/jp/ I'm from /co/ and someone posted this saying that Japan has wasps that can kill you, bats flying everywhere, giant fucking crabs and a serious of other things to be afraid of.

It's...It's not true is it? Japan doesn't have these kind of things, they can't possibly exist.

Give me reasons to be afraid of Japan.

Have you ever eaten sushi? Well, you see, there's those worms of genus Anisakis that live on fish. When the fish is frozen for preservation, the worms actually dig deeper into the fish, avoiding a cold death, so they're very good at getting themselves inside humans. If you eat them by mistake, you may vomit worms for the better part of an hour. Or they may go into your guts and cause even more vomiting and some bloody diarrhea.

I only read accounts of this sort of thing, but another Anonymous shared a live experience.

This one is Japanese spider crab. You better look carefully, because this is four meters of crab. Not very dangerous, they're generally mild-mannered.

Nah, they don't attack humans. They're actually very nice crabs.

You are better off fearing the mantis shrimp (neither mantis nor shrimp) or the coconut crab (neither coconut nor crab. ) Especially with the news that pollution is producing giant mantis shrimps and this:

What did think DECAPODA meant, "delicious seafood" ?

>I didn't know what a mantis shrimp was so I looked it up. I'm glad I don't live in the ocean. There are things down there that man has no business playing with.

Have you read where some can roll themselves into a wheel and roll around like those Star Wars droids, are partially land-capable and can survive in sewers only to eat all the waste food discarded there to grow to huge sizes?

Ah, the "rolling" is actually part of ritualist combat between rival males. They can curl up their backside and use it as a shield when other males attack. They can easily cut off fingers, they're very nasty. I think they can get up to three feet long. There are a few smaller ones on the Atlantic Coast of the US.

Japan also has the pure evil that is the goblin shark. GIF, by the by.
