Matt Alt From Astro Boy to Gundam to real-world robots like ASIMO and Pepper, Japan’s fascination with robots runs deep. This week, the Krewe is joined by author, cultural commentator, & robot enthusiast Matt Alt to explore how robots became heroes instead of threats in Japanese pop culture and how those sci-fi dreams quietly shaped Japan’s modern relationship with technology, AI, and everyday automation. From giant mecha and cyborg icons to robot cafés and beyond, we dig into why Japan seems so comfortable living alongside machines in an episode that’s equal parts nostalgia, culture, and future tech.

This week, the Krewe is joined by author, cultural commentator, & robot enthusiast Matt Alt to explore how robots became heroes instead of threats in Japanese pop culture and how those sci-fi dreams quietly shaped Japan’s modern relationship with technology, AI, and everyday automation. From giant mecha and cyborg icons to robot cafés and beyond, we dig into why Japan seems so comfortable living alongside machines in an episode that’s equal parts nostalgia, culture, and future tech.

Course in Japanese Politics ft. Tobias Harris of Japan Foresight Japan’s political scene is changing—from new parties rising in visibility to historic moments in national leadership—so the Krewe is bringing you a timely crash course. Political analyst Tobias Harris (Founder & Principal of Japan Foresight) joins the pod to break down the foundations of Japan’s government system, how it compares to the U.S., and why voters view politics the way they do. We explore the major and emerging parties shaping the landscape, the issues driving debate today, and how international pressures and global events influence domestic policy. Tobias also sheds light on the media’s role in shaping public perception and political accountability.

Fukushima, as a prefectural community, has demonstrated incredible resiliency in its recovery efforts, but unfortunately there still is a residual stigma attached to the prefecture.  One way that Fukushima has been combating that reputation is through some creative initiatives involving education through first-hand experiences. Today, the Krewe sits down with William McMichael, an integral figure in these projects, to discuss how Fukushima University's Fukushima Ambassadors Program & Hope Tourism have helped introduce the world to Fukushima in a different way.

Dr. James Heisig One of the biggest obstacles for Japanese language learners is trying to learn and master the written alphabets, specifically kanji. So many common questions come with learning kanji… What’s the right reading? Am I using the correct character? What does this kanji even mean? Well, in today’s episode, the Krewe sits down with Dr. James Heisig, author of the Remembering the Kanji book series, to discuss the series' origin story, how this method works, understanding the anatomy of kanji characters, and so much more. Hear it directly from the source right here on Krewe of Japan Podcast!

Jenn & Doug took about a year getting this special guest onto the podcast, and they're thrilled to finally welcome Norm Nakamura of the YouTube channel Tokyo Lens to share his passion and love of shamisen with the world. Norm’s fascination for the shamisen went beyond admiring the sound, as he actually learned the instrument thanks to many people, like the Yoshida Brothers, who helped grow his skills and interest. Norm shares his journey of learning the shamisen and gives the listener a glimpse at how special and unique of an instrument it is. This podcast episode was well-worth the wait... enjoy!

With guest host Andre deLaneuville, the Krewe explores the musical genre that has had a renaissance over the last decade (even more so within the last 4-5 years). After talking through individual experiences with this feel good style of music, Andre & Doug dive into a conversation with former city pop idol & woman of many talents, Yu Hayami, to discuss what city pop means to her, as well as her music career that began during peak city pop era. From music industry behind-the-scenes tales to conversations about cultural identity & details about her upcoming 40th anniversary album release... we got it all (and more!) right here on this episode of Krewe of Japan Podcast!
