MegaTokyo
Hey all! My apologies for my lateness.
First of all, I'd like to thank everyone for supporting this blog. It's something that we started on a trial basis, but it's had a huge response. If you'd like to leave your comments or questions, you may do so by leaving a comment on our posts, leaving an online or offline private message with the meebo window on the right side of our blog, or by emailing us at contact (at) fudocom.com. We read and respond to everything we get (which seems to be quite a process lately!).
Recently, I happened along a webcomic made by foreigners for foreigners about a couple of gamers who find themselves stuck in Japan. Though I'm anything but an avid gamer, I find the comic hilarious and insightful with interesting references to life in Japan. Obviously the references may be blown out of proportion and wildly exaggerated, but it's nice to see a somewhat positive look at being in a foreign country.
The comic is called MegaTokyo and was started in August 2000. As any media does, it began a little roughly but evened out over some time. MegaTokyo follows the story of Largo and Piro, two game enthusiasts stuck in Japan with no money or place to stay. To live they have to blend with the locals, so to speak. The comic is updated 3 times a week (it would be nice if we could update our blog that often, don't you think?) and has been made into printed versions. But the creators vow to keep it absolutely free on the net. Whohoo!
To date, there are 1111 installments in the MegaTokyo saga.
Please check it out!
