I blame Robotech for making me a raging Japano=hile from age 5 or so.

You're moving to Yokohama?

@Alan: Nope. I lived there though.

You may be able to help. When I was a kid, I had a book that had black pen drawings of every machine, weapon, robot, and car in the Robotech cartoon. Of course, I lost that book. I could swear that Captain Global/Gloval's car looked like a 1980s Aston Martin Lagonda. Do you remember that? Do you think a manga/comic book store would have the book?

Alan said...

I remember that. 99% sure it was a Lagonda.

What were you doing there? I remember you mentioning that Roads to Sata reminded you of your time there.

@Alan: Born there and left young. Then spent summers of my childhood there.

Cool. Do you speak Nihongo?
