Some recent email correspondence netted me an interesting new find in the multicultural Japan online space. Dirk Schwieger, a German comic artist living in Japan, has been combining exploration of Japan with his art. He takes assignments from readers of things to do and explore and write about. So far these have included depictions of everyday life in Japan, pedestrian tourist travels such as Ghibli and Hara art museums, more adventurous forays to a love hotel and dancing the para para, as well harrowing accounts of natto and embarrassing enounters with a bidet in a workplace washroom. I highly recommend a browse through Dirk's site for an often humorous and always artfully rendered glimpse into Tokyo life. [link]
