>work mentality straight out the depths of hell
>society stuck up in a retarded honor-shame system and moral cowardice that outright cripples their ability to deal with any problems and makes them slaves of their "face"
>legal system that is worthy not even of a third world country status
>the most two-faced of all Asian nations, portraying themselves as open hearted and friendly yet behind their facade is nothing but a nationalist ideal fueled superiority complex that is completely shutting them off from any outside influence and initiatives to combat their most severe and obvious problems (because how could someone who is not Japanese truly understand the deep and complex Japanese mind, a mind so sophisticated and unlike any other)
>unsustainable with birthrates among the lowest worldwide
>and suicide rates among the highest
>yet a childcare system so crippled that the kids they do have and are in need are left behind, growing up to become the bottom of society
>high level corruption that apparently doesn't exist
BUT AT LEAST THEY HAVE ANIME :D
