  ぼくの しゅみは すうぽつ。さっかあと バスケットボールと エフワンが だいすき です。 I grew up playing all kinds of sports. Now as an adult, I watch even more kinds of sports. There is something I find particularly intriguing about how we all pick a player or team, promise to root for them forver, and spend all our lives watching them compete and wishing them success. I also enjoy watching other teams I don't like failing. For this blog post, I chose 3 sports that I am currently obsessed with right now.

Anime and manga are huge reasons why young people are interested in Japanese culture. I look forward to exploring Japanese culture even more
