    Oh come on Japanese people use Latin characters a lot in their daily life... Especially now with the computer/internet era... You don't bloody type https with a Kanji last time I checked.

    I won't even mention all the acronyms they use, again made with Latin alphabet. Could it be in game, at work, etc. Latin characters aren't for Japanese what Kanjis are for westerners. Impossible to compare it this way.

    This has nothing to do with the issue. I'm simply saying if the intention is to "keep it Japanese" then certainly it's less offensive to stick with non-Latin alphabets than qualifying the Latin letters in your text with an oft repeated "JP Only" at the end.
