I have just discovered this series and I am completely in love with it
I wish to goodness Japan hadn't thrown away so much of its material culture and replaced it with Western stuff. Western clothes are fine, but it's so boring if everyone everywhere wears them! I probably would look weird walking around Japan in a yukata or whatever given that I'm as white as white can be, but maybe if I was walking with a kimono-wearing wife it would be less weird...?
