Personal individuality in Japan is so repressed, people have no choice but to express themselves through art or online creative spaces.

In the US, there are more ways to express yourself, so art becomes less of an obvious outlet.



Maybe in the countryside and smaller towns, but in Tokyo at least people express themselves through fashion and style quite unabashedly, especially in the parts with the largest populations of younger people.
