Anime Expo
« on: June 29, 2004, 03:14:21 AM »
It's this weekend at the Anaheim Convention Center, same place Worldcon will be in 2 years. I'll be working at least one of the days in some capacity for the TOKYOPOP presence. Anyone else going?
All Saiyuki fans should check out Dazzle! Emotionally wrenching action-adventure and quirky humor! (At least read chapter 6 and tell me if you're not hooked.) Volume 10 out now!

Heh.  Going to author cons breaks my budget as it is.  Maybe in future years.

I'll go if someone pays for me and I'm allowed to harass and torment all the cosplayers and "Otakus" there.  Entropy can come with me, we'd dubble team everyone.
Screw it, I'm buying crayons and paper. I can imagineer my own adventures! Wheeee!

I'd complain that you're leaving me out, but as a member of the Brisbane Anime Society, I already have enough freaks to pay out.

If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

that's ok, because his buddy right behind him is making out with a pillow

And not only are they pillows, but they're pillows with DRAWINGS of FICTIONAL characters.

What's the ratio of men to women in Japan anyway?

I've seen pictures of an Asuka pillow for Evangelion (as well as bedsheets that are Asuka on one side and Rei on the other.)

I want one.
