um....I hope this is where I put it.... Anyway I've been noticing that The DCFDTL have used some Ways in Japanese culture. either A) Their Japanese or B) Mr. Warburton has to lay off watching Miyazaki movies Well I have some examples: In Operation Zero The Blonde Girl Bows to #0 and #1 In Japan They bow when they first meet someone right? I also noticed some of them were wearing Samurai helmets (Lenny and the blonde girl) But the regular DC Wear school uniforms....only the girls have the Sailor uniforms like in Japan. Anyone agree/disagree have anymore examples?

Methinks you're reading too much into it.
Bowing is by no means a distinctly Japanese trait. France, Britain, and several European countries are also known for it.
Uniforms are also nowhere near being a distinctly Japanese trait, having been instituted in several countries (And even in America, in some schools). Also "proper uniforms" are common in high society families, which Father and the DC are initially presented as.
The samurai helmets... well, some kids just like to wear them, just like some kids like to put on pirate caps, spaceman helmets, cowboy hats, etc.
No offense, but I think it would do people some good to read up on other cultures instead of assuming that every slightly-uncommon thing comes from anime.

Yeah, I don't think they're supposed to be Japanese. It'd be more obvious if they were. Their emphasis on comformity also means nothing. They're more creepy that way.

How could he watch too many? Miyazaki didn't make that many...

Maybe he was watching them over and over.
