Congratulations to to the new affiliate. I have seen a lot of Japanese wikimedians being active on wikimedia platforms, specially in the governance landscape in recent days. The new affiliate will hopefully mobilize these activities.  

I was sharing this news with some of my team members last night and l came to know that there are a lot of "Otaku"s in my Wikimedia team who can't wait to get in touch and do collaborations with you. 😛

See you in the wikimediaverse!

Hugs,

Rafi
