Yeah, I was expecting Spike Spiegel (my avatar from Cowboy Bebop) or some anime character on the bank notes. By the way, this is an article of who the people are on the Japanese currency: Who are the people on Japanese yen banknotes? | Time Out Tokyo
Man, Japan is funny. The Japanese even have a Hello Kitty themed bullet train: Ride the super cute Hello Kitty Shinkansen!
Yes, for one iconic example.
Man, this washing machine is why Japan is awesome. Kawaii (cute) design

Nice. I should try Evangelion, cos I heard good things about that anime.
It's a classic for a reason. I used to have the series and End of Evangelion on VHS. I do need to watch the reimagined movies though, heard they are good too. For newer stuff, if you haven't already seen it, Frieren: Beyond Journey's End is the best 28 episodes I've seen in a while.
I will try it out. Got a lot of live actions shows to finish first. My library has free DVD rentals, so I will use that.
That is pretty cool. I wish I had some Japanese friends to talk to, and ask about their culture.
Funny you should ask. Fukuoka, the biggest city on Kyushu, requires you to use official bike parking facilities in the city center. But they are so ridiculously complicated that my local tour guides (I did a half day guided bike tour of the city to start out my trip) said they couldnt even figure them out. Other than that I loved urban biking in Fukuoka.That is pretty cool. I wish I had some Japanese friends to talk to, and ask about their culture.
Yes, bike touring is a great, eco-friendly way of exploring a city. Hopefully Kyushu had plenty of bike racks. Not all cities (at least in the US) are very bike friendly.
Wow, the central city's bike racks look confusing. In other countries, especially the countries inside of the EU, the bike racks are next to the buildings.
