Apparently in the manga this is based on, she also smokes, a trait they took out here.

They even took out the jokes based around her smoking, so I assume they wanted her to appear more "normal"?

How common is smoking nowadays in Japan?

Maybe they toned it down from the manga, but I remember her smoking or holding cigarettes a few times in the anime, and they talked about her needing to stop smoking if she got pregnant.

EDIT: Actually, episode 6 was almost entirely about her trying to stop smoking.

Yeah, probably that. The manga just has a very lose style, so I thought she was smoking nearly every panel.

You know, they could just allow filthy foreigners in and let them actually naturalize.

...Nah, let's try for like the dozenth time to propagandize our disaffected generation of 20-30-somethings into breeding so we can keep our super awesome pure Japanese heritage. That'll work.

How badly do you want a Japanese waifu?
