Hello!

[bitayamoka]

I was absorbed in only doing post in Clan Art and forgot that I did the post here -_-;

Nice to meet you! I am bitayamoka. I'm a Japanese living in Japan.

I am interested in culture of some Native Americans and Ainu. In addition, I am completely charmed in the world of CoAD because I loved a wolf since the days of a child.

I do not like so-called "fantasy" very much, but love CoAD because it is the world that is near in a myth and tradition of a food-gatherer than it says with fantasy for me.(In Japan people generally evaluate the story as fantasy that magic and a creature (for example, dragons) of imagination appear.)

In Japan, a children's book about a real food-gatherer like CoAD is very rare.
And unfortunately a book of such contents (boy and girl kill animals, and to dismantle) is not always an acceptable thing to many people in my country.
So, I think that I want slightly many Japanese to read this book, and I introduce splendor of this book by my way in my site.

It is difficult for me to talk with all of you if I do not depend on translation software and a dictionary because I am weak in English. But I'm glad when you still welcome me^_^

Hello. Welcome to the clan. Your english is very good and your artwork is really excellent!! I love it so much. I would love to visit Japan in the future as well as Canada and many other places. It would be cool!

I love fantasy books, COAD is one of my favourites although there are many others i love too. Garth Nix and Clive Barker are also very good writers as well as J.K.Rowling and Marcus Sedgwick. Try them out.

[bitayamoka]

Thank you for replies, everybody! It is one of my pleasure here that is mentioned the English that lived.
I am glad to some people interested in Japan.Please visit Japan by all means!
Please ask me about anything of Japan (for example, culture or history)!
I think that I am the one that knows otaku culture (like manga or anime).

[bitayamoka]

I do not understand the way how I take a private message here.
If there is the person who sends a private message to me, give me an email from my site!
(Is it going off topic this thread?)

[Phantom Wolf]

The private messaging system has been down for a while now, I've no idea why...

[Lynx!]

Welcome to the clan bitayamoka, I wish you have a splendid time here;you're english is very good. I wish to visit Japan some day, maybe on a schoolarship, or something else. That is one of my merits in life, visit Japan :thumb: !!! I love your work -and I'm a bit jelous of it, to:heh: -, couldn't you give some short, really short tips of how to draw like that?
I LOVE AND GO CRAZY FOR DRAGONS. I really love them :dance: , it's a shame they caused so much truble in here. (Jm... it remembers me of Spirited Away).
Thanks, and again...
¡¡¡WELCOME!!!

[tokorothslayer]

welcome! i hope you have an excellent time here as we all do! we are friendly and if you want to know anything, dont hesitate to ask! welcome!

[bitayamoka]

I thank for kindness of all of you! If there is some question, I ask all of you!

To Guephrën: When I went to school, the results of my art were very bad. In addition, I do not have that I took education to draw a picture at all. From that kind of reason, my skill is not enough.
If you think that my arts appeal to you, I think that it is because I draw a really favorite thing!
And will not it and I be because I am very older than you? ^^;

[Bridie]

HI!!! I've just realized that I havent posted to say hello!!! So HI!!!! I love your Art, we get to do gothic anime when I'm in year 10!!! YAY! What part of Japan are you from? (am I allowed to ask?)

[fox]

uch gothis anime (vomits) welcome tho bitamoyaka! GAMBATTE

[Phantom Wolf]

Grrrr I'm so jealous, gothic or not you still get to do anime in school! I don't think many people in my school have even heard of manga, we're still busy drawing rubbish like pieces of fruit...:tsk:

Anyways, have fun on the Clan! And don't say that your skill isn't enough, because that is very untrue...

[bitayamoka]

To Bridie: Is it a meaning whether I live in Japanese where? If it is it, I live in Kamakura. I live in this town ever since I was born.
Kamakura is the town where there was the government of the times when a samurai held real power for the first time in the twelfth century.
Because there are a lot of temple and Shinto shrines, there are many tourists from foreign countries. (There are not most at the opportunity when I talk with the people)
There is there by a train from Tokyo to around 1 hour.
Kamakura is small but cozy and is quiet when compare it with the town like Kyoto and Nara which prospered of court noble culture, but I love such point of this town!
By the way, what kind of thing is Gothic animation?

To fox: Thanks! GAMBARIMASU!!!

To Phantom Wolf: Thank you! But please do not flatter me very much because I am conceited^^;
