Hello everyone! I'm Grace, but feel free to call me by my username as well. I'm 21 and from Indiana. I'm half-Japanese but was born in the States and don't speak the language (but I can pick up some from context clues) but have been trying to learn on and off for the past few years. I'm a currently working towards a degree in Secondary Social Studies Education.

I first got into Sailor Moon when I was 4 or 5. My grandmother would send over TV-recorded VHS tapes of Sailor Moon episodes/movies from Japan. Though I had no idea what any of the characters were saying, I fell in love with the show immediately. She also sent me various Sailor Moon costumes, toys, etc. Unfortunately, I gave them away years ago and no longer have them. Years later, I read the manga from English-language volumes I borrowed from a friend. Although I haven't kept up with the franchise in recent years, I'm very excited for the re-release of the manga in North America and will definitely be purchasing every volume.

I watch other various anime as well, though I seem to have fallen out of the loop recent. Video games are also another hobby (though I'm bad at them) as well as playing the piano.

I'm not quite sure what else to put on here... so I guess that's it!

Welcome to the forum, my dear! Lovely into. They are always a bit awkward to write, aren't they?

Hope you enjoy your time here! Feel free to look around and PM me if you need to. ^^

I have to say that your grandmother did an awesome thing by sending you all sorts of Sailor Moon stuff.

Welcome aboard!
