About Justo Romanos
Justo is a writer with over 15 years of experience in the video game and anime press. A fan of Japanese video games and manga since a young age, he quickly became interested in journalism to share his ideas with others. Over the years, he has worked for specialized publications, including Hobby Consolas and SOSGamers. After more than a decade of traveling to Japan annually to cover the Tokyo Game Show and immerse himself in the anime culture of Akihabara, he decided to settle permanently in the country in 2019. Now at GameRant, Justo wants to reach a wider audience who enjoy anime and video games as much as he does.
Industry Focus
Justo's main area of expertise lies in Japanese games, anime, and Japanese culture. Over the years, he has worked to introduce previously unknown Japanese games to Western audiences, including titles like Tokimeki Memorial. His passion for anime, encompassing shonen, shojo, and all other genres, helps him convey what's trending in Japan. He has also interviewed leading figures in the industry, such as Yuji Naka, Nobuo Uematsu, Keiji Inafune, and Masayoshi Yokoyama, among others. He enjoys the opportunity to cover everything related to Japanese anime and video games directly from Japan, attending events and sharing his passion for Japanese culture with his readers.
