I am completely stealing the name of the group from the now defunct gaijin bar that used to be near Chiba station when I moved here in 2001. We'll hop around from place to place, so suggestions are welcome. Gaijin, Japanese, single, married, all are invited. Eat, drink, and speak easy!

You've moved to the holy land of anime, manga and games, but maybe you're like me with only limited Japanese skills. Wouldn't it be nice to sit around and talk about the latest anime, upcoming conventions and games in English? I believe that there are other English speaking anime fans out there looking for a chance to socialize and share information about the latest shows, events and merchandise. Folks visiting Tokyo are also welcome. I figure this is a good way to share information about wh …
