About Happano
Happano (Happa-no-Kofu/leaf miner) is a Japan-based web publisher, started as a non-profit activity in April 2000.
From the start of the project, we have published a lot of content under the domain name (happano.org), but the site of this domain name will be terminated in the middle of January 2026. After that, the website will appear at a new address, and it will become archives of the past works.
In return for the shift, we have established this new website, “New Happano,” and will continue our activities under a new domain name (happano.wixsite/nonprofit). We look forward to your continued support.
“New Happano” is the third site we have created since the start of the project. Below are the “About Happano” sections of the two previous sites we created, so please read them if you are interested.

Some works
It is difficult to sum up our activities and publications over the past 25 years in a few words, but we have consistently based our publishing on free access to the web, and have produced and sold paper books and Kindle books. These books are mainly based on the web works created there. We'll introduce you some of our Japanese/English (or Spanish) bilingual works below.
