Why do most emotionally disturbed adolescences find interests in Japanese

[College Student]

I don't think it's in anyway related to reading manga.. I'm into it but i don't think i'm emotionally disturbed, although there are times when i feel so depressed that i find relief in reading my favorite manga titles or watching anime stuff.. Happy New Year!

culture, such as Manga? This is something I've noticed recently. I have friends that are, and have been emotionally disturbed and they all have interests in Japanese things. Is this just coincidence, or what?

This is the biggest over adsazdurated sterio type I've ever heard!!! God ahve you heard that all depressed people like cats?

its very emo to be into that kind of stuff. all my emo friends are into it. perosnally i dont get it but hey, thier choice

maybe it is because a lot of the stories deal with pain and stuff like that.

It's just a cliche of "emo kids": read manga books. Most do it just to fit in with their crowd.
