Asian cultures are just interesting from my POV. Think about how the English fascination with Roman ruins embedded all sorts of Roman allegory and content into popular culture.
Japan and China has their own stories, histories and empires dating back thousands of years, but they just aren’t a part of western culture and education. It’s a novelty for some and a passion for others because of the aspect of discovery. I know very little about Chinese history, but if you grabbed 100 of my not-Chinese peers, I probably know more than 90 of them.
