[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;35940147]Well coming from a Japanese family and being Japanese myself I can pretty much confirm this.
I remember when my ex always wanted to hold hands with me in public.
Nope. Too shy. It's like genetically wired into us to be reserved and polite, it feels really awkward to watch two people climbing all over one another.[/QUOTE]
That doesn't explain all the creepy stuff coming from Japan.
They will probably lower their borders and allow mass immigrantion from third world countries then black and arabs will rule their country in 500 years.
Their calculation is bullshit
they assume that the population will decline with a constant, linear rate for 1000 years. Even a first-grader knows this is not how the world works.
But who else is going to create these awesome music video's they always do when they are no more

Of course it does, if you understand emotion.
We each have our share of desires and impulses. If you suppress those things, deny their existence, then they find a way to express themselves in a different way. Japan and sexuality have a colored history, to put it lightly. The strangest things that come from them in that regard are a result of repression.
In many ways, the reaction to what comes out of Japan is similar to why it was produced in the first place.
A freaking millennium? Really?
So much can happen in a millennium, making such long predictions like this is dumb.

Not only do they have to find enough time to find a solution, they have plenty of time to find a [I]creatively Japanese[/I] solution
This is essentially what these scientists are doing

No because they will be too busy fucking their anime robots.
[QUOTE=Pierrewithahat;35940205]Do you not understand statistics and extrapolation?
It's pretty simple, here's what you do:
1. Take the total current population of Japan
2. Take the current death rate in Japan
3. Take the current birth rate in Japan
Now you check how many people will die each year, and the number of people born in Japan each year and if the dead number is bigger then it means Japan is in decline. If it is bigger, then you divide that number into the total population and you'll have a rough guide of how long it'll take.
Kaboom, easy, science bitch.[/QUOTE]
Never said I don't understand it, it's just that it ISN'T possible to predict, nothing to do with me not understanding it.
Great, it's the CURRENT population, the CURRECT death rate and the CURRENT birth rate, do you not stand that it can change A LOT in just a few years? Do you really believe the factors will stay the same?
Yes, it does "show" that if nothing of that changes they will die out, but it is completely unlikely that it won't change. Maybe it will change for worse and they will die out in 500 years, maybe they won't die out in I don't know how many years.

I foresee tentacles in the future of Japan
Aren't the main Japanese islands overpopulated anyway? Honshu at least. I'm pretty sure this is a natural progression in post-industrial societies.

Not overpopulated so much as simply overcrowded in urban areas. Space is extremely limited, and infill is getting worse. However, towns are generally the size you'd expect them to be, and there's a *lot* of rural land with small towns and hamlets even today, so it's really only an issue in the cities, Tokyo, for example, where it's getting to the point where there would be nothing but urban development between it and several other cities nearby.
Eh, they have invented communicating butts, they'll think of something.
Seriously, today's Popular Threads had a thread saying they invented a literal posterior that communicates through vibrations of buttcheeks. I wish I was making this up.
[QUOTE=zzaacckk;35939725]As soon as the population starts to die out people will just start having more children?[/QUOTE]
Yeah, if there's less people, the people left are going to have more money and be able to father more children, right?
Unless, since there's less people to produce shit, you'll have less overall money, making for a constant concentration of dosh.
I'm not good with economy.
impregnable animes is obviously the only solution
don't worry guys, i'm saving the people over here from extinction as we speak.
Why does it sound like japan thinks they are a completly different race and not humans?
at least that's what the title made me think

But the chances of the birth rate staying like this 1000 years straight is almost impossible. Cultures change, countries rise and fall, and even IF culture and countries are very similar to how they are now (which is HYPOTHETICAL, that would never happen) then people would find out how to fix it within 1000 years.

Not much has changed but they lived underwater and also there are no Japanese people
[QUOTE=The golden;35939830]I think a bigger concern is that the world we call home might not even be habitable in 80+ years.[/QUOTE]
Not habitable to us, really.

There was some weird research being done on men a while ago, claiming Man would eventually die out (would take hundreds of thousands or something years?). Monogender sounds fun. Always thought what it would have been like to be a woman...

I assumed this thread was going to be about the island sinking due to the massive earthquakes they get from being on the colliding edge of the plate.
Knowing the Japanese government they would probably make a national procreation day
Good.
So they base lots of this with men currently not with a girlfriend?
They can always change and get one you know.
I know the hentai and loli will be extinct....oh noes what will they do?
