This movie had a very profound effect on me. I realized, if I were Japanese, I might have had a similar experience to the main character of this film. But no, my pitiful American upbringing caused my young life to be mostly meaningless.

We're taught when we're little that girls are yucky. And we believe it because we aren't bought up to have respect like the Japanese are. This also reflects on the girls, and when this is all they know from males they end up dating the douchebags when they grow up. Kindness is something no American girl appreciates, while in Japan it is a revered quality in all men.

Sure, there's plenty of ronery men in Japan, but they bring it upon themselves. I was denied meaningful connections with females because of the retarded rules of my society.

TL;DR, if I was Japanese I'd have many tales of beautiful love.

In my experiences, the women have been generally nicer. The guys, too. Sure, every Japanese dude might not be an angel but I can't think of one that I'd call a straight up douchebag. Why do you think the Japanese hold such a low opinion of military men? Because they're all douchebags. That's why no Jgirl worth a damn wants anything to do with them.

Most of the females I met were neither slutty(not that I knew of, anyway) or mean. If you mean cultural reasons as in "I work with this guy, I only see him as my work partner" then I'd agree with you, but that doesn't necessarily lead to malicious intent towards others.

I've never actually worked anywhere in Japan. Though, what I mentioned is a very common Japanese mentality, ie, "my coworker is my coworker" or "my teacher is my teacher" why do you think there's so much porn centered around banging coworkers or teachers/students? The cultural reason they might care less about someone is because they can't imagine them in any other light besides being a coworker.

And umm, if they don't act mean, how can they really be mean then? I don't think I've ever met a truly permiscuious Japanese girl. Though, most foreigners can only speak from experience with gaijin hunters, who are almost always sluts.

This movie had a very profound effect on me. I realized my life is exactly where Takaki's was before he quit his job at the end - my situation may not include a lost childhood love, but I don't think that's what 5cm/s was about at all. I can't watch 10 seconds of this movie without tearing up, both because of its profound beauty, and what it reminds me of; I don't have the guts to do something about my life, so I'm letting it slip by as I sit and watch and do nothing.

Oh 5cm was good, in terms of animation and cinematography. However, putting Shinkai on the levels of storytelling that the likes of Kitano, Miyazaki and Miike and Iwaii are capable of is far from present reality. I'd give him a few more tries to hone the craft, but until then, it's just eye candy.

I've only heard him hailed as "the next Miyazaki" which Shinkai himself thinks is a huge stretch. I haven't heard comparissons to the other three, which is strange, since they aren't anime directors. Though, Shinkai has talent, especially in his pacing, he could do well to explore some new themes. He's a one trick pony so far, but I'd be lying to myself to say he doesn't do his trick very well.

Stop whining, op. 4Chan should've taught you by now that women are arrogant creatures who only listen when they're beat into submission, starved, or chained to the kitchen table.

Based on the way they're raised, women--women from EVERY place--will always be snotty and think they're superior because they're less in numbers than men (see global consensus). Since they're rarer, have the vagoo, and possess breasts, they think that they're much better than men, when in fact their vagoo is useless if no man wants to stick it in them.

It's funny how they don't realize that many of the men who want to stick it in them don't actually care, and that they think the men are ROMANTICALLY interested, or want THEM to feel pleasure. Fuck no, they want to get you drunk, rape your ass, bruise you a bit, jizz on your face and bail for good. That is the ideal male scenario for an attractive woman.

Anyway, the point is that only when women have a bloody nose and two teeth missing will they start to behave like decent human beings.

My work here is done.
