Sugoi!!

And the Ambassador can’t make it but his second, Abe-san, will be coming, as will the head of the visa section.? Sorry, he wanted to come and helped A LOT to
get Consulate support. No one else from the Consulate will be allowed in for free…
?
We’re going to set aside 10 VIP tickets?? So that leaves 8 others?

A major JAA donor, Murase-san, is kindly donating to our event (and not attending).

?
As of 2:18PM today, we're at 24 tickets and $1800.
