some pajeet level thinking, user. I'm sure the nips have their own programming resources to reference, too.

you get used to it after a while. I spent a semester in Fukuoka, and the first 2-3 months were "Wow, a skyscraper next to the beach!" but then after seeing it everyday it just becomes part of the scenery and you forget it exists. It's the same way in tokyo. If you spend too much time there then it stops becoming special.

I think you are somewhat of a casanova to them then, if you (as I assume) do not lie about having a nice beard like that. Considering the average male chink does not grow facial hair at all. I think it has something to do with low testosterone levels, since their average weiner size is pretty small.

The second pic is NYC, famalam.

i can't speak for all asia, but in my country girl prefer them clean shaven, pic related should give some idea. basically fashion model/korean-ish type i guess

>so miserable
what? I'm glad to be Japanese though.

How can I live in Japan. I dont want to take anything over I just want to move out of western shitholes?

Most places that do that are shit though.

I don't believe race mixing is good. Going to Japan and taking a woman, ripping her from her people, I feel is wrong

You can do whatever you want though, I don't let these things bother me, I have no control over them

boobs (80085) on a calculator, I encountered that in college
that strange S symbol
Scooby doo was actually memed by pot smokers nationwide during the 70's

I like it more than other sites, I've watched an Anime before, FLCL

failures occupy every website

I'm sure they do, but it must be very limited since not many students graduate with CS/IT degrees.

Unfortunately there isn't anything close to the level of what's available in English. I'm strongly against copy paste programming and using code that you don't understand. But being able to pick up a random language or tool that you've never used before, google for something like for example "loop over data structure X in language" or "recursive regex replace with library", and immediately get a detailed answer, quickly makes it look like you know "every" language, when everyone else are stuck trawling through the private blogs of random Japanese autists. Honestly most of the time the deciding factor for what tool or library to use ends up being how much Japanese documentation is available.

...

I did this but in Korea. Public school too so I got cozy pay and hours with free rent. Pretty neat job for a year or two but I've never met someone who can do this as a career. It's more of a career pause to travel. I'd recommend it for that. Then learn something in demand. Maybe they'd fawn over you if you learn Jap and Mandarin.

Had a problem with my laptop 3 days ago and almost thought I lost all the pics from the last couple of years I made.
It's good that you kept these safe.

It does seem like China has completely outclassed America in the availability of chemistry positions for native English speakers. If I do end up pursuing chemistry, I will probably head to Central China. Until then, I'll try to teach English in Japan while surveying just how different modern East Asian women are compared to modern White American women.

Any tips on working in the public school sector as opposed to daycare?

I have boxes of physical photos, this thread had made me think to make a digital archive as well.


good to have both

Taiwan number one!

Day care will work you at odd, after school hours and weekends and those guys definitely want to squeeze your money's worth. Public sector is cozy and guaranteed pay and like any other public sector in the first world, inefficient. You definitely benefit from public because you have so much time set aside for travel and in the case of Korea, every year they take you to somewhere in Korea to experience the country even if you're doing that yourself already. I was lucky enough that they sent us to Jeju island for a few days.

I don't know much about teaching in Japan but I'm guessing same story with private vs public. A rule of thumb: with public you work public hours so whenever the public has a holiday, you do too. Whenever the public union says you leave work, you do too. There is no incentive to stay long hours because amount of time doesn't correlate with profit.

Far East women are not all the same. As someone mentioned in this thread Korean women want the appearance of "purity" before a few drinks. From what I've seen, the Korean women that did race mix were seen as undesirable from other Koreans, even if they were attractive. There was "something off" about them.

I've seen race mixers in Japan but I got the feeling that the locals thought they were weird or silently judging them. I saw a google and jap (woman) couple with a kid and the crowds avoided them with subtlety.

There wasn't a lot of race mixing in Hong Kong but from what the ones I saw, no one really cared. It was usually white man with china girl. There are googles but didn't see them race mix. The women there are definitely more independent and nonsubmissive than Korean or Japanese women.

And yes, China is the place where they appreciate western science degrees but the downside is, it's China. You will encounter a DESIGNATED floor at one point.

where in Tokyo should I stay to see streets like in the OP pic?

Scooby Doo?

This.

Thanks for the info. Did you need a formal teaching cert to get a job in a public school, or did you use something like an online job board (Dave's ESL Cafe, etc.)?

Everyone talks about Tokyo or some other big city. Are there any people here with long term experience living in rural Japan or a small town? I think that would be interesting, maybe slow and boring but I'd like it.

>possibly Canada
lmao

>Why are they so miserable?

ARR ROOK SAME

this

I have a CELTA, the highest form of teaching English cert you can have. Getting one takes a full, 9-5 month. For Korean public schools, CELTA gets you to the top of the application pile. I'm guessing it's the same elsewhere too. Certified teachers, like Bachelor's of Ed, gets you there too but that's overkill to teach English.

The opportunity came to me from my CELTA instructor who regularly gets recruiters looking for CELTA grads. People do get jobs from Dave's but you're also competing against everyone who read that job ad.

I was in tokyo 5 days this summer and I have to say it were the best days of my life.
I only ask myself why the suicide rate is 30% higher than here becuase of the social pressure,

I mean i would be very motivated to work in such a clean, technically advanced society which is still seeming to grow every day. You feel like you are part of a greater cause collectively. Europe seems dirty in comparison and totally degenerate and individualstic. I hate animes btw.

no matter whether you live in tokyo or ny or somewhere like that everything just turns out to be boring. to begin with what do you expect about that. night life? its shit, its all about eating and drinking and some boring normie piece of shit like karaoke. shopping? the internet is far superior in terms of prices and varieties unless you go for some well known restaurants or try to get some limited crap at particular stores. clubbing? a bunch of clubs and record shops have gone out of business. the party is literally already over.

as for the nerdy crap, akiba isnt even remotely close to anything special. the golden era was over around the early 00s and its getting old and merely a small shopping mall which has several dull otaku stores. on top of which you can basically most of the same stuff on the internet or elsewhere without lining up or getting thorough those smelly crowds. thats just the place made up by media and kimoota circlejerkers, the epitome as a literal "forced meme".

in sum, what you end up doing here is almost exactly the same as in your home. sadly and realistically, in todays world, you cant expect something fun to come in any big city all over the world. not to mention, objectively, those 3rd world crapholes like some chink big cities chinks exaggerate as it matters are out of question. you cant expect anything new out there either. all of them dont have a single one of modern cultural stuff. its just non-cultural boring cesspits.

Is a Korean Hagwon a bad place to work?

they're spoiled. i've met japanese people who say they're fed up with life in japan, then they move to another country like canukistan and they quickly realize how shit everything is compared to tokyo and run back home.
