A survey of 5,000 Japanese reveals that a quarter would rather die in Poseidon’s watery embrace than live in another Asian country.
The situation:
“Japan will sink in one month!
But the kind countries of Asia have agreed to take in the Japanese; your citizenship will change to that country.
Which Asian nation will you go to?”
1. 24.3% “Then we shall sink together!”
2. 19.2% Taiwan
3. 11.3% Singapore
4. 6.6% Thailand
5. 3.8% Korea
6. 3.6% Bhutan
7. 2.9% The Maldives
8. 2.8% India
9. 2.7% Malaysia
10. 2.7% Brunei
China scrapes in at 11th with 2.6%.
The rest of the responses are to what are presumably considered even more wretched hives of Asian foreignness. Last on the list are Pakistan and the various central Asian religious tyrannies.

Guys, you shouldn't point out the fact that Malaysia is quite low in the list.
What you should realize that it's in the fucking top 10 in the first place.
There are like, hundreds of countries in the world and I'm fucking surprised that Malaysia made it into their top 10 list.
Notice that only Asian countries were asked.
I'd like to see the survey if they included western countries too...
Who the hell would want to live in a Muslim country other than Muhammadfags?
I'm surprised no one said America, considering they LOOOOVE western culture so much they even want to look like them ;)
But South Korea has the fastest internet connection in the world.
Well WWII "strained" their relations
It does i tot it was Japan?
All hair to the Great Russia!
PS And don't event think of touching the Kuril Islands!
oh, shut the fuck up, stupid "поцреот".
go suck yours Putin's lovely dick.
we must give back to Japan ASAP:
- Kuril Islands
- Sakhalin
- Kamchtatka
- all Far East
- Yakutia
- all Siberia and
- Yamal Peninsula
- and Ural, obviously.
(i can serve as governor of Ural for new regime, if you don't mind, and my first decree will be change-over to LHT)
and let's moscow go fuck youself.
Normally I would guess that if they really had to choose between sucking communist dicks at china or drowning in nipponland they would logically choose life over death, but this is kamikaze japan.
20% would drown.
you people may think that taiwan and china are the same thing on paper but if you go to each IMO taiwan > china
I just realize.
WTF? BHUTAN? NO, SERIOUSLY. BHUTAN? WTF? WHY NOT MOZAMBIQUE?
Yeah Singapore! Though i hate my country but if Japanese girls will to come to Singapore i will glady screw them :D
If no local girls will take you up on your offer, I don't think any girl will take you up on your offer, regardless of where they come from loser.
I can imagine it, 120 * 20% = 24 millions Japanese settling in Taiwan.
Where is Russia in the list? Not enough love for Putin?
More than like not enough love for Stalin the man of steel
*Stalin is Russia's icon not Putin
Darn you Stalin! Putin rocks!
GO INDONESIA!!
MERDEKA!!
They would rather go to places like Bhutan, India and Indonesia than Canada, the UK, and America?
The Japanese educational system needs a little work.
It clearly says "the kind countries of Asia". Since when Canada, UK and US are from Asia?
I can understand them. I mean, would you like to live in any of these countries? Most, if not all, are 3rd world shit (and I live in a 3rd world country, so I can tell) and there are the dictatorships and such. Also, as far as I know, some of these countries aren't in good relations. I might be wrong, but I think japanese hate China and Korea, and maybe others. So, yeah, it makes some sense that they'd rather die than going to these places.
no philippines in the list?
12 フィリピン 78 (1.6%) philippines
#12 if you follow the link
Make Philippines be cleared of idiots, moralfags and other lowlife people before the Japanese or Koreans make it their colony.
Japan might turn into Rapture if it does really sink.
Well this "What if..?" scenario is certainly different.
I've come to realize that people on sankaku can't argue for shit about anything, so stop arguing.
i'd like to dispute this because i can dispute this.
for singapore!
C'mon, it's Japan. I'm sure they'll be able to build cities underwater before it happens.
It can't be helped!
Omg.... Brunei is in the list @_@
.... WHYYYYYYYYYY
Why is Brunei on the list >.<
Is it bad for Brunei in the list? At least it's one of the nearest country to Japan.
What about, uh, Russia? They're practically touching.
Well I don't see Canada on the top of the list they seem friendly enought to except Japanese.
Where the fuck is Brunei? lol
Get a world map and look it up. Or better yet, Wiki that shit.
In Borneo Island, near Australia and Indonesia-- one of the Sout-East Asia.
Fuck em.
Well what did we expect? Japan is superior (even under water)
lol
Talk about having pride for standing up and admitting that 1/4 of Japanese would rather stay and drown then go anywhere else. I knew that somehow this world is crazy and a few other things, but I'll save that talk for later.
Anyway, this survey really getting them to explain what what they would if anything happens to their proud country.
Sure they say that online, but if it were to happen you know everyone would try to leave and wouldn't care where. Bushido is dead.
Exactly. Matter of fact I think lots of them would rather flock to America. Say what you want about this country, America's pretty awesome when you think about it compared to other countries concerning personal freedom, etc.
