I was not responding to an accusation or difficult question.

I was raising the fact that the same things happens nearby - and one might feel the same sickness over it. And maybe do something about it.

In Japanese there is no distinction between kanji and hanzi, they are the same thing, and written equally - 漢字.

In English, it would be most appropriate to call Chinese language characters hanzi, and Japanese language characters kanji, but this is an English distinction, not one in the native tongues that use these characters.

As the author of these drawings is Japanese, the correct term would be “kanji”, but the word “kanji” literally means “Chinese character”.

I am a Japanese person. I don’t see your point.

Why do you think so?

But in this specific case, it is a Chinese character (because that’s what kanji is, and that’s what the word kanji means), and the character is actually kanji, since it was written by a Japanese author.

Considering Hokusai was Japanese, the descriptions are probably written in Kanji. The word “kanji” itself means Chinese character, so I wonder what exactly is your point?

Japan has some really impressive universities and, as a rich country, is able to nurture all sorts of talent.

The Japanese ruling party is a bunch of old people from a few traditional families mixed with some new faces.

It’s very unfortunate how little these two worlds (talented people and politicians) collide.

Things get byzantine fast in Brazil.

For a moment there you had me wondering why the post office was delivering canned meat.

Used recursion only once. Once.

(but that specific time recursion was really a life saver)

Absolutely, but that process is absolutely not data driven.

“Feeling” about a show, and connections to the people running are the two major factors driving those decisions.

Data driven shows tend to be forgettable and ignored by newer generations, who are the ones holding their parents’s credit cards, and therefore, a major audience for hit shows.

And as soon as they got data involved, the plot quality decreased immensely. By season 3, most people had given up on the show already.
