Wow! It's fun to read about these types of theories. Samurai left behind many myths, interesting customs, rumours, and stories. I've heard that swords shouldn't bump into each other when Samurai walk, but I've never heard about driving! It was enjoyable to read.
British culture predates American culture in Japan but after World War II, almost everything changed to the American style, except for some European and British cultures which were already in Japan. Japan is truly a mixed culture. I always think the Taisho era was very modern.

I like the fashion of the Taisho era. The モボ and モガ styles, the mixture of old and new. It's very exciting. I enjoy looking at old Taisho photos. Early Showa style is interesting too. The middle age men wearing kimono, but also a fedora hat, western glasses and mustache. It's such an interesting contrast.
