I read an article last week in a major newspaper detailing how it appears to be a thing now in Japan to buy mannequins resembling inflatable dolls and live with them as if they were their partners. I'm sure it has the advantage for a man to never be contradicted or be turned down. Yet, how desperately sad that Japanese men to have to resort to this. It attests to their emotional incapability and human tardiness.
Giants monster and giant robots.
I think of sushi, wasabe and a few car brands like Honda and Toyota.
Also think of a very advanced country with an interesting culture.

Thousands of vending machines. Kind and polite taxi drivers with interesting glooves.

When I think Japan I think of sushi with lots of wasabi and saki. Japanese sports cars and hot Jap girls.
To me Japan equals Nikon, my fave!
Otherwise I associate it with mad people working 24/7 and sleeping at the office, manga portraying underage girls being forced into sex, young girls mimicking sex to paying customers behind a glass and sad lonely men gathering at local bars buying drinks to a really young entraineuse.
The Japanese people I have met have all been very kind and courteous but there is something about their whole modern culture that I find somewhat unhealthy...
I had once started studying the language and for a period of time I was very much into Japanese literature. Yet I think that if Mishima was alive these days and saw all these things, he'd end his life the exact same way he did.

traditions, music, discipline, unique philosophy and poetry, calligraphy, sake, sea food.
When I think of Japan I come up with 2 things; one is the cherry blossoms. I want to see the cherry blossoms because it is calming and so cute. I wanna play with it and i want to watch the flowers as they fall to the ground. Second is Ramen. I am a fan of ramen and one of my favorite ramen houses that we have here in the Philippines is Ramenagi. I like how they create and cook the pasta. I also want to experience going to Japan; see the cherry blossom and eat Japanese foods like Ramen, california maki and sushi.
A bunch of little yellow tinted people.
Mt. Fuji, Sakura, Bullet train, japan flag, Toilet bowl, sushi and Sumo.
japan is known for its various landmarks and dishes but what stands out the most is its Anime industry which is the first thing that pops into my mind when i hear the word japan. their stories are well written and the art of the animation is cute and that i think is the reason why people love it so much.
I come to mind a charming geisha, blooming sakura and hara-kiri 
innovation, quality products.. I try to buy made in USA, Germany, or Japan when possible.
sakura, mount fuji, fukushima, sea food, sake, sushi, anime.
1st thing that comes into my mind when we talk about japan is that, well developed country and the next thing is creativity and art.
Yeah me too. Also, the people follow discipline and up to now, many are still putting honor at a high regard. I think this is what makes japan a much respected country and what makes it at par with the rich countries from europe and america. A lot of respect for these people really
