“

Legend has it, a few hundred kilometers over the Thunder Mountains, there is a place known as the Land of the Rising Sun. Some say it's the location of a top secret headquarters, some say it's the secret homeland of the elusive samur-eye demoman. All we know is that they have pretty landscapes and even prettier architecture, so we contracted Mann Co. to ship some of Nippon back here, for you to use in your custom team fortress 2 maps and/or SFM videos!. — Japan Content Pack publicity blurb
