Japanese history
Japanese studies:

Time spent in Japan:
Kyoto: 2 months in the summer of 2003 on a study abroad program.

Japanese tests passed:
None. Made one attempt at JLPT level 2 a year ago and got a 58%. There are no test sites in my area but I could pass it now, and I'm studying & using Level 1 tests from previous years to get myself to that level.
Manga history
