    I get it. Japan is a rich country but Japanese people may not feel it that way. I've watched it because I'm learning Japanese but asking high school students to get a proper real picture of the Japanese economy and the effects of weak yen on daily life just does not make sense.🤣

      The Yen has dropped 55% vs USD this year. It was down by 30% just last year. Some ASEAN currencies have also gained vs. the Yen.The record number of tourists visiting Japan at the moment is due to this. Hence, the situation is not the same amongst other countries.

    I get paid around 25,0000 JPY/month, with additional housing, medical, and retirement benefits. But I still quit my job in Shanghai, and moved to Osaka looking for better life quality (I think sometimes, life quality is more than just money), so far I really enjoy living in Japan!

    Heiwa Boke is strong in these NPCs. They don't realize they're living in a house that is slowly burning because they don't seem to care to watch what is happening to their economy. Gaman and Shouganai attitudes are what's fueling this economy of NPCs that don't care about politics, but eventually the Gaman will burst and a sinking Japan will no longer be Shouganai.
