This will be interesting.. Did you guys knew how much Japanese are otakus? Well probably, but hear this. They are totally in love with the famous RPG game Dragon Quest. It is the most popular there. Not so much popular at the west, but in Japan… Oh boy. It is also my favorite RPG that I played, but I am definitely not even as close fan as these guys, check this out.
When a new game comes out, at the same day you can hear, actually no one… No one is at the work, at the school, at playground, anywhere!! And where they are? Well you can guess three times, waiting in a mile long snake of people waiting to buy the new game at the game store.
This is serious, people even take day off at work and kids are running from school to buy it and play. You can even see up to 50% less people on places that they should be, at work or school during these days.
It’s crazy! So crazy that Japanese government actually put a law where that game can’t come out during working days. YES, they are that hardcore. xD
But hey, that’s just so awesome, I would like to go and see one of those days how it is there! :D
So you all now know which game a Japanese will definitely recommend, lol.^^

I tried to find the image where I have seen a HUGE line of Japanese waiting at the gamestore, but I couldn't find it anymore. Though I found this one, and it is maybe not for DQ, but still for a very famous anime RPG there called Tales of Vesperia.
Okay, it is open now!! :D My world that I wanted to create long before for all the random and interesting facts about Japan and anime in general.
I finally did it and I hope that you all look forward to the posts that I will be putting here.^^
I decided to go with this design. It is the same just the color is different, I tried with orange one, but for some reason sunset theme adds some unnecessary borders, so I wasn't sure does it look refreshing enough.
At the end I went with this one, but I will see in the near future.^^ Also thanks to Hulaberry32 for giving me advices on the color combination and usage of that background. She will also make the banner for this world.
As for this world I already have some plans what to put. So imagine something like combination of many many other worlds all thrown together.

First short interesting fact that I will put here is the emoticons fact. You probably all didn't knew but there is two division of emoticons (or three but some place the Korean ones next to Japanese ones together).
For example everyone uses the basic ":D :P 8O :3 >:-D" and so and so on emoticons.. But actually, these are so called "Western ones". Eastern or Japanese ones are something in terms of "^_^ ^-^ -_-' @_@" and many more, some so complex that they are even hard to remember. Now there are also Korean ones. They go well with Japanese since they use them together and the most famous one that I have also seen here is the "OTL" one.

I hope that you all enjoyed this random fact guys and have a nice day!! ^_^
