Re: Far East of Eden Mystery Continues...read Japanese?

Has anyone found anything out about Professor Chada and
what his connection is to the Tengai Makyou series?

I thought this was relatively common knowledge by now.

The Tengai Makyou games is Hudson Soft's way of poking fun at the 
USA's=20=

popular conception of the Orient. It is about a fictional Japan, 
where=20=

everything is distinctly Asian but at the same time, absolutely not=20
Japanese. It's Japanese the way Japan might be described by a five 
year=20=

old--or any other person who does not have a real grasp of the 
Japanese=20=

culture.

The story of the Tengai Makyou games is a "historical fiction" of 
sorts=20=

which was written by Professor Paul Chada, a "Japanest history 
expert"=20=

from Alaska. But of course he knows nothing about Japan, so the story 
is=20=

all kooky and crazy.

Tengai Makyou IV takes the story in reverse and satirises the Asian=20
perception of the Americas, where everything is yet again as crazy as 
a=20=

lark.

Professor Paul Chada is of course purely fictional himself.
