This is a shot in the dark but I've recently relocated to Japan for work and I was wondering if there were any RPPR fans in the country. There is a convention and we could do a satellite meetup or whathave you. Anyways..

Sorry I can't help you, but have you heard of the podcast Idle Red Hands (http://www.idleredhands.com/)? They're (Western) gamers living in Japan.

I know there's at least one other RPPR listener in Japan and I've talked to the Idle Red Hands people a few times.

There are also some listeners in China and I got to run a game of CoC for them: http://actualplay.roleplayingpublicradio.com/2014/03/systems/call-of-cthulhu/call-of-cthulhu-july-park/ (http://actualplay.roleplayingpublicradio.com/2014/03/systems/call-of-cthulhu/call-of-cthulhu-july-park/)

Shallazar -

Ross pointed me at your post. Welcome to Japan! I'm in Shizuoka City (about an hour from Tokyo on the bullet train). Where have you moved to? Yes - it would be great to meet up at some point. The Tokyo Game Market is a good place to play games, and there are lots of game stores in the Akihabara to get a table. There are a couple other roleplayers in Shizuoka and at my school. So, we could definitely get something happening. I'll PM you as well. Hope all's going well with the move -
