The Japanese Vlogging Community on Youtube lost one its long time J-Vloggers, Rodger Swan. Swan recently passed away suddenly from acute pancreatitis. He put out a lot of videos of his experiences in Japan, first as Tokyo Swan then later as Iwate Swan when he accepted a job offer from JET to teach in Iwate Prefecture.

His most popular series was his Japanese Horror movie reviews where he looked at the good, the bad, and the gory of Japanese horror cinema. If you like Japanese horror or horror movies in general you should check out his work. This is the first video of his playlist where he reviewed the Ring series. He has a whopping 50 reviews!
