Any American Bankers Currently Working in Japan?

Background: E-Asian (ex Japan), US Uni educated, had internship with a boutique bank in New York, but was offered FT job in Tokyo. I'm 120% going to miss talking to my American friends/colleagues who are in IB, and thought maybe asking around wso might also bring opportunities of meeting new faces in Japan. Would also like to meet people in Nomura/Mizuho/etc's US offices if interested in Japan side of businesses
