Something About YoU

I am the founder and admin of TheAkiba. YoU is my screen name, speak it in Japanese and you may find the meaning. So far I can speak three different languages, Chinese, Japanese and English.

Apart from the daily routines of being a graduate student in NYC, I do like enjoying my life of being a foreigner here. I’ve created many websites with varying content, but none has lasted except for TheAkiba. At first I created TheAkiba only to share the common interests of discussing Anime topics, but now it has evolved into an Anime blog website.

For more information about me, feel free to read the About page. If you want to drop me a message, feel free to contact me. Also, you can follow me on Twitter, Facebook and Google+.
