RE: This Is Japan
A lot of things are odd. Some in a bad way, some in a good way. But when I compare Japan and US on the topic of "works orderly and reliably" without any knowledge, then my money is always on the Japanese. Of course that orderly also puts a lot of pressure on your behaviour, which again is sometimes good, sometimes bad.
Having lived here for so long now, I don't really look at things as good, bad, or odd, just different from what I was once accustomed to. The way over here produces results that are very beneficial to a lot of people in society, but you're right, they can and do take their toll on people.
