Hey everyone. Over the coming months, I\u2019ll be republishing every single story I wrote for <\/span>Anime Now!<\/span><\/i> here on biggestinjapan.com. Now I say \u201cover the coming months\u201d because I wrote a lot for anime now–like three articles minimum per week for a year-and-a-half. And as I\u2019m having to upload and reformat each manually\u2026 well, yeah. It\u2019s going to take some time to get it all ready to go.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here is the second batch containing all the articles during <\/span>Anime Now!<\/span><\/i>\u2019s first third month online. Most are features or analytical articles, but there are some news articles and the like scattered in as well. I have put in bold the articles I think are the most interesting, so I hope you all enjoy!<\/span><\/p>\n
