What do you LOVE about Japan?

Hope I'm posting this in the right section.

All of us on this site who have lived in or visited Japan can point to things that annoy us about Japan. But this thread is not about that, so please don't put any negative vibes on here. Tell us what you LOVE about Japan, even the little things.

I'll start. Free furniture and appliances! Everyone has something that is six months old and they want to replace, so as soon as you arrive in your neighborhood people are offering you kotatsu and coffee makers and rice cookers and zaisu and pots and pans and everything. All free!

The people are interesting and polite. The food is good. The transportation system is efficient. There is lots of scenery and history to enjoy. Everyone at the 7-11 says "irashaimase" when come in, and "arigatou gozaimasu" when I leave.

And are you serious?
I really hope you're being sarcastic
with that remark,
because I really hate it when people
don't appreciate what they have and
where they're from.
That's terrible.

Isn't it terrible when people use the things they buy with their hard earned money? We should all totally throw out our stuff when the newest, shiniest things come along.

Like I said, you can't comment about our country for another 4 years, Mr. Non Voter
