So if you guys love Anime and Japan so much. Why dont you join the glorious nippon Self defense forces on a ship? Not only you can watch anime and manga to your hearts content but also learn to speak Japanese and cosplay Ken Shiro during a BBQ day?

Just a thought you know guys...

I only love anime, not Japan. I wish anime had been invented by the French instead.

You can't join military force of foreign country so easily. No, you can't even cross the boarder and stay in foreign country at all without proper documents (we call VISA, and they have different types of VISA, some countries don't even allow freelancers VISA).
You can always join your own military with same experience and better benefits

Unfortunately not true; and they don't like social autists who, to them, appear unfriendly and unwilling to socialize and worst of all different.

Source: Didn't fit in (socially, interactions) in the infantry.

No, and that was 10 years ago. It was filled with jock/chad normalfags but more alcoholic and violent, not that I was a weakling but they didn't like me because I was bad at talking and a loner. I don't know what the nu-military is fulled with.

The military isn't a hugbox, if you don't fit in you are ostracised and abused until you do fit in or you get out. I didn't fit in socially so the only reason I was more or less left alone was because I went over and beyond on fitness, including in my own time, and I was good at the skilled side of the job.

Anons ITT: DO NOT join the military if you are a normalfag (working class, not reddit college leftist) or can keep up a convincing act and don't mind doing so. You will be miserable.

I'm already in the canadian forces and leaving for a 6 month navy deployment today. Didn't see myself on sailing on a boat when I joined the airforce, but here we are.
Just finished filling a portable drive with anime to watch on my phone or steam deck. I've caught people watching anime here and there but most of the people I'm with are normies so I'll hide my power level for now.

Living on a ship is pretty miserable I'm not sure how some make a career out of it.
