What's the title of your suggestion?: Style consistency of the map - Make it feel more Japan

What's your suggestion?:
Hello. A very simple suggestion.

You probably love new shopping district, right? It's pretty, it looks Japanese. Or business park. Zen Garden.
Then you go somewhere else, and you start to wonder if it's still Japan. Roads you would never find in Japan, architecture that looks more like British, torii gates being placed randomly. If it wasn't the basic information and the japan flag, no one would know it's Japan.

Business Park after update looks much more Japanese, but there are interiors that are simply empty (For example gym and pool)

So, what would I do?

- Keep the roads realistic for Japan.
- Keep realistic architecture for Japan.
- Slowly start to leave the squre shape of map and start actually making a Japanese looking map.
- Keep all the interiors consistent with its quality.
- Realistic placements of torii gates.
- Update the damn school. The school is the main reason why the map have square shape. It's too big. College part of it is barely used. The small updates in it are not enough, this place is heavily outdated. And honestly, it looks even worse than before in my opinion, for example roof update, SLT offices, new classes, new council room. There are better changes such as floor design, nurse office.
(Keep in mind I am not trying to discredit anyone for their build. I'm a builder myself, not official but still, I know it's hard. But I am pretty sure most of the people would agree with what I just said. Build team is capable of making Fabulous builds, like the one I included in first part of my suggestion. So this is NOT a hate, this is an personal opinion, criticism coming from other builder.)

And yes I know it's easier said than done. I know it would require lots of effort and I'm not sure what projects build team was assigned with. But if you chose to keep the consistency of builds like Shotengai, Business Park, Zen Garden, Shrine Monastery etc, this map would actually look like Japan, not a fusion of Japan and UK/US.

How will this benefit the server and community?:
By following this suggestion, players will be able to immerse themself into actual Japan and enjoy the consistency. After all, why almost no one makes Japanese characters? No one really feels it's Japan. So they make their characters from US or from across the world.

I love the look of Shotengai, we need more of it on the map, i would suggest telling Frenzy as he is the build coordinator!!
