Before I start, I want to ask your forgiveness if I did not choose you for the Mirai Suenaga Nendoroid Free Return Ticket to Japan Giveaway.
If I had the cash then I'd pay for all of you to come to Japan but I can only afford 1 return ticket right now.
I'm going to pay for a return ticket to Tokyo (all expenses not paid ^^;) to a FatB astard who posted the above photo to Twitter. Congrats! I'm going to contact you on the email address that you used when you registered for an account here. You need to forward evidence that you pre-ordered Mirai before the 18th of September 2012 and if you cant then the ticket goes to somebody else ^^;
Then we will discuss when you would like to come over and how I should pay you etc.
To the rest who didn't win - thank you for supporting Mirai and I hope to make it up to you some other way ><
Some companies use their marketing money on banner ads or user acquisitions but I'll make sure I'll put some cash aside for more free tickets to Japan in the future - after all this does work out as marketing - I'd just rather a reader gain a ticket to Japan at the same time ^o^
I do hope that Mirai has become your talisman to egg you on while studying Japanese - she is always with me and hope she will always be with you too.
