Oh those Japanese!

The title of the article I've linked is "Obama, Japan, roots for accidental namesake." Yes, the article is exactly about what you think it is about.

As many of my American peers are slowly coming to understand, the perception of Japanese pop culture is increasingly described with adjectives like "insane,""ridiculous,""campy,"and "hilarious." This article only goes on to perpetuate those particular stereotypes about modern Japanese culture.
