My Hero Academia Itasha Car

6 min read

In the last couple of months across the United States and throughout the many pages of the Internet, a little black My Hero Academia car has been making appearances more frequently and has become quite recognizable. I have always wanted to create an anime car of my own but spent several years just brainstorming the idea. For those of you unknown with the term "itasha", it pretty much translates to "painful car", which is quite accurate considering how much of a pain it costs or how cringeworthy it can be to the general public. With that said, I have spent many years trying to research a good character, series, and theme to go with the design that I wanted for a vehicle, but for some reason, I was never able to bond with any concept I went for.

It was a blast and I enjoyed every moment of it. After that, I hit the big 50 at Anime Central in Rosemont, Illinois. Following Acen, I traveled to A-Kon in Dallas, Texas,

New nationality and new identity

0 min read

This past Wednesday, March 13th, I was summoned to the United States District Courthouse. I was not summoned for a trial or because I had done some crime. I was asked to attend my naturalization ceremony. At the event I was naturalized as an American citizen but I was also granted a legal name change. While it took a while to accept the fact, the reality it still kicking in and it will be a while before I am fully aware of the new me. I will be attending Sakuracon in Seattle, Washington with a new name and while most people may not believe me that my name is different, I have the legal proof now. With that said, thanks to everyone that supp
