If you like creating animes or mangas, this is an ideal chance for you to showcase your arts to the public. Unfortunately, they did not provide any English information even if they are also looking for works from abroad. You need to fill out the application form and then send it, but it's only available in Japanese...

Hi Kai,
返信削除My name is Billy Martyn. I follow your blog and wanted to introduce myself.
My brother and I recently launched a free language learning site with the goal of offering English and Japanese language learners a new way to practice with each other.
Our site (abcloop.com) focuses on the “social” aspect of learning, with tools that allow conversations to be translated and checked by everyone who uses it. Conversations, for example in the Travel Loop and the Fashion Loop, often start in one language and continue in both English and Japanese.
It is great that you translate news articles and blog in English and hope more people will be inspired to do the same as we think practicing is the best way to learn.
We think many of our users would be interested in your blog and vice versa, and hope we can meet up and chat over coffee sometime.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Best regards,
Billy
