About Finley Ullom
Based in Scotland, Finn has been writing about Japanese pop culture for nine years now. He is also a gamer, hiker, and proud vegan. His passion is bringing news straight from Japan to you, in English, keeping the otaku world accessible for everyone. He lives with his partner and two rescued street cats, Nezuko and Chachamaru. Finn lived in Japan for 12 years, three in a small city and nine in downtown Tokyo. He writes part-time for TheBestWarGames, mostly anime-related news stories covering events, products, premiers, cafes, and more in Japan, and works full time at a university. When he's not working, Finn is playing PlayStation 5, working on his sci-fi novel at a cafe, or planning his next backpacking trip. He also loves bouldering, and getting new tattoos.
