    looking forward to seeing everyone again...new drawings!!! ^_^

Who attended?

    •  I was taken aback at the huge numbers (but in a good way!) and it was a little difficult to meet people at first. Also, I had no idea who the organisers were. That said, I had a good night and met some nice people! 
    •  Really great meetup with lots of Japanese people which was great. I think the hosts need to make themselves known and encourage people to mingle a bit. 
    •  I met some really nice people, but I didn't really like how the event was organized. It was difficult to talk to new people as there was no structure at all, and most people seemed to be speaking English. I think there should be some division between people who want to speak Japanese and those who want to speak English, and some activities or conversation starters to help people mix and strike up conversations. New people tend to be left in a corner unsure where to start. 
    •  Fantastic! 
    •  It was really good again, a lot people, but still hot. Nice seeing everyone again, looking forward to next month ^_^ 
    •  Great-nice meeting new people! 
    •  very good, I had lots of practice speaking Japanese, its also a good way of networking with people 
    •  It was a nice meet up, actually 3.5 out of 5. Luckily enough, I could talk to a couple of nice guys and was very impressed by those who weren't afraid of speaking Japanese at all even at beginner's level. I was really happy to speak with them in Japanese. However, I wouldn't say that the meet up was well organised. For the first 5 minites, I found no one to talk with and actually was about to leave. Anyway, thanks for the night. 
    •  well it was ok but it was a bit hard for people to get into the flow of conversation specially the first timers and there weren't any indication as to whether this was the place or not apart from that every thing went AOK! 
    •  Another great meetup with plenty of Japanese and Enlgish speakers. 
    •  I was a little nervous at first but once I'd found the group everyone was really friendly. It woulda been a bit nicer if the organiser identified themselves and introduced the meet up but despite this it was a very pleasant meeting.
