A lot of fans would like to help the Japanese people recover from the recent disaster, but they want to be sure the donations will go to those who need it. We would like to recommend you donate through the Japan Society. The Japan Society has been promoting U.S.-Japanese understanding and friendship since 1905, and we're proud to know it through Dana Lewis, who is not only the president of the Japan Society of Northern California, but also the longtime translator of Dark Horse's Oh My Goddess! and Blade of the Immortal.

Please donate today, and thank you.
