Hey Naruto (or ShadowyOne)
On the Anime Sub-Board, forum, whatever. It says 'nippon'.. Shouldn't it be Nihon?

It can be either, but the official name of Japan (shown on maps and globes) is Nippon.
Nippon (Official Name/Formal)
Nihon (Japan, Less Formal)
Other example:
Nipponjin (Japanese person, Official/Formal)
Nihonjin (Japanese person, Less Formal)
