Its a long read but its really great, and it puts things into perspective.

Some people I knew assumed he came from a well off background :P

I’m interested.

Somewhat related question: do Koichi and Danny Choo know/met each other? I mean, both are quite important internet figures in making the Japanese culture and sub-cultures more known to the world~

Its funny to see how similar his methods were to AJATT, but really, its just obsession, the best tool for learning.

I didn’t read everything but he sure is a dedicated hard worker. It looks like all his hard work is starting to pay off. We all could benefit from reading his biography.

I’m looking forward to his future posts.
