I found out about Kisu (鱚 / Japanese whiting) back in 1995 and then created a little logo with an X on top of a U to sort of look like a fish swimming down. I used it on my T-shirts for a bit, and then let it lie. When I started this website I remembered it and thought that I could do a page with all things that I do with a Japanese influence. So my favorite cartoon character as a child 6, 7 year old was Kimba, then Marine Boy, then Astro Boy, then Daffy Duck. At the time I didn’t realize that the ABC television station was getting most of it’s animation from Japan because it was cheaper, I thought it was because it was better, and Aunty cared for us. anyway I have had a life long love of Japanese culture, and part of that is the culture of quality.
