In our first episode for 2022, we’re taking you back to Japan again - this time with Luca (Mangluca)! Luca is a rabbit from Japan. He’s been in the fandom since 2006 and works as a staff member for JMoF who works in public relations and translation. We’re excited to finally be interviewing our very first Japanese fur on the show so let’s give Luca, a big awoo!
