About EPJ

Japanese films and animation are widely favored in Asia, Europe, and the United States, and are now creating business opportunities in Hollywood. Japanese digital games are ubiquitous. Japanese popular music is gradually finding acceptance by American audiences.

In response to these developments, the Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO) has established the Entertainment Platform of Japan (EPJ) to promote the export of Japanese content including motion picture, anime, music, and video games. This newsletter is distributed by the EPJ program to share with you the latest trends related to Japanese entertainment with an emphasis on Films and Music in this 2nd issue.

The EPJ (Entertainment Platform of JAPAN) is an exciting initiative aimed at fostering ties between the entertainment industries of Japan and the U.S.
