Hola to you all from Spain!

I have read that the Japanese Arthur Ransome Fan Club was the first fan club to be formed, and I cannot help wondering "Why?". Does anyone know why the Japanese club was formed earlier than in other countries?

I wonder if there was a "super fan" in Japan in the 1980s, and their energy brought the club into existence (Tamami Nakayama, maybe?). Or perhaps there is a completely different explanation. If you have any information I would be very glad to hear it!

Best regards,

Clara.
