Any art, unless stated otherwise, is attributed to rurutea, and I only provide the Japanese to English translations. Because I love Koupen-chan and the joy they bring to people, I wish to spread this joy to English readers. This blog will be about my progress in learning Japanese, my attempts at translations, the information I find along the way, and the resources I find useful. Disclaimer: I have no formal association with rurutea. All translations are done under my own accord, for enjoyment, and for spreading this enjoyment to others. I do not monetize any translations of rurutea’s content. I do not represent the opinions of anyone but myself. https://houjicha-tl.com/contact daily 0.75 2020-08-14 https://houjicha-tl.com/resources daily 0.75 2024-01-23 https://houjicha-tl.com/home daily 1.0 2024-07-18 https://houjicha-tl.com/404-page daily 0.75 2020-08-16
