To tell you the truth, I don't know the extent of Perot's involvement in
A-Kon. As the wealthiest man in Dallas, though, there's very little
going on there that he's not connected to in some way, and he's the kind
of businessman who's prone to micromanagement.

But ya`ll gotta get more hyped up than that! Let's have those dance

Are you serious, Carl?  Or is this some kind of timely joke?

Was Perot's company really involved in this year's A-Kon?  What about
the original one?

Noticing recently that a lot of translated manga is starting to lag
in release dates. Is there a reason for this? A lot of people are 
waiting for Nausicaa, Ghost in the Shell, Caravan Kidd, Macross 2, 
Silent Mobilus pt. 3, ect. ect. to come out but nothing is out that
I have seen. Maybe I am getting really bored, but I wish there would
be something new (BTW I have seen Atalia (sp) from Viz).
Has Crying Freeman ended from Viz? I have not got to my comic saver
in 2 months.
SIGH!

Yeah, why not? WonderCon in Oakland (Oaktown) does the same thing and it
is VERY successful! I rather do that! Or just do it on any day in the
summer time. The majority of anime fans ARE students and since they are
out, might as well. 
I guess it could be wishful thinking, ne?

Date: 23 Jul 92 08:18:07 GMT
Organization: Amiga Network Information Systems

I just received my copy of the Vampire Princess Miyu LD and I just skimmed
parts of it to see how good the transfer is.  The transfer came out very good.
The picture is very clear.  However, I have two questions.
1. (very minor point) Why didn't the disc have a Table of Contents? I like
knowing the number of chapters and how long the side is when the disc spins up.
 Is it much more expensive to add a TOC?

2. (major point) On my equipment at least, the subtitles came out with a slight
'ghost' to the right of the subtitle characters of almost a full character. 
Possibly the yellow of the subtitles transfered a little 'hot'?
Maybe someone else with the LD could check this for me.
(My setup: Pioneer Elite CLD-92 LD player feeding into JVC SVHS 6600 then via
RF to my old 19in Sony (the Sony doesn't have AV inputs so I have to do it this
way))  I'd like to know if it is my setup or the LD.  If it's my setup, well I
guess it may be time to get a new TV (This one's nine years old anyway)

Thanks in advance to whomever can check this out for me.

So? I don't like Matsumoto, but that doesn't mean I think he shouldn't

"The rest of us"... I'm sure there were quite a few people who enjoyed
him. I can't make judgement since I haven't seen any of his work. But
to tell Mike (or whoever runs a con) to not invite someone simply
because you think he's too intellectual or not to your taste is a bit
self-centered... (Mind you, fans sometimes are. :)

Hi, Dave!... holding matches under turtles gets kind of tiring, huh?

Just for the record, I hope the SPJA and you are able to come to whatever

I want to see a good bay area convention devoted to Japanese animation. 
For everybody's sake, I hope that's what we end up with.

Hope you and your cold, black, flinty heart have a nice day.

Hi!
Is there any Ranma manga collection, compilation (whatever) you can
get hold of? I'd really like to get a chance to compare the original
with the Viz version, but the only imported comics I can get ahold of
here is american comics (i.e. comics distributed through the major
american distributors - Yes, I'm paying a 30-40% price hike on the Viz
verson).

However, Creation cons are probably about the most notorious example one

     Well, I suppose so.  Considering the genre, I'm not terribly
surprised "for profit" anything has a certain degree of negativism
attached to it.  I still don't understand it, however.  But hey, I don't
really understand much of what motivates anime fans to do the things
they do or say the things they say. ;)

I agree with you 100,000% that anime needes to be dubbed (correctly) and
it needs to be in theatres (in greater distribution). The national tour
of Streamline's AKIRA gathered more attention from mainstream critics
than anything before, and was probably the biggest single factor drawing
new fans into anime since ROBOTECH.

Well--now that's odd--what person was involved with both?
