As soon as I opened the country
I was astonished by the sudden changes
Western clothing and shoes, to the best of my ability!
But I immediately grew accustomed to them

Japan really couldn't understand America, or any of the other countries, for that matter. They were all so strange and, westernized. He did his best to grow used to everyone, and all the changes in his country but sometimes he wished for the old days, when everything was peaceful.
