My New York Times Magazine story about guys who are in love with anime characters is online. The main protagonist is Nisan, a thirty-something year old man who has a body pillow girlfriend named Nemutan. This is a photo I took of Nisan and Nemutan during our interview, at his favorite salad bar in Hachioji. Read it here, or buy the print version of the NYT Magazine this coming Sunday to read it on paper.

Listed below are links to weblogs that reference My NYT Magazine article on 2D Love is online!:
In 2008, Chronicle published my book: Urawaza: Secret Everyday Tips and Tricks from Japan.
I am also the founder of The Tofu Project, a boutique program that helps Japanese entrepreneurs and creators think deeper, tell better stories, and go out into the world in a much bigger way. We work with companies like Mixi, Japan Airlines, and Salesforce.com.
Sometimes I try to explain Japanese culture on CNN, BBC, CBC, WSJ, ABC (so many acronyms!) or in person at places like the Foreign Correspondents' Club of Japan, ETech, and Ignite!
