Why is Jay Japan created?
Before Jay Japan was created, there was a young man that was super passionate about Japanese culture and anime. Anime was his first love when he was a small child starting with Naruto, it grew into loving Japanese culture when he became a teenager, and it fully blossomed when he traveled from Baton Rouge to Yokohama, Japan as an adult.
However, in his hometown of Baton Rouge, Louisiana (home to American Football and Louisiana gumbo), the city doesn't have a lot of exposure and their own originiality of Japanese culture and anime.
So Jay Japan was created for the mix of Japanese culture (sushi, anime, and kimonos) and Louisiana culture (gumbo, zydeco, and Louisiana jazz).
