I'm a Japanese. And I'm a senior high school student in Japan.
I haven't been abroad.

I want to know you Brits' image of Japan.
Please tell me what do you think of Japan, japanese people, japanese language, japanese culture and the Japan Self Defence Forces.

*My English is very poor because I'm not very good at English.
If I made some mistakes(probably I made mistakes very much), please let me know.

I think that the Japanese people are great, crazy bunch. We share common interests in football and cars. Your country is well nice full with culture!!

I dont really know anything about your self defence forces but they are probably not bad.

I plan to visit 1 day (dream trip)

My nephew's wife is Japanese and if she is an example of your country it can't be bad.

I just got a Hitomi Yaida album yesterday, and I haven't stopped listening to it. I love Japanese culture, language and people - especially Japanese girls! :)

As far as I know, it's in the Japanese constitution that you will never go to war with another country, which is the reason for the creation of the Japanese Self Defence Forces. If this is correct, it can only be applauded.

Don't worry about your English, it's better than some British people's.

I love Japan and everything about it, the films especially and the culture, the music, the wierdness of japanese telly. The technology, the manga, the anime, Its all amazing.

I love

Takeshi Kitano
Takeshi Miike
Nobuyoshi Araki
Masami Akita

to name a few.....

I have always thought of Japan as being very over crowded, homes are very small and very expensive with children often inheriting their parent mortgage.
I also think you are very advanced in your technology, a lot of Brits love your cars
If you want to know more please feel free to email me.

I have a very positive view of modern Japan and it's history before the 1930's and after World War 2. I have always admired many aspects of Japanese culture. My Japanese friends are cultured and highly intelligent people who work very hard in their businesses.
Don't know a lot about the Japanese Self Defence Force but media reports suggest they are disciplined and efficient.
Your grasp of written English seems to be excellent if I may say so.

Having taught many Japanese, English, in England, I can honestly say I found the majority very charming, although a little too quiet in the classroom ( i used to beg them to speak - how different from many rude and arrogant English students!) I respect Japanese culture but I do have one major concern. PLEASE DON'T EAT WHALES AND DOLPHINS!!!!

i have never been to japan but have heard its a very nice place to visit and live safe as well

and your english is very good

japenese people seem ok to me

Japan: exotic
Japanese people: inscrutable
Japanese language: indecipherable
Japanese culture: incomprehensible
Japan Self Defence Forces: first I've heard of them

I think your Engligh is very good! better than many English people's in my opinion.

My image of Japan is a very high-tech nation where honour still exists, and people have respect for each other.

The Japanese language! very difficult.

JSDF, fine no problem. I don't see why your military should be restricted to self defence in the current political climate.
