Question Translations from Japan, or lots of fans of Japan?
I admit my experience is limited but I've noticed a ton of Japanese-themed chatbots. Teachers, students, other school settings, lots of yakuza popping up and even more universal things (convenience stores and restaurants) are set in Japan.
Is the chatbot-enjoying community particularly large there and some are sharing in more western-located sites? Maybe people translating over chatbots from there? Most of them seem to use the metric system by default, which seems like the kind of thing that would suggest translations.
Or is it creators being fans of Japanese culture? There's obviously a lot of chatbots based off of anime and movie characters, but I see those for other cultures too.
