> Not only their appearances but their cultures, can you tell Japanese people from other asian races?
Personally, I can't tell if someone is Chinese, Japanese, or Korean just by looking at them and talking. I mean, I know which one my friends are from their names and because they told me, but some stranger on the street could be any.
But when I look at a website, even with no words written on it, it's easy to tell. Korean websites have lots of round corners and tiny, cute characters, Japanese websites tend towards a strong sense of design and good moé artwork, and Chinese websites are just an utter mess. That's how you really determine culture.
also, "cool" = カッコイイ
