Japanophilia is the appreciation and love of Japanese culture, people, history and media. Chris is a huge fan of japanese entertainment and culture from a very long time. Sonic, Pokemon, Playstation and anime are all Japanese entertainment that Chris enjoys a lot.
He has chosen Japanese media over American alternatives multiple times, [[PS3] over the XBox, Sonic over The Adventures of The American Rabbit (though one can't blame Chris for leaving that behind), he has also said that a lot of media is better in Japanese[1]
Chris also ranks Japan 2nd on his list of countries he wants to visit. Since going to The Buckingham Palace to claim his crown is more important to him. [2]
People
Chris shows a positive outlook at Japanese people, he hadn't excluded Japanese women from his Love quest and has said he would date and go deeper with Japanese women.[3][4] Though Chris's tendency to not care about people other than himself arises here again - He has regularly confused chinese and japanese people and has also created a stereotypical asian character.
Culture
Chris apparently is a huge fan of Japanese culture, when asked what he likes about their culture, he said he likes their technology, ninjas, kung-fu (a chinese martial art) and the peaceful way of life outside of violence.[5] What the last part means is anyone's guess.
In the mailbag when he was asked the same question, he replied "I appreciate the portions japan culture that promote cleaniness in the home, showing gratitude, and those good and kind gestures"[6] I.e he enjoys qualities that he himself lacks completely.
Chris also spends 31.5$ per month on the premium edition of the TokyoTreat box, which gets him some cheap snacks and trinkets all the way from Japan. Till date Chris has spent a 1000$ on this since at least October 2017[7]
Chris has also said that if he could learn any language instantly, he would pick Japanese. [8]

Chris being a huge connoisseur of TV shows and movies has stated his deep interest in anime multiple times, he watches anime with Japanese audio and English subtitles[9] and enjoys Japanese animation over American animation as he considers the anime stories and art styles to be superior to the American counterparts. He also likes the fact that censorship is more lenient in Japan due to which some minor cuss words are allowed in TV-Y rated shows. [10][11]
His interest in anime peaked after he met Megan, to the point where he started incorporating anime-esque art styles into his comics. He continues to use the same art style to this date although with minor changes. Many tropes he uses in the comics are also directly lifted from Excel saga, Dragonball and Sailor moon.[12] Chris also finds many of the japanese theme songs to be superior.[13]
Most of his favourite shows and movies are all Japanese such as Sailor moon, Samurai Pizza cats, Excel saga, Sonic X, Transformers[14] and Pokemon movies.
Is Chris a weeaboo?
No.

01:00 <@CVDierten> What is better and why: Japanese anime or American anime?
01:01 <@CVDierten> err... American animation
01:01 <@ChrisChanSonichu> Japan, hands-down; espeially when roughly-translated with subtitles; accidentally saying a curse-word in japanese is funny. - IRC (18 December 2008) - ↑ I'm not sure what you mean by Western or Eastern, unless you mean American and Japan (Anime) Animation. I like Anime a bit better, because it is mostly better drawn and rendered compared to American, plus the stories are usually better, and sometimes the original Japanese Audio, even in the TV-Y area, has some curse words. LOL :D - Regina emails
- ↑ Can you include more anime in your comics?
I have watched a good amount of anime, and I will watch for more instances to include anime references; "Excel Saga" is one that inspired a portion of the comics with parodies and the "Intrusive Director". - Mailbag 3 - ↑ A Lot of things are better in Japanese, despite country of origin. Even the Sonic X theme song original Japan version is a LOT better than the US version.
