I lived in Japan for a few years, and as a young kid back in the sixties, it was interesting and culturally odd place for me.
Since then, I understand the Japanese have become very offbeat in some respects that is revealed in game shows they create and vending machines they deploy.
I read something on FR a while back about a vending machine in Japan that sells women’s underwear that has been worn...
I remember thinking: Only in Japan.
all true.
