> Take Japan, for a relevant example. Many things in japan are given an extra small twist to aesthetically elevate them.

I've been to Japan. How would you comment on the aesthetic of this "Little Texas" bar in Tokyo: https://www.littletexas.jp/

Do you think they are valuing the true culture of modern Texas? Because in my opinion this bar is filled with the most basic Texas cliches I can think of: cowboy hats, longhorn skulls, etc. Probably a lot more egregious than putting a sakura on a poster.



I said new-age products are an exception, the bar was opened in 2005. It also kind of proves my point, once Western culture ingratiated itself into Japan the art culture got a bit worse.
