Since several people here have requested info on the recent A-kon, I
captured the following message off RIME's ANIME echo.

Hmmm...there were about 700-800 people this year.  Ren & Stimpy folks,
heck, I didn't get to hear him.  I didn't get to hear anyone!  I was
tpp
(make that) TOO busy organizing the Kon to get to hear anyone!  We had
panels on translating, getting the rights, OVA vs. Series vs.
Theatrical
anime, Marketing Japanese animation for American markets, Getting into
the Biz of the animation market for those aspiring to be animators, we
had a couple computer animation discussions (Jeff Pidgeon from PIXAR
was
at A-Kon), a short workshop (VERY short, someone pulled a fire alarm
about 45 min. into the studio's 2 hr. workshop), played Anime Remote
Control, had a costume contest, a dance which went very well, some
water
gun problems which did NOT go very well (which was part of why Bruce
felt the Kon wasn't any good), multiple gaming which ran all night
(all
kinds, not just D&D - had Battletech, Teenagers from Outer Space,
Mekton, Traveler, etc., and most of the DMs tried  to tie in with an
animation show in their scenarios, which I hear went fairly well), a
lot
of people just meeting in the halls for good ol' BS sessions, the Kon
Suite was open 24 hr. and had Mystery Science Theatre 3000, Japanese
monster movies and fan parodies running during different days (sort of
an ALTERNATE alternate vid room), 3 regular video rooms, Streamline
gave
some discussions on various topics, there was a game development
panel,
and....oh heck, so much I can't remember it all.
 
You can order a leftover program book for $1.50 plus $50 handling, if
you want to see all the panels and who spoke and on what.  Pretty much
the panels went off as they should've.  The book has some humor that
some might find objectionable (especially if they can't laugh at
themselves and at fandom in general), so be warned. (there's like, no
blatant vulgarity, but there are some tongue in cheek commentary that
not everyone appreciates, so we have to let people know that before
they
order the book, cuz we don't want people angry).  Send to: Project:
A-Kon, P.O. Box 515141, Dallas, TX 75251-5141, if you want a copy.

Try ACTRESS IN THE MIRROR (exact title on request).  I'm quite sure the title
is in English.  The cover has a close-up photograph of Meiko (looking
bored... ^_^).  This 10-track CD has the OP and ED for the third KOR season
("Actress in the Mirror" and "Dancing in the Memories" respectively), and some
other stuff.  I'm not a fan of J-pop (the disc is a loan from a friend, I'm
having his CD collection for the summer), but I must say that the last song
in this CD is sort of an obsession to me.  Once I'm started, I can't get it
out of my head.(*)

(*)  Now look at what you've done!  Now I'll have to listen to Conty's
rendition of "In your eyes" for the next three days!!  AARGH!  :-)

P.S.  Whatever happened to not judging an album by its cover?  ^_^

To this list add "Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence" (I think he may also have

the right title).

I just finished watching all 3 Orguns a little while back.  The production
quality is very high.  My biggest pick about the first 2 parts is that there
was an overkill in the elaboration of the story.  I think most people would
have guess what's going to happen at the end, after watching the first 5 min.
Part 2 was a bit more interesting, but still a bit slow.  I like part 3 quite
a bit though.  Finally there's enough solid storyline to fill up an hour.  I
think it may have been better if the first 2 parts were compacted into 30
minute episodes instead.  Nontheless, this is still one of the top notch mecha
stuff I've seen in the past while, just make sure you watch part 3.

If that is true, I'm willing to.  Having a disagreement with a person is
one thing.  Not talking to them because you have a disagreement is childish
and downright stupid.  Make of that what you may.

Yes and no.  It is essentially the original Gundam series--meaning the
1979-80 TV series.  But it differs in some respects, apparently representing
the story the way Tomino really wanted to tell it originally, or so I
understand.

Since "otaku" is a very negative word, how about an English word to describe
those who have anime (and animation in general) as their hobby? Seeing the
creative talent that went into the AnimEigo slogan contest, this just might be
possible.

Also, on a related topic. I've thought about a stigma in the US society that
would be similar to the "otaku" word. It's definitely not a "trekkie" since
Star Trek fandom is by and large accepted and is almost mainstream. Probably
the closest thing that we have in the US is a stigma of a psychotic heavy
metal fan who listens to so called "satanist" groups. The equivalent of the
Miyazaki case would then be the lawsuit against Judas Priest about a year or
so ago.

Asked, got.

Leave me alone!  I had no idea how many people like freebies!  I need to
get some work done. (Instead of spend all day reading email.)  

If you e-mailed me and you haven't gotten a reply, that's because, you're
next in the queue.  (If the first person decides not to come over, or some-
thing like that.)
