No.

I sometimes fantasize I learned Japanese as a kid and went to Japan in high school as a transfer student, though.

The closest I came to wishing I was Japanese was that the setting of one of my elaborate daydreaming fantasies was that I died and woke up in a body of a braindead Japanese little girl, and went on to live her life pretending I have lost my memory.

No. I learned english just so I could read what's happening in videogames, having become fluent at age seven. I am also now learning japanese for pretty much the same purposes.

Let me clarify if I may.
For a very long time I never consciously aware of it, but over the last couple of years I've grown more and more annoyed by repressed emotions in otaku entertainment, especially when love in concerned.
Far too often I see character having an internal dialog for things they should be articulating vocally in an equally eloquent manner. It's really a breath of fresh air when a character is able to man the fuck up and say what needs to be said rather than saying something generic like ".... oh nevermind." and then finishing the conversation to him or herself.

Fuck that....... SAY IT, you spineless assholes. It gives me a possibly false impression that Japanese are just like that.

Yes to some parts. I definitely want to know as much about their culture as I can, and possibly move and live there and attempt to integrate as much as is possible. I also really like the Japanese speaking internet and its culture. I don't automatically assume it's superior or that Japan is the best place on Earth to live, but I have this odd fascination, so why not.

I don't really care about my genetics or looks other than the fact that being a gaijin makes living in Japan much harder, and although it makes for nice fantasy, I don't particularly long to have been born there and suffer through their school system and probably work life as well.

One thing that gets me, though, is how fucking physically frail some of the guys over there are. I bumped a guy by accident when I was on the Yamanote during rush hour, and his entire body just felt like it crumpled. Bros over there need to fuckin' exercise and eat some god damn protein.

Went to go meet up with some friends at Akihabara a week ago, coincidentally there was an AKB48 event going on that day. You know those manga that show otaku as a bunch of sweaty/smelly fatasses who tuck in their shirts with socially awkward designs on them? They really do exist, surprisingly.

I also watched a nervous salary man repeatedly bow, apologize and try to piece together a woman's shoe after accidentally stepping on it. He ended up messing it up the shoe even worse somehow and it lead to more bowing and apologizing. It was one of the most embarassing things I've seen in a while.
