Well I like the cover, it looks like my anime characters I watch. Although it would be nice to see a male version also. I think it's just fine, so on there next. Issue let's vote for a male version....

Posted in: Is Japan really racist? See in context
Awesome article I live in Japan and I'm American. I notice this racial issue all the time and it's pretty sad. I do understand a lot of Japanese are trying to preserve there heritage and culture, but some take it too far as a human being. Times are definitely a changing. I love Japan and the culture and wish I could speak more Japanese. I do teach a couple of older Japanese women English, but I really don't consider myself a teacher. There are only 2 ladies and we get together as friends and socialize over coffee or we go to historical sites. They are the sweetest japanese ladies I ever met. I have noticed more and more foreigners here in Japan over the years and most are married to a Japanese citizen, so I definitely run into a lot of friendly japanese people. I think it depends on the area your in and what kind of people are there. I hear the word"gaijin"a lot and it is definitely not used in a good way. I have seen many shops and protesters not wanting us here and we don't serve you, or get out of our country. It's so sad and I just try to remember that not all Japanese people are this way. THANK YOU FOR THIS ARTICLE, I DEFINITELY THINK PEOPLE SHOULD KNOW HOW IT IS HERE.
