How I discovered Japan

Av Fanny - 9 november 2018 09:41

It all started when I was a little girl, around 5 years old. My dad bought me a dvd movie, I know the brick tapes very well tho. The movie was called Spirited away, I was mostly blown away by the details in the movie and the relation between Haku and Chihiro (zen). I even had fantasies about them and how Chihiro wouldn't leave Haku and the world. That movie became one of my favorite movies, it bringed so much feelings and inspiration. Shortly after more Miazaki movies came out in my language, my father encourage me rent the movies at our city's bigger library. I didn't only rent them once or twice.I saw Howl's moving castle, gedo senki and maybe kikkis express and Laputa. If it wouldn't for my father I would maybe not be knowing about Japan. After school 2 new tv programs came out at the children's channel, Sakura Cardcaptor and Kaleido star. I enjoyed them both. I did never see Sailor moon as a child like everybody else seems to have. 


   


After a big break from the tv programs and Miyazaki. I was Spirited away once more when I was 16 years old and wondered where the movie came from... I searched it up at google and found it was a Japanese movie and the same with the tv programs I saw when I was younger. The pussle came together. I thought Japan was apart of China until I got 16. For me Japan looked like a dream or like a movie, it couldn't well be that beautiful. I got more interested into movies and tv programs that look similar to what I have seen. I saw Wolf Children and Death Note..After all those animes and time I started to get bored anime and I got more picky. I wanted pure mature Romance (not the harlem romance with 10 girls) or fantasy, preferably both. My favorites until today is Nana, Tokyo Ghouls (1 & 2 season), Diabolik lovers. Today I barely watch any animes so far it isn't something that suits my needs.Instead I like watch Asian dramas and comedies, not only Japanese dramas and comedies.


 


But back to the subject. At the same time I started watch animes I searched more on the google about this odd country. How do the people look like? What kind of food do they eat? How do the streets look like? What do they wear?... With a little bit of google searching and reading. I decided I wanted to talk to a Japanese person. I signed up at "meeting people" site, there was a bunch of people. At this site I found my Japanese ex and he came into my life. I think I was 16 or 17 when I firstly started to talk so him, I was very young. There was a few j-vloggers to like Rachel and Jun, Taylor R and Abroad in Japan, they kinda learned me a few things to. When I got 18 I traveled there for 2 weeks, I experinced so many things during my all stays and I feel very at home there I must say.
