She might have her own reasons aside from "action figures or niche hobby stuff" (because we do have lots, just very little of Anime/Japanese kinds), though.
I'm not saying the US is awful (because I don't think that), but it's very possible there's more to it than the attractions.
anyway
I know this sounds incredible touristy and weaboo, but I could totally see myself living in Japan (Tokyo in particular). City-like, with actual mountains! Tolerable weather! Everything is so clean! The culture there is so much more group oriented--I seriously want to spend at LEAST a semester there for college.
Honestly it's been a lot more eye opening, for me at least. It's the first time I've really left my home country, and it makes the outside seem less alien.
I was a little worried about leaving for college (especially because I'd like to go out of state), but this has made me feel a lot better.
Travel is exciting!
