Yup, that would be my - Tsukikage no Knight (Moonlight Knight in English) because I love looking at the moon at night and knighthood has always caught my imagination since my childhood. Oh, I’ve always wanted to wear a shining armor and sweep all the girls of their feet. :-)

New York City If I were to be moved to a US city under the Witness protection program, I would be very happy to relocate to New York City. It’s a very big city and it is less likely that those who would want me dead would find me in a city like that. Besides, if you I were running away from bad elements, why would I go to a place where they would expect me to go, like a suburban community?

This is exactly what people might see on USA Network’s new original series In Plain Sight which is about an action-packed suspense series which will premier on June 1st at 10pm, Sunday on the above-mentioned network. The series is about Witness Protection and viewers can only expect but great actio, suspense and drama in this series. If you are someone who loves shows in this genre, then don’t miss the first episode and the succeeding ones. You’ll love it.
