I love insane nail designs (have been practicing them for quite a while) and in Tokyo, Japan, there's a huge nail fashion runway show. Every year they choose a "nail artist" to be the top nail artist of the entire city. I really, really want to go and witness one of those week-long convention tours and in order to do that, Japanese has to be a language I'd have to be pretty fluent in. I'd rather not drag around a translator the whole time. Even with a translator, it's not all the same.

I'm watching a lot of Tokusatsu and I'm starting to pick up on the language naturally. I'd like to retain this momentum and carry through on learning Japanese.

One day I'd really love to study abroud out there, so in the meantime I'm going to learn as much about Japan as possible. This includes being able to speak Japanese. I'd be in bad shape if I went out there and didn't even know how to talk sweatdrop . That's all.

4laugh I used to live in Japan, but then moved to Germany. I started learning German and lost my japanese. sweatdrop Shame on me, I know. I know all the people I knew there are probably dead and gone, but I'd like to go back and visit for awhile and see my old schools.
The other reason is to understand anime w/o having to put the english subtitles on. Doing all that reading makes you miss what's happening in the movie.
Last reason, I love Japanese Cuisine heart and the place I go I'd love to talk with the owners in their own language. I've been trying, but it's beyond choppy...they just smile at me, but they are patient. 4laugh

What originally sparked my interest in Japan was anime, but I was young then. I've since mostly grown out of anime and manga (As I haven't watched anime in years I do enjoy manga sometimes still)
After learning more about the country I started liking the culture, the festivals, defiantly some of the food (not fishy ones though) alot of the clothes too. Less things like fruits and more like the traditional clothing. Although I do like classic lolita and a few others.
I plan on visiting the country (to possibly try and model there as I
m short, lmao) and to enjoy some festivals. I really want to go there in the summer, spring to see the cherry blossom trees and in winter.

Though anime was the first gateway into the world of Japanese culture, now my reasons go beyond just wanting to want an anime episode without subtitles. I love everything about Japan - its rich history, the culture, the fashion, the sound of the language.
Another reason was I wanted to be a little different than everyone else around me who wanted to learn Spanish. Spanish is a wonderful language as well, but it just wasn't for me. I had dabbled in Spanish, German, and French before, but none of them caught my interest. When I first learned "Konnichiwa," [though I now know it's spelled Konnichiha whee ] however, it touched my very soul.
Now I have several textbooks, audio cds, computer programs, and online sites that I use to help my Japanese proficiency - such as Genki, Michel Thomas, Rosetta Stone, and LiveMocha.com.
I hope to some day visit Japan (perhaps even stay there for a time) and be able to hold and understand many conversations. biggrin
