Anime Expo 2012, Day 3: It’s cosplay, deal with it!

Not a whole lot to report today. We didn’t really go to any panels. The day was spent mostly wandering around the (Xbox huge) dealer’s hall and artist’s alley, and attending Masquerade. So today’s post will consist of mostly miscallany.

I’m sure I’ve missed tons of industry announcements, even at the panels that we went […]


Anime Expo 2012, Day 2: Circling the drain

Note: the same grammar/typo/accuracy disclaimer from yesterday’s update also applies here. Didn’t take any notes, so my only reference is a log of my liveblog, which can be somewhat hard to follow at times (even for me, and I wrote the darn thing).

Attending an anime con usually involves a certain level of Con Dramaâ„¢. […]


Anime Expo 2012, Day 1: Let’s do the time warp again

Before we start, I’d like to apologize for any factual errors as well as grammatical errors/typos. It’s been a long day and I’m way too tired to do anything but a cursory look-over of this post.

Day 1 got off to a promising start – I actually managed to get out of bed before half […]


Got any questions for the Anime Expo 2012 Guests of Honor? Ask ’em!

We’re now only 1 week away from Anime Expo (AIEEEEEEE!!!). Yeah, I know, I haven’t even finished up with FanimeCon stuff yet (quickly looks away to avoid accusing glares from certain bloggers). (although I really, really hope to be finished by this weekend.) You can blame my work – in order for my overlords to […]


Mikunopolis CD, DVD and Blu-ray releases are coming soon; pre-order today!

Those of you that missed Mikunopolis, the awesome Vocaloid concert that took place at this year’s Anime Expo, listen up! The release dates for the concert videos have been set!

But first, the bad news. These are only going to be released in Japan. Why they chose to do this, I have no idea. If […]


Did you miss Mikunopolis? We’ve got you covered!

Are you sad that you missed out on what was quite possibly THE event of the new millennium? Don’t fret, we’ve got you covered. We’ve uploaded our video from the Mikunopolis concert to our YouTube channel. Go check ’em out today!

But first, the bad news. Unfortunately, the press weren’t exactly given the best seats […]

Anime Expo 2011 videos are hitting the Otaku no Podcast YouTube channel

First of all, yes, I am well aware that there are no Anime Expo Day 2-4 updates. I’m sorry, but I just wasn’t able to get them done. By the time we got back to our hotel room each night, it was too late and we were way too tired to write anything even remotely […]


Anime Expo 2011 Day 0 & 1 Report

Anime Expo 2011 Day 1 has drawn to a close. Actually we’ve been here since Thursday, aka Day 0. So at long last here is our writeup!

Day 0 was spent mostly getting here, followed by press interviews. We had the great honor of interviewing Fred Gallagher of MegaTokyo fame, as well as the multi-talented […]


Got questions for the AX Guests of Honor?

Yes, it’s that time again, time for another Anime Expo. This time we’re actually going to try and bring you some actual coverage. To that end we have set up our new liveblog, which, after hours of experimentation, I have determined to be much easier (and much less vomit-inducing) than live video streaming.

And this […]
