I think Japan is pretty fucking awesome, plenty of times I've been confronted about that though, people think it's weird since I'm party Chinese that I don't care about that but I do japan.
Here are my reasons:
Video games - Dragon Quest and Shenmue 2 are some of the greatest games ever.
Music - Not all of Japan's music is good, but japan birthed bands like Merzbow and Boris.
Sex - Japan has far better porn then the west, in the west porn is degrading whereas in Japan the porn feels more intimate and honest, I mean, but thats just me, four guys having a bukkake session with a cute girl is a lot better then some ugly generic looking whore with a huge ass having fake orgasms while some ugly bald guy fucks her anus.
Food - Japan has some pretty interesting foods
Japan is the most interesting country because of their technology and various other things.
