There are only a handful of girls doing wotagei in the US, but HOLY CRAP, THE GIGA BALLS THESE GIRLS HAVE. I genuinely cannot believe it 🤯 Two girls from our wotagei community recently shared videos with me of themselves performing wotagei SOLO at their respective college talent shows. Two completely separate performances, at two different campuses, and each of them got up on stage and represented wotagei all by themselves. Holy... I actually got teary eyed watching these videos. Girls doing wotagei, putting themselves out there, and proudly representing something they love in front of an entire audience. The passion, the courage, the sheer bravery it takes to get up on that stage and do something that most people probably have never even seen before... I honestly can't even fathom it. I am SO incredibly proud of you two. And I... am... so... touched... Thank you for representing our community and reminding me why I love what we do so much 🥹

"Oooo~ but I don't want to be political" Life is political. Even in my weeb life, i feel the direct impact of the political climate every day, whether it's tariffs making my oshi's merch more 2x expensive or my oshi potentially being unable to come here because of the immigration process. I think it's a good reminder for those of us who prefer to “keep politics out of it” that, even if we don't actively engage in politics, politics can still affect the things we love and the communities we're part of.
