[ the video turns on with Japan surprisingly outside the mansion. he seems to be having difficulty walking a bit while carrying the long piece of bamboo which is definitely taller than him ]

I am glad the vendor's had these..

[ he stops in front of the entrance to the Mansion and sticks the bamboo next to the door. After making sure it stays upright, he notices the camera on and turns towards it ]

Ah, I realize we are right in the middle of a...uncomfortable event, but I did want to celebrate this. Today is Tanabata, the day when Orihime and Hikoboshi are allowed to cross the Milky Way and meet each other. In my country, we celebrate this day by writing our wishes on a piece of paper and hanging them on this bamboo. If anyone would like to join in on this celebration, please do. I will leave the papers next to the bamboo.

[ he sets down a stack of vertically long paper next to the bamboo, and bows to the camera before switching it off ]

Yes. Before here, I was residing in Inaba while assisting the police in some murder cases.

My name's detective Naoto Shirogane. And you are?

Inaba? Ah, the western part then?

It is nice to meet you, Naoto-san. My name is Japan.

That's correct.

[ she laughs when hearing his name, IN A COMPLETELY FRIENDLY MANNER. ] Your parents must truly love their country to give you that name.

Ah... [ Japan laughs just a little too IT'S OKAY NO OFFENSE TAKEN although if I was a kid with a country name I would shank the parents ] I suppose you have not met one of us yet. I am the anthropomorphic personification of the country "Japan", Naoto-san.

[ pause, pause, pause.

silence. uh. ]

Pardon?

I am the country Japan.

...

....Ah.......Naoto-san?

Forgive me.

[ TRYING TO FIND WORDS. ]

It is alright.

An anthropomorphic personification... [ you might hear some writing. ]

Are there others?

Yes, there are. America, Germany, Hungary, Iceland, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Taiwan, Austria, Lithuania, Poland, and Russia. [ Canada who? ]

[ write write write. ]

...What does it mean, being a nation?

We are mostly like any other person, except for the fact that we live as long as the country exists and that we are harder to kill. We are also connected to our land, and internal occurrences affect us as well.

[ first though = WWII, i am so sorry, japan. ]

...It sounds like that would be a difficult duty to uphold.

[ it's okay /patpat ]

..It is at times, but I enjoy being what I am.

I understand.

Nonetheless, it's a pleasure to meet... my own nation.

It is a pleasure to meet my citizen as well.

[ SOB A SOMEWHAT NORMAL CITIZEN THAT APPARENTLY I LACK ]

[ WE WILL BECOME BESTIES. ]

As at home, if you ever need my services, merely ask. While I've never said this directly to my nation, I am dedicated to making life peaceful for all of... your citizens.

[ YES GRAND.... .......CHILD ]

I admire your determination. Thank you, Naoto-san. If you are in need of my help as well, please tell. My job is to serve my citizens, after all.

[ I AM 16 YEARS OLD. I AM NO LONGER A CHIIIILLDDDDDDDDD sob. ]

Thank you.

[ PFFT YOU ARE A BABBY TO JAPAN ]
