Fuji Daily is a publication for you seekers of esoteric knowledge about Japan that goes beyond anime, games, JPop and cute girls. Those are all great, but there’s so much more to Japan than the entertainment.
We strive to be your primary source for quality information about Japan regardless of your level of interest in the news or your desire to visit Japan. In order to do so, we consult with people working in the fields we’re covering through interviews (often with interpreters) or by taking them on as contributors if they’re willing to work with us.

Note: Due to a handful of our contributors being public figures, content creators or work at restrictive companies, we agreed to protect their individual privacy needs by using only their first names or an online alias that they’re best known under. When possible, profile pictures have been altered by AI to keep their likeness but disrupt reverse image searches. We want the best for their personal lives so we make a best effort to promote their personal projects when possible.
