Nice to meet you! I'm Danny (or Chariot), 23 years old, they/them pronouns. I'm a grad student and I like to do song translations.

Bio
I'm a 2nd year physics graduate student. I self-study Japanese (among other languages) on-and-off for 7 years now. I have a song translation blog and I've also scanlated manga before. Besides translating, my other hobbies are dancing, writing, piano, guitar, and cosplay.

About a year before µ's ended, I watched the Love Live anime because my friends were into it. I was a pretty casual fan until I learned about µ's ending. In the summer I happened across an AMV set to Bokutachi wa Hitotsu no Hikari that made me cry a lot, and from then on I was a fervent fan. I started playing SIF that summer too.

Love Live has been a wonderful part of my life. µ's was one of the reasons I joined the dance team of the Japanese club at my school, and eventually came to lead it. Since then on I felt like I really relate to Honoka, which is why she's my favorite. I've made good friends IRL and online.

I was fortunate enough to be able to see Aqours' overseas live in LA at Anime Expo 2018 and participate in the AqouRainbow penlight project (I was in Hanamaru's row). In November 2019, I went to Anime ANYC to see Guilty Kiss in the Lantis Matsuri concert, and I won a meet-and-greet  with them too. These two are my most memorable experiences so far.

Besides Love Live, I also like Bang Dream!, Little Witch Academia, Symphogear, Fire Emblem, and other things.
