For almost two years, until recently, I have been writing a column devoted to Japanese Visual Culture, or otaku culture, or quite plainly anything related to manga or anime (www.comicdom.gr Shinjuku Express column) However, recent events in my life and subsequent psychological stress and depression, have led me to drop my column; it is not I am not interested in the subject anymore but find it increasingly difficult to meet deadlines. Consequently, I opened this blogspace in order to continue writing about this subject, as well as others pertaining to my interests.

Oh... forgot to introduce myself... Well, as is plain on the blog, my pen name is Bakuma-dono, which means "honorable shapechanging bear" in Japanese. I am 24, working as a journalist and soon graduating from the Physics Department of University. I also work as a translator and part-time Physics teacher. My academic interest lies mainly in the History of Sciences but you'll see more of that as the posts come along.

So welcome! Grab a chair, a pillow or sit on the floor and let me tell you a story...
