Oh my god... don't even get me started on people who want to be Japanese... or actually. Never mind that. I had a classmate who wanted to be Asian in general (Japanese mostly, but other Asian was acceptable). She thought Asians were so pretty and perfect and was literally jealous and fawning over me and my friend who was Laos. She's not like that anymore, it was just a phase, but it was a horrendous experience. I was like "You want to live a life of high expectations and sexism?  Because girls are practically worthless in my family.  You don't want to live like that, you really don't.  Being Asian isn't all anime and manga ya know"

And yeah... if you're Japanese maybe.... but using anime and manga as part of heritage research rather than a book or actually experiencing it? >n>

And true that.
