Sorry, I don’t have much to post today due to a lack of time, but I did see something today that was pretty special, at least to me.   I know most of you have probably seen this pictures from multiple sources already, but I thought I’d put my limited photography skills to the test and [...]

Sorry, I haven’t been posting recently, but I’ve been super busy finishing up the work that was left to me after Obon.  I do have yet another post about travel .  This time it’s the Isumi Konata house in Satte, Saitama.  It’s a recently opened “tourist attraction” where the district is attempting to draw anime [...]

For those who don’t know, Comiket takes place twice every year and is the largest anime/manga related expo in the world.  It’s set up like a market place where booths sell large amounts of goods, commerical and indie ones.  It takes place at the Tokyo Big Sight in Odaiba, Tokyo from 10AM-4PM on for three [...]

I just got back from the first day of Comiket 76, and I’m absolutely exhausted.   I’ll write a few things about that later, but for now just a short update and time for some much needed rest. Today’s dinner was a rather interestingly made yakisoba.  I had this at the Odaiba Aquamall food court.  Yakisoba [...]

As the title says, I’m heading to Tokyo for a few days to meet up with Yukito and Rin from koiaichaku.com. Hopefully I’ll be able to post while I’m there. In the mean time, I’m getting ready for massive delays because the earthquake in Shizuoka destroyed a number of highways and caused landslides in areas [...]

Heya everyone, In an effort to post more often, I’m going to make a post about what I did today .  I attended a live concert starring May’n (メイン） or May Nakabayashi at Zepp Nagoya.  I don’t think I’ve ever mentioned having tickets for this concert on my blog, mainly because I forgot I had [...]

To my friends who want more Japan stuff, I haven’t posted anything anime related recently, so let me post one!!!! In any case, one of my recommends and subsequent favorites for the Summer 2009 anime season is Bakemongatari.  In particular, I was entranced by the ending.  Composed by esteemed vocaloid composer, Ryo/Supercell, and sung by [...]

Heya,  I seem to be averaging one post every 4 days or so, which is pretty terrible.  Nonetheless, I’m very grateful for all 3o or so of you who read my blog . Today’s post is about Hinamizawa Shirakawa Village, which is located in the northern corner of Gifu prefecture and about 250 kilometers away [...]

Heya, it’s been a while since I posted, but I’ve been super busy with all sorts of random things.  Not the least of which was finishing off summative assignments for two different PDENG courses.  Ugh… the horror that is PDENG.  Anyway today I’m going to talk about a Gundam Expo that was held in Port [...]
