Japanese anime and manga related events are held on a regular basis in Taiwan. Live performances by Japanese anison artists are not that uncommon either.
It’s become so common now that concerts held in Taiwan don’t even make the news in Japan.
Just take a plane over Okinawa and there in Taiwan you can find another Japan.
There’s no more convenient place to find out more about how all these young people throughout the world feel about Japan’s otaku culture than Taiwan.
The best thing to do is to just go and experience the passion for yourself.
Going to Taiwan and participating in one of these otaku events is something that I can honestly recommend to everyone.
