A country disliked by surrounding countries, especially Korea. ( Though there are many Koreans who admire and embrace the Japanese culture) Its bad relationship developed from unpleasant past and government problems between the two. It is economically wealthy and traditional or stereotypical Japanese people are known to be quiet and polite on the outside and have quite different feelings on the inside.
I personally believe Koreans should not hate the Japanese people because many just have the wrong idea about Korea and its history. Although, I do hate the government and its actions in the past and present.
Also some people have claimed Korea is like Japan and have copied them, but in truth, Japan has actually stolen many customs of China and Korea.
I apologize for my form of writing. I tried not being too biased but I could not help it.

A country on the east coast of asia That many north american anime lovers dream of visiting and assimilating to. A country in which these Japanese wannabes think the country lives and breathes nothing but anime and video games but in reality they are just like any other country in the world and just happens to be the birth place of anime and certain electronics etc.
(Japan Lover From north america) Oh wow I love anime! I will go to Japan one day cuz everyone there loves anime like me. And everywhere I go there will be young horny schoolgirls, arcades, DDR, anime stores, and rare japanese video games. I am gonna learn to speak japanese too and move there cuz I wish I was japanese.

Japan, island country lying off the east coast of Asia. It consists of a great string of islands in a northeast-southwest arc that stretches for approximately 1,500 miles (2,400 km) through the western North Pacific Ocean. Nearly the entire land area is taken up by the country’s four main islands; from north to south these are Hokkaido (Hokkaidō), Honshu (Honshū), Shikoku, and Kyushu (Kyūshū). Honshu is the largest of the four, followed in size by Hokkaido, Kyushu, and Shikoku. In addition, there are numerous smaller islands, the major groups of which are the Ryukyu (Nansei) Islands (including the island of Okinawa) to the south and west of Kyushu and the Izu, Bonin (Ogasawara), and Volcano (Kazan) islands to the south and east of central Honshu. The national capital, Tokyo (Tōkyō), in east-central Honshu, is one of the world’s most populous cities.
I have been to Japan!
A country that has never quite got round yet to apologise for war crimes in Asia and it's mistreatment of allied POW'S during world war 2.
War Crimes in China, Korea, Phillipines, Burma, Thailand, Singapore, Vietnam, Hong Kong, New Guinea......
of rape, murder, pillage, executions without trial and torture of civilians.
Japan are guilty of crimes against allied POWS involving......
Beheading, water torture, burying up to the head in the sand, firing squad, castration, burning men alive, hanging, cruxifiction, starvation, working men to their deaths and in at least one known case, boiling a man to death.

A country that is often unfortunatly and ignorantly associated with just anime and manga. There is more depth to this country other than its products. It has had its share of beautiful and dark periods of history, and it is the subject of criticism by many people for the atrocities it committed during WWII and its occupation of other Asian countries prior to WWII. Although a proserous and upright country as of now (to most standards), many look down upon it believing that Japan's post-WWII generation has ignorantly benefitted from the atrocities of their parents and at the expense of the suffering of other Asian nations. While not without some truth, it is true that foreigners would forgo the opportunity to check out the other beautiful cultures in Asia like that of Korea or Vietnam only to see more anime and eat sushi and pretend to speak Japanese, giving Japan unwarranted attention and wealth. (No real complaining on the money making, but who the hell wants to be known ONLY for producing sushi and anime by the majority of the world population? I'm sure Japan never intended that either.)
It sad to see that a culture and people as equally beautiful as any other is packaged and marketted to the masses in consumable chunks as if, for no good reason, anime and manga were the final word on the Japanese culture. If any country is jealous of that, I'd be amazed (look at previous comments enclosed in parenthesis) As a Korean American, I'd never want Disney or comic books shaping what others think of Americans, or God forbid allow Korean Drama to impress upon others of what an average Korean's day is like.
Japan is not an enemy of any nation as of now, but realistically speaking, nothing can compensate for the damage it had done when it was an enemy to some peoples. I mean, who'd want to undertake the process of righting the millions of death that occurred at the hands of the Japanese? No amount of monetary compensation can do it, no amount of "official" apologies can do it, and, certainly, no one in their right mind would go out and kill several million Japanese people for the purpose of reparation; that would only piss off more people (including myself) other than the Japanese, quite possibly the whole world, and the plan will surely backfire. This is a word of caution to those that are quick to demand that Japan fully compensate for the damage; not humanly possible. This also goes out to those that believe Japan should be forgiven and continue on as if its crimes are all part of a past better-forgotten; It definitely happened and it should and always will be a shameful reminder to Japan of its bloody period in history; its children should feel the weight of their parent's sins. So here is basically what I am saying: Japan, you'll never part with your dark sins, so don't even try, you'll open old and new wounds otherwise (textbook incident); you fucked up BIIIG time, so learn from it and make the lesson stick. All others, quit playing the "Japan Fucked Us Over And Should Repay" card and pay attention on getting your own countries to Japan's level of popularity on the global market (no anime knockoffs, pleeeeeeease!!!) instead of complaining how Japan is benefitting off of China's or Korea's past suffering; true to an extent, as it may be, but its time to move on. Beat them on the economic war if you hate em so much; taking money is better than taking apologies or lives.

A wonderful place that is stereotyped by american retards who love anime, and Gwen Stefani who thinks that japanese girls are all obsessed with fashion. These jack-asses think that the japanese will automatically love them for this, when in reality, they think that these 'animorons' are all idiots who think that they're japanese.
Oh, I love japan! I'm going to go there and everyone will love me because I like anime and that's all they care about!!! Despite the fact that I'm whiter than Michael Jackson, everyone is going to think I'm asian, and I'm going to eat sushi all day and play cool video games that only japanese citizens can play, because I think I'm japanese!
