(Anonymous) 2016-08-07 02:06 pm (UTC)(link)But to all of you who are saying this is a country friendly to non-Japanese speakers--yeah, I guess that's true if you're in a city. If you are only visiting Honshu, and not going elsewhere, you probably won't nee English. Tokyo and Osaka and other main cities have a decent amount of help in English.
But I have seen the anger and frustration in people when Japan is not the shiny otaku dream that they envisioned, that they couldn't find something specific they were looking for, or that the warning, "You will walk EVERYWHERE, be prepared to walk constantly," was taken lightly. I've been told that Japan is boring and they'd never done anything fun after showing people around the big famous tourist sights and planning a mini-vacation tailored to them. I've seen the completely crestfallen otaku. Sure, you can accuse me of being a poor tour guide, but if you think that Kyoto is boring then that is on you.
I have a lo of feelings on this, obviously. I love Japan and I love living here. But I DO get worried about the otaku tourists. Because this country is amazing but at the same time you have to realize Japan is just like anywhere else in the world, special and unique and flawed.
