Introduction

I sub Japanese-language series and specials, with a particular emphasis on less popular programs (such as specials on war-period history) or ones which I find of particular educational benefit for myself or viewers. Hopefully there are at least a few of you who will enjoy and appreciate my work.

Current Projects

On hiatus until further notice.
