A period of time in the mid to late '90s in which a large amount of children developed unhealthy obsessions with Japanese games (primarily the ones that became popular television shows) and culture. The advent of Pokémon is said to be the beginning of this period.
(Inspired by the British Invasion in the 1960s... Now THAT was awesome!)
Other Japanese Invasion Fads Included
- Pokémon
- Digimon
- Sailor Moon
- Yu-gi-oh
"Hey man, remember the Japanese Invasion?" "Fuck yeah, I was all over that Pokémon shit." "Dude, good times. Good times."
(As long as you make it sound cool while reminiscing, talking about Japanese Invasion era fads is perfectly acceptable in any social situation now and in the future at any time.)
