[Tsuwabuki]

You know, I hear what Sangetsu says a lot. And frankly, I just don't agree. While I'll never be Japanese, ethnically, I already am very much acclimated to life in Japan. I will never stop being me, but a tourist or spectator only? Puh-leeze. I'm a very active participant. Japan is my home.

America was like a parallel universe, or a house of mirrors. Things were recognisable, but still very much wrong. Fun place to visit to see my friends and family, and partake of some activities or food I miss from my younger days, but I wouldn't want to live there.
