Research assistance in Tokyo next week?

[Jessica Langer]

Dear all,

I am sorry to bother all of you with this question, but I am in a bit of a
bind, as my original research assistant has just told me that she has
another pressing commitment.

I will be in Tokyo next week, in part to arrange a viewing at the NFC of
KAIDENPA SENRITSU, the only extant Japanese pre-war science fiction film
(and then only in fragmentary form), on which I did some research in 2007.
However, I am embarrassed to admit that at this point my Japanese language
skills are no longer up to snuff and I will need a native/near-native
speaker to assist me in notetaking. It's only a few hours' work and of
course it would be paid.

Does anyone based in Tokyo have a graduate student or anyone who might be
interested in doing this?

Many thanks, and all the best,
Jessica
