    I’ve been lurking for ages but felt compelled to post recently, so here I am. I’m one of the very few fans of OUaT in Japan and have been campaigning for it to be brought here… but to no avail. AXN, Fox… None of the channels care to pick it up. I occasionally scour the internet and post Japanese OUaT articles via the OUATJapan Twitter and Facebook accounts.

    Privately, I’m a crazy Rumbelle shipper, but try to remain impartial and objective when I post. Anything else you’d like to know, feel free to ask me.

    Hello! I lived in Japan for a couple of years, in Nagasaki. Nice to meet you!

    Welcome to the boards… looking forward to your posts. Always love theories, ideas from others.

    When and how do you get to watch the show? Internet? Hulu? ABC?

    Hey everyone! Thanks for the warm welcome!

    Keb, I’m quite envious that you lived in Nagasaki because I have never been there. It’s very far from where I live in central Honshu, near Nagoya.

    Nonnie, My husband thinks I’m crazy in my ritual of checking websites and watching:-P When the show airs in the States on Sunday night, I am at work on Monday morning. All morning, I wait impatiently for 10-11am, which is when celebritydirtylaundry.com posts their live recap. Of course, knowing what happens still doesn’t ruin it for me, and after work, I rush home, make dinner, get stuff ready for the next day, and then watch the episode on Hulu with my husband. I have to use a VPN server because American Hulu is blocked here (Japanese Hulu doesn’t have the same shows and isn’t very good).

    I originally got hooked on the show from Netflix, but they only have season 1. To get my OUaT fix, I tried watching via the ABC site. The lag was so bad, I was going crazy until I found that Hulu posts the episodes at about the same time and has a much better system of streaming.

    Welcome to the forums! 😀

    Love that it’s getting more global. Makes me curious, how the show is perceived in other countries.

    And too bad, that no channel yet has picked up the show. Unbelievable they don’t notice what a great show it is. Crossing fingers one will.
    Living in different time zone can be a pain. Enjoy at the moment the luxury to be not bound to normal 9-5h office working days, so can be more in temporal sync with my passion. 😉

    Looking forward to read your thoughts and ideas about the show.

    ¯\_(?????? ?)_/¯
