Me too, and also for two years. 1991-93, if you can imagine that. I think the JET Program was less than 5 years old when I got in. Before "JET" there was a thing called the Monbusho Fellowship, which was for tenured professors from the US, Canada, UK, etc to spend a year in Japan on sabbatical. Someone figured out that wasn't the kids any good, and we got JET.

It was tough in the early 90's. No internet. No outside world. I was in a very rural town in Hiroshima Pref. for the first year, then transferred to Hiroshima City for the second year. I worked junior high. You?

(Sorry for the OT, mods. Pls indulge one more reply.)
Hey we missed each other by a few good years lol I was 1998-1999 in Honsu and like yourself it was at Junior high. I only did it for a year then travelled through the rest of Japan for a year doing various jobs for money. And also met my future wife in that second year.

Every Taiko no Tatsujin series... Especially for Wii U! and ATD.
Rune Factory (Well, I had to import it from Japan several times because it's so "null" here that nobody even knows about it here)

    Today I learned that the creators of the Donkey Kong games also made Sea of Thieves
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    why do i feel the sudden urge to start singing pirate's scorn from the donkey kong country cartoon?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Are you being for real, cause that's hard to believe, DK is Nintendo and made in japan, Sea of thieves was from Microsoft, in America. I'm not calling you a liar, just didn't know.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Ok yes they were both made by Rare, but DK was from Rare back then, Rare now is owned by MS. So makes since.
