Etsuko Tabuchi was born in Japan and moved to Germany in 2009. She is a fluent German speaker.

Florian Weitschies is German, but did Japanese Studies at university.

Both live in Germany with regular visits to Japan.

As a Japanese/German team, we can read and view the original and the translation from inside and outside perspectives. Nothing gets lost. We read between the lines and beyond the pictures and offer our readers an experience close to a native speaker's.

We specialise in Manga and Pop culture.
