I was in Japan last month. The backgrounds in anime like buildings, streets etc are pretty accurate. I find it strange that SA and PA don't show up too much in anime even though they are pretty important. Onsen is a lot less crazy irl. :D

Not that I expected Japan to be like in anime or anything, I did think of certain stereotypes such as the vending machine thing, and shops being everywhere. I thought all of that stuff was over exaggerated but it wasn't. As far as the people, they seemed pretty normal, I didn't talk to too many Japanese people though.

I believe I have a fairly accurate sociological concept of Japan. We'll see when I get back.

Droves of gothic lolita schoolgirls, used panty vending machines and tech shops. Ok, not really but I did love hearing about those things the most.
