I love Japanese food. So many yummy things you can't get here in the U.S.A.
You should write about it or send me some food lol Have a great day.
 

You can never have enough information on Jrock and all the awesome bands that are out there. How about BJD's as well?
 

Teresa-
Please message me, I'd like to talk with you about your music.

Just a quick suggestion: Why not do something along the lines of how a tiny community, Little Tokyo or something like that, has impacted an entire city filled with different cultures. Look at how the communities took the acceptance of the Japanese people and whether or not they are meshing with each other.

I, for one, love the Japanese culture, but I feel left out since I am only a crazed Latino in the midst of a large, Japanese-based part of town. Why that is so I won't know until I learn the language a lot more.

Thanks for bringing this up!
 

I second the suggestion to feature more on the balljointed dolls, as well as more articles on Japanese food. The article on "Crystal Noodles" helped me out the last time I went to Little Tokyo to do some grocery shopping:)
 

I'd like to see some more on the art of cosplay, personally. I have seen some wonderful cosplay from many different people and don't think they get the recognition they deserve sometimes.

Also, how about something like an indies/little-known music section? Japanese music is such a huge part of my life now (in more ways than one) and there are so few English publications that cover it. I saw in the last issue there was Luna Sea, Koda Kumi, DuelJewel, etc., but those are pretty well-known names over here. Anyone can go to JRR or JaME or some other site and get the latest info on them, whereas if they're into more underground or lesser-known artists they have a very difficult time finding much of anything.

Thank you for letting us have some input in the next issue! It's very good to see when publications like this
 

I know I'm late to the party here but how bout giving ideas on where and when people like me can find cool stuff here in the states. I live in SC and while I've met some fellow Otaku and the like, we have to travel to conventions if we want the good stuff. the one's here and in nearby states aren't that large.
as far as the music, most of the good bands don't come any farther than Texas. and you NEVER see J-rock cd's in local stores. with the exception of this Dir en Grey cd that a local Best Buy got like 6 copies of (I was the second person to buy one).
and fashion? fat chance finding it here. I have to get stuff online or bribe people who are traveling. just a thought; I've no idea when it comes to the execution.
 

Ummm i think Hyde would be a good thing... Anything and everything Hyde.. More and more Hyde hehehe in every issue something about hyde I LOVE HYDE!!! ^_^ He is always a good subject with tons and tons of international fans. And Nami Tamaki they both have great style to me. Is there some way to get lots of japanese and harajuku fashions imported by mail internationally? I cant always get to Japan all the time ^_~ Does the magazine offer mail orders? If not it would be a good thing.

Peace,
Akane

More JROCK in general-interviews, maybe new indie band info and band info in general ^-^
 

how about japanese table manners?
or just random japanese etiquette hand gestures you'd see in anime or manga etc
or random fashion articles
 

I would like to see in one of your issues a travel guide of sites, store, places to eat etc. in Japan that you are not going to find in tour guides or with a tour.
I like going to places off them main path of tourist. The little family owned places where the locals go. You really do not get a taste of the place until you go these places.
 

need volunteer? if so, let us know!
 

Well, you guys should definitely go into detail of shops that are in harajuku and all over Tokyo. One place that i would love to see would be Takuya Angel shop. Also, do not forget to shed some light on Japanese websites that Americans can go to, just in case they want to buy stuff. Examples, shanalogice.com, cdjapan.co.jp. Also, give out the names of band websites so that we don't have to go on a man hunt to find them. Definitely show pretty jrock pictures and don't forget the fruits
 

If you still taking suggestions: How bout VAMPS (HYDE -L'Arc en Ciel,KAZ -Oblivian Dust) Who just finish their USA tour. LOVE HYDE!
