The major earthquake disaster that just happened in Japan shocked me deeply. It is hard to imagine a world without anime, manga, J-pop, Japanese cosmetics, lolita fashion, Jrock, RPG and many more.
As a part of the Japanese culture community, I'm organizing this event for charity to Japan. All the income from the tickets will be donated to Japan.
All the donations we get on our side will be donated directly to the Japanese Red Cross through Google or NicoNico Douga. No donations will be used in our event, we'll compensate all other cost for this event ourselves, so please support!
Please tell your friends about the event and even a prayer will help those suffered from the disaster. Thank you!!

Hello everyone! Yuji Horii, the creator of Dragon Quest was at GameStop in Palo Alto on February 12, 2011. The event started from 1pm-3pm, when I arrived there was already a long line. Everyone in the line got a free slime tee and a Dragon Quest poster.
When we reached the door of GameStop..Mr. Yuji already stopped signing. T^T
But it was a really cool experience to meet and chat with all the gamers in the line.
While waiting, a photographer took my photo and asked me to sign a press release form. Later a friend told me that my photo took that day got on many game news website.
Lucky me!!
You can find a few more photos inside.
