While he’s ready to clone himself for next year to be everywhere at once, our Japanese resident and Associate Writer, Paul Richardson worked tirelessly to provide photos and results from all 7th KAC tournaments (and then some). This dude does not get nearly the amount of praise he deserves, even if it’s by myself, but he knows we love him and what he does to provide the English rhythm game community everything we need to know is hands down what the community needs.
