Courtney Plante, aka “Nuka” is part of the International Anime Project. In short, they study Anime fandom – as part of a larger series of groups that study fandom. Yes, he has grant money to study fandom, so of course I’m going to interview him. Oh, and scientific curiosity and geek citizenship. But also the grant part.
So let’s find out what’s up – and what you can to to help!
Special thanks to Manga Therapy!
Want to get involved in Anime Research? Well there’s an International Anime Research project that’s looking for data. Don’t know too much about them right now, but I asked for an interview, and of course you can go scope it out yourself!

Quartz looks at just how tough it is in Japan. Extremely meticulous, and it doesn’t fit the careers many young people have had in a more erratic economy. Worth reading to see how other people handle CVs.
Makes me wonder how hard it is to get hired as an anime director.
