It's important to remember that while Hawaii is rather far from the mainland of the United States, it's a fair bit closer to Japan than the rest of the country. As such, it has a pretty active anime fandom! I got the chance to spend some time with Jason Yadao, author of the Cel-Shaded anime column in the Honolulu Star-Bulletin (yes, the main Honolulu paper has its own weekly anime column. I TOLD you!)
Enjoy!

As for me, I've gotten into the habit of always turning on closed captions if I can! ^^;
Hawaii celebrates Golden Week too? That would be neat to go while it happens.
I remember going on a tour before and how the tourist guide even said that Hawaii's known to really rely on tourism... well I hope they get back on their feet over there.
