^ You......completely missed the point, I'm afraid. This isn't about Americans in particular, nor about the Western hemisphere.

When the term "Western" is used in relation to Japan, it refers to everything that is not Eastern Asia. To them, everyone that is not East Asian is "Western". So when they discuss "Western Fandom" or fans, they are referring to everyone else in the world. American, European, African, Australian, ect ect.

Japan doesn't nitpick or divide up based on specific parts of the world. To them, everyone else is "Western". (Remember, they refer to their nation as the "Land of the Rising Sun". So to them, everything ELSE is the West.)
