Hey jaypee. I'm thinking about moving to Hawaii. It's a beautiful Island Nation that is right in the middle of the two Nations I love the most (Japan and America). Plus it has a high demographic of Japanese and Asian women (Because I'm a typical weeaboo faggot I only like Asian women).

Is moving to Hawaii a good idea?

We have plenty of asian women. Tons of them. Heck, we even have the original Anna Millers.

...But beyond the japanese tourists, you're not gonna find any real submissive women here.

All the second-generation and on kids raised here don't share the same values or mannerisms of their japanese heritage. So don't come here expecting to be treated as anything more than some jerkass tourist to be milked for money.

Can't really say.

From what I've experienced, anime and weeaboo stuff in general is definitely more mainstream than it is in California. That's to be expected from the high percentage of Asians living in Hawaii and relative proximity to Japan.

Of course, there's Asians who don't really care for weeaboo stuff as well, so you'll still get weird looks if you don't suppress your power level.

Big part of Asian folks here already blended in. Majority of them are 2+generation, they look Asian but act and think like the rest of America pretty much. If you like Asian folks just cuz of the looks, then idk what to tell you. Our gas price is THE highest in the nation, and our rental/real estate cost is on of the highest.

tl;dr don't do it.

I'm white, but I'm moving to Hawaii for social reasons. You see, I just don't get along with other whites for some reason.... It's different with Asians --I just seem to click with them, you know? All of my friends are Asian, and once this girl said to me that in my past life I was probably an Asian, because I act just like an Asian. In fact, I think I'm even starting to look more Asian. I really don't like being white, and i feel no connection at all to other white people. When I get to Hawaii, I'll never be lonely again!

Moving to Hawaii is expensive. If you actually have the money to blow to do something like that you're better off spending it on name brand clothes and gym membership or whatever it is to make yourself more attractive and to pick up gold-digging whores where ever you already live.

If you have tons of money then go for it. I've lived in Hawaii all my life. Living expenses are not cheap. It's almost impossible to live on one income unless you have a high paying job and even then I doubt you'll find a good place. I mean fuck my family's electric bill this month was $500 and there are only 3 people living here and we don't use the a/c and try to conserve as much as possible.

What the fuck? I don't know who is paying $10 for a loaf of bread but you can get a loaf for under $3 (depending what brand and where you go).

I was on the north shore surfing and I stole this kid's wave and he hit me in the back of the head with something. I went under and end up washing up on the beach blowing bubbles.
