asian-invasion

Welcome.

You are about to embark on a journey of sorts. If you’ve never heard of anime or have wondered what people are referring to when speaking of “J-rock” or “J-pop,” here is where you will find the answers you seek. You’ll find out about Pocky, Pucca, and Polysics. You’ll get the scoop on which major Eastern film would be the latest consumed and Americanized by Hollywood (remember the Ring?). You’ll even be pointed toward items born of Asian intuition and imagination, most of which are surprisingly affordable.

Along the way, I will be bringing news and images from the anime / Asian culture conventions I attend. Before you know it, “cosplay” will replace your idea of “dressing up” and “otaku” may become the new “fan geek.”

We’re going to have fun and perhaps you may learn some new things. Please fasten your seat belts and relax. Enjoy the ride.
