Introduction

おはよう、

はじめまして。ハイディです。どうぞよろしくおねがいします。

I'm studying Japanese because I've spent more than a decade exposed to bits of culture in the context of video games and anime. I'm finally at a point where curiosity and opportunity intersected, so I'm making an effort to learn the language!
As an enthusiast of world mythology, I dream of being able to travel to Japan and learning more about the local practices; particularly the kami of Shinto faith. Beyond this, having only a taste of culture from games and anime has left a large gap in my cultural knowledge of Japan, and I am anxious to learn more to fill it!

Persona 5 was only the latest game that gave me a just a taste of the culture.

Later!
じゃあ、また。

    As a fellow videogame lover, I've heard so much about Persona 5, but don't have a system to play it on. Not being too familiar with the Persona series in general, I'm interested that it gives insight into Japanese culture. I'll definitely have to check it out. I'd be curious to know what other games you enjoy sometime!
