ninja edit.

anyways, i should've added that i compared apples to oranges slightly in comparing prices of cartoons/anime. the reason is that japan seems to be huge on toys and stuff, especially related to electronics. for instance their arcade scene is still kicking, unlike the atrocity that occurs in the us. but the price of playing is a lot higher. here, most games are 50 cents for 1 credit, and maybe if you're lucky, 25 cents to continue. in japan, one credit is 100 yen. or basically, if the us operated arcades like this, essentially 1 dollar(relatively). although, their arcades are a lot more clean-cut and organized, and they always fix their arcade sticks if broken. but i guess the comparisons still apply a bit.

but i guess this is what happens when japan really wants to make itself this clean-cut high tech country.
