Hello from Japan~

I've been lurking here for a while, but I want to start posting so I figured it was about time to introduce myself!

 

I'm Meru, I'm originally from the UK but I've been living in Japan since 2012. I work as a translator for games, manga, and other fun stuff like that. I was living in Tokyo for a few years and am now in Yokohama, which means I'm lucky enough to be able to go into the local Volks Showroom whenever I feel like it! Although it's actually kind of a bad thing when it comes to my wallet...

 

I currently have a DD Aoi 2 and an Angel Philia Rin (plus 3 resin dollies). My next purchase is going to be Towa from the new standards lineup, and I can't wait to finally get my hands on her. Just gotta wait until payday...!

 

It's nice to meet you all, and I hope I'll be active around here

Hi Meru, I feel a bit sad that we didn't get around to replying to your introduction until now, but I see that hasn't impeded you in your enthusiasm for the forum. I'm assuming you've got your Towa in hand long before the Holiday season commenced. You've probably been busy enjoying Towa in the new outfits you've gifted her. So I'm guessing this was a good Holiday for you. .....and Welcome to the forum where fellow addicts congregate!

Another Japanese translator, yay!

 

Welcome, I hope you can post a lot of pictures of your girls around :3

It seems we're a lot living in Japan, actually

Ahh a fellow translator from the UK too! It's very nice to meet you, it must be so cool getting to visit a Volks showroom locally (*´ω`*)

hi, i'd love to have a couple weeks or more over there for a shopping spree! LOTS of fascinating "hole-in-the-wall" shops all over, tucked away in the last places one might expect!!

Hello and welcome! It must be so hard to resist not to empty your wallet at the store each time you pass. RIP wallet.

Wow, that sounds like an awesome job and interesting experience. Being in Japan will be very useful in this hobby. Welcome!
