please comment Kyomu
Me personaly, not offended.
To the contrary, i feel something ourselves as bad asses. Because when we were fighting against USA in WWII, they called us like that.
If US people didnt consider us as a threat, they wouldnt have called us like this.
But, I think that many people dont feel good if some americans call jap to japanese in their face.
More than disrespect, they would take you as a sign of fight.
