Ether_Snake said:HAHAHAHAHA.
I laugh at the primitive people who came up with this idea.
Typical. Japan is doomed economically, it has no future. The signs have been evident in a couple of sectors, and now it is spreading. Superstition and pride are shackles Japan never got rid of. It will bring them down in the next twenty years. There is no turning around.
Quite frankly, I'm glad that the prideful old cooks will still be alive by then to witness the fruits of their own labor and then die in shame and self-hatred, the same self-hatred that leads them to take such decisions.
Mik2121 said:I doubt I'll stay too long in this country though, mostly because design over here is going quite to the wrong places, and barely getting any better in the last few years, added to the fact that they don't sell that much anymore and current gen games are damn expensive, so they can't spend all that money and hence making most of the games looking not-so-good.
I'm pretty ignorant of Japan's culture but it seems like the whole country is in a state of helplessness and always lets the ones at the top choose the direction without giving any fight what so ever.Zyzyxxz said:Japan is a disgrace of a country and its too bad the populace is too ignorant to care what its nationalist government does. Can't wait until they die out.

maharg said:It's a racist policy because it targets a particular ethnic group. It's a government policy of Japan. Japan is being racist. I think it's a little absurd to say as much as you have in this thread about these people being unintegrated jerks skirting the law and then turn around and tell other people not to call japan racist for doing it. Don't profile if you don't want to be profiled.

Replicant said:Care to elaborate? I've been curious about design work in Japan but due to Japan's well...attitude towards foreign workers and the reality that it's hard to get a job there, I'm not keen to make the move.
LiveFromKyoto said:Don't misunderstand me. Yes, there's a definite racial component here, the OP is just rather slanted and half this thread seems to think it's about banning English teachers. Where were all you guys for this thread where I was one of like two guys sharing his actual racist experiences in Japan while everybody else was spouting nonsense like "lies, there's no racism in Japan, it's the happiest place on Earth" or:
?

My opinion on the fact has very little ground to stand on, that's why I just wanted a more insightful opinion on the matter. I don't know so are people pretty comfortable with the way things are there?Ether_Snake said:That's because you think overall people don't agree with them

Uhmpph.. it could take quite a long time to explain it all, and I can't be 100% accurate because I have only had experience from an internship and my current design college.Replicant said:Care to elaborate?

Troidal said:And I still dont understand why many continue to want to live in Japan.
kevm3 said:So what are the reasons for Japan's economy being in such a bad shape? I've been hearing they've been dealing with a bad economy for a long while now.
Replicant said:That's because it's a futile effort trying to explain to those "Japan is SOOO Great" anime/manga/Japanophile that Japan is not all that. At least not until they go there and spend a great couple of months there on their own (as opposed to 1 week guided tour or 1 month language school). They have this idea that Japan is a heaven (it kind of is, to a certain extent. It's a beautiful country that needs to be explored) even though it's far from it.
Japan has many issues and their attitude towards foreigners (you do get slightly better treatment if you're of caucasian descent though) is a big turn-off. I remember laughing so hard when I visited my friend who's working there for the first time. He basically unloaded all of his emotional baggage about the country to me, saying how nice it is to see someone he can talk to openly. The thing is, he never believed me when I told him about Japan's unpleasant side before he went there.
I didn't talk about ALL artists, but MOST artists don't really know color theory, and I'm not the only one saying this (most of my teachers admit that, mostly because they are... well.. teachers, and they have had tons of students that end up in those companies and they have no clue about color theory).sprsk said:Uhh Japanese TV, dramas and stuff aren't the quality of American dramas cause the things are literally made in a couple of months and they don't have nearly the budget.
As for their variety sets, well, yeah those are pretty hideous, but that's just Asia.
To say though that Japanese artists don't know color theory is a little lol though.

thetrin said:Japan has its definite disadvantages, but it's total horseshit that the nightmare you describe is somehow indicative of every foreigner's life. I wouldn't trade my last 3 years in Japan for anything in the world. It's been some of the best years of my life.
I've been meaning to see that anime, that plot line sounds deliciousLuCkymoON said:this was the plot of Vexille. I'm not kidding.:lol
ElectricBlue187 said:I don't really understand the reasoning behind restricting immigration. Your economy cannot grow in the long term if your population growth remains flat. Kicking out dem damn ferigners taken ur jerbs might feel good in the short run but in the long run you're shooting yourself in the foot
Replicant said:Japan is a fantastic country to live in, but so far my good experience came not so much from its people but more from the natural beauty, the convenience, and the awesome foods that the country has to offer. And oh, life do tend a bit nicer if you also have friends from other countries that you can talk to. Some Japanese people were nice to us but there's this invisible barrier that neither I nor my friends can seem to penetrate.

Zoramon089 said:Uhh, America's been doing this to illegal immigrants...they don't piss people off because they're Mexican, they piss people off because people feel like they shouldn't be getting certain rights/benefits despite not being legal citizens. This is COMPLETELY different. Not to mention, I don't really think there's a strong sense of nationalism in America, at least not to the point where people consider Americans xenophobic. We're too mixed for that to be possible
And Japan is kicking itself in the foot.
