'''Japanophilia''' is the appreciation and love of Japanese culture, people, history and media. Since his youth, Chris has been fond of Japanese media and culture. [[Sonic]], [[Pokemon]], [[Playstation]] and [[anime]] are all Japanese creations that Chris enjoys. While Japanophilia is a well-established concept, existing in western society since the latter half of the 19th century with the Opening of Japan and becoming amplified in scope and popularity since the 1960's, Chris's love for Japan is [[Autism|on a whole different level]].