The Japanese think of themselves as the kings of the asia. World War II anyone....... so this is not that surprising.
That ~25% of Japanese that say they would rather "sink," I bet well over half of them wouldn't do it. Tough talk but can they walk the walk?
1. its a poll (and an internet one at that, correct?)
2. Everyone likes to look amazing and badass tough
3. Is japan really sinking?
Most hate Korea over China though.
“Then we shall sink together!”
I love this answer. I think I'd be tempted to choose it in the case they did an "The United States of America is sinking..." version. For the lulz?
Wow, there's even somebody in Japan wants to go to Brunei? Unbelieveable!!! XDDD
there's this nice chain of tropical islands known as "Indonesia", why don't you want to live there? 1000x times better than the friggin' unstable Zipangu.
Singapore's third priority. I say, WELCOME TO SINGAPORE!
Canada here, we already took in too many Chinese people.
But you're free to come to Ottawa. There's too many Lebanese people here anyway.
Most of their choice made me laugh,sorry for being mean
why this in the forum now?
Obviously you didnt read the sticky post, didnt you?
"The integration of the main site and site forums is now complete, in its first iteration at least.
Posts made on either side will show up on the other. "
they should go to mongolia, or canada
What about the non-religious tyranny of Russia?
Excuse me suckah, (HK) resident here. HK is a part of China now.
Earlier comment about Chinese hating China...
durhhh... you fail. Propaganda has a lot of people won over and the economic situation is quite good atm.
Not sure what I prefer though, prolly being part of Britain, sucky traffic regulations not withstanding.
South Korea is to Japan what Canada is to the US.
South Korea is to Japan what the US is to Canada
The Japanese can stay in Davao, Philippines for sure. Many of them have been staying there since the American occupation period and the city is safer than in Manila, I think.
That survey shows that about %75 will live anywhere else in Asia in a pinch: Any port in a storm I guess.
Now how about giving them the option of anyplace in the world? I wonder if that remaining %25 would still rather sink than swim.
The girl in the pic should be drowning in semen, not in a swmming pool!:D
The main question here not where but how. There just won't be enough time to chose. >.<
looks more like a ordered list of countries to invade in WW3
Don't worry, my fellow Japanese ppl!
Russia is always wellcome you all!
(especialy loli)
Russia is partial Asian country too - just check some maps and find "Europe/Asia Border", its near SwerdLOVEsk-City (a.k.a. Yekaterinburg)
And Russia is "Land of the Rising Sun" too, but sun have never been rising over us...
oooh! malaysia is actually in the list!
and singapore's 3rd? if japan ever sinks they'd be closer then. nice~
JAPAN AND KOREA IS DOKDO TERRITORY.
URI NARA MANSAE!
LONG LIVE DOKDO EMPIRE.
독도 제국
우리 나라 만세 !!!!
우리 나라 만세 !!!!!
I AGREE! JAPAN AND KOREA IS DOKDO TERRITORY!!
LONG LIVE DOKDO EMPIRE!!!
I propose zone "New Japan" in the interior of British Columbia, Canada. We have more then enough space for all of Japan.
Wat's wrong with being patriotic?
Long Live the Neo Greater East Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere! Down with the White Devils! Down with Western Imperialism!
If I had to pick something besides China Taiwana would top my list as well. Taiwan is the best economy, government, and freedoms of all asia it's an easy choice. Main;and china can screw off though.
You're my bro man.
I'm from Taiwan China can go screw itself along with every other country
JAPS are not Welcum to the Philippine Islands. just kidding.
well, if they want to, why not? ;) but from the statistics I saw, only 1.6%, LOL! XD forget it. and hey, our population is already ballooning @ approx. 90M peeps. sh*t! :D
Choosing to sink doesn't necessarily mean they hate other countries (though I can easily imagine that a large portion of them do think that way).
I mean, if you do this poll in any country, many people will prefer sinking with their own country, out of blind patriotism.
truth, another open minded view of the subject.
Question: Was this poll given to random Japanese or Japanese otaku or another polarized section of Japanese?
It was given to users of sankaku complex.
What?
so no answer?
If this included any other countries in the world. They'd all be coming to Canada for sure.
if my country is sinking, i'll go to japan
....but then again,, japan would've been sunk by then....
Lets change the question: you can get shot or change your nationality.
depends where i get shot. if its a fatal shot then id be a black guy cuz it would be like life on really really hard mode.
hard mode? Yeah getting into college for free is l33t haxxor nvm the the free racism card they give you when your born. Also for some reason you get 2 phone calls when you go to prison, yay!
This.
Go to other Asian countries? That's stupid. Japan will make a bunch of GeoFronts over that.
am i dreaming? i saw malaysia?
LoL I saw Malaysia too and a thought came to my mine. like.....
welcome back!?
i'm quite sure that's a typo there...they kinda mistaken the flag of malaysia as the flag of US
lol...........
dont worry. they dont care about Western countries
malaysia scored pretty low imo. they got some serious business running over there.
non-natives, not japanese.
ifc sux u know.
i'm surprised it is not 0%....maybe they don't know how unwell the non-natives are treated in malaysia..
