Hello! I’m Jay, and I finally worked up the courage to post. XD

I’m from California, USA (the part with the surfers), and I’m a digital artist and [non-professional] musician. My main passion is animation, which has been an ambition of mine since I knew how to walk. I’ve had a love for Japan since I was little and always feel my creative endeavors drawing me closer and closer to the culture. I’m almost certain that I’ll end up joining and/or running an animation/video game company in Japan, somewhere down the line.

I’m also interested in creepy Japanese folklore and urban legends–stuff like Kuchisake-onna and The Red Room. I’d love to do more research on their folklore, but Nihongo no good speak. Which is one reason why I’m here, of course.

I tried learning Japanese on my own for a while, but I didn’t get that far. I only learned hiragana, katakana, and some other basic stuff. When I heard about TextFugu, I knew I’d love it. And I did! So here I am, amd I am here.

宜しくお願いします！
