Just because a character is fictional doesn't mean you cannot envy them. Which means, Jealous of fictional characters.

And I doubt he's jealous of something that doesn't exist.

Japanese people don't take kindly to foreigners, so I wish you luck I guess. Alternatively, you could spend money on books, since that costs less than moving to a foreign language where people might not like you or understand you that much, if you even can move there.

they don't mind foreigners as long as you learn the language.
well as long as your not chinese

I got quite annoyed after the Haiti earthquake. A baby was taken from the wreckage and people said it was a miracle. It would have been a miracle had God stopped the earthquake. More wonderful was that a load of evolved monkeys got together to save the life of a child that wasn't theirs. ~Terry Pratchett

There's a number of them out there, you just have to look.

I would say however that the 'free' bit is tricky. You're better off in a classroom to learn it.

:unsure: Uh...

Sadly my school doesn't offer it. My only options are A) find a free website or B) pay out the nose to learn it at college and add to the debt I'll likely be dragging around.

A major reason why I am considering moving to Japan is the rapidly growing electronic (especially gaming) industry they have there. I like programming and I can honestly say I am the best in my schools AP programming class. There are just not as many opportunities for my desired job here in the US.

So you have no income, are below 18, and haven't got many skills which Japan would find useful. I think you'd have better luck waiting out the storm here...

You are just jealous

My entire life is based around me skulking in the shadows and in the corners of large rooms watching in envy as Anime Characters do whatever Anime Characters do. I go home and inflict self harm upon myself, curse, do Brownstone and Gak, while listening to Screamo. I do this all because I am jealous of...anime characters. Yes, yes that is it. How dare that animated creation have the pleasure of having Bieberesque Voices and Sparkly Eyes! What type of cruel God would force me to have these, Human Like and Perfectly normal features, and not grant me the blessing of being an Animated cartoon. But alas, I must contend with my poetry and dark room, for I must let my hate out in the art of writing beautiful poems that illustrate my hate against God and The Animations that come from Japan.

But enough of that.

If real like was like "Anime" in general, that suggests that all the Anime and Manga worlds are all mixed together, creating the ultimate world-ender that has unreal qualities and unlimited possibilities. However, even if it was all like that, I'd probably just stay inside and be on the internet all day, as usual.

I'm glad that you recognize it, admiting you have a problem is the first step to getting better.

Meh, I would prefer a good old Loony tunes style in real life, just so I can run across the air as long as I am not aware of it, oh and the damage soak will be great, barely any pain at certain times and always feel better soon after unless the pain ws for a skit or something.

And the mallet, og the mallet and other ridicuallsy weird large weapons I will pull right behind my back.

Anime would be the fith to last of my 10 or so choices of different realities to live in.

Why would he be jealous of a bunch of anime characters? "Oh look at me I'm sparkly! I talk like a girl and carrying a gay ass samurai sword. I think I might go cry now"

Yep. Plenty there to envy. :roll:
