Was thinking more along the lines of "Seicho Matsumoto Kemono michi" because the DVD's are already available, but that's still some time in the future and also assuming I wish to continue producing subtitles.

I've got a suggestion: Sonagi.

And it's a mere 1-1/2 hour movie. :)

No need to send the magazine... Just e-mail the scan. :)

Or maybe we'll run into each other at the Nisei Week Festival... Are you going? Looks like some of the guys here are gonna be there...

Maybe some of the girls in the SoCal area like MissyMon will be there as well... :)

not sure if i am heading to Nisei week...already made the drive out to LA earlier this month...
but i usually like to head to Gardena/Torrance once or twice a month, Mitsuwa/Asahiya....so we'll probably meet up there for lunch, and i can bring it then....i'll hold onto the ryoko mag for you....
meanwhile, i'll try to get the scans up sometime.

What about this: we meet up on one of those weekends and we'll both go to Little Tokyo... I'll drive.

Just an idea.

cool, thx
sounds like an idea, let's play it by ear, and perhaps sometime in August, since i will probably be up in your area again soon. gotta visit my usual spots.....mitsuwa, Marukai Pacific, Sakuraya... :bonk:

I'm amazed that Sakuraya is still open... I looks so beat up on the outside.

I'm still disappointed that they closed the Ishigo Bakery... Their cakes are superior to those at Kings Hawaiian.

ishigo bakery....where was it near? i am not too familiar with Western...etc.....but i am getting use to it more...

Sakuraya, that place looks old...but their mochi is one of the best i've had...i usually get enough to bring back(maybe half a dozen)...

also, ever had Super Udon, the place looks like it was some other burger joint converted to Udon...their udon was good, had it a few weeks ago..

anyhow, back to Ryoko...i'll try to scan up the pix/cover this week...the scans are so so...not the best since my DPI is ....i think 150 DPI...damn scanner :doh:

Western and 162nd Street, maybe a block or two from Sakuraya.

Never heard of the place... I don't venture out to Gardena as much, since I don't live there anymore... Marukai's a really good store, but the parking blows.

That's okay. I normally scan at 150dpi for page-sized pics... Scanning higher than that is a waste for what I used the images for... :)
