If Japan just adds subtitles like there is in anime then they will have all the white men come over

Japan's depiction in anime has as much to do with reality as the USA does to it's action films.

Bugger all to none.

Action movies feature lots of guns and product placement.

Americans have lots of guns and consume products!
