Winter continues, as we approach the longest night of the year. Aren’t you glad that we are operating on an earlier hour?
JAFWA continues to warm your soul with the cultural goodness that is anime.

This week we farewell three regular series (but season 2 of “Golden Kamuy” starts next month), and we will be adding new regular series in the weeks to come. But this week we will have a preview episode of a different anime from Japan – one where love shall transcend worlds, but dares not show openly.
