Kawaii Kon

my suggestion for Kon I completely understand the problems in creating dates for the show such as guest availability, pricing for guest accommodation and the convention reservation, and attendee's availbility. I was wondering why not have Kawaii kon in late june or early july. By then kids and even...

Heyo, gonna field a couple of these questions (sorry if I don't touch on all of them ... trying to avoid the wall of text) and give a little perspective as to what went on this year as far as issues and why we did certain things. On Date selection, it was several reasons primarily based on what days...

This year, the butishake was kind of of disappointing. I hardly heard any of the suggestions, and the ones that were played, were altered. I saw a lot of people leaving and I can't say i disagreed with them. SO, I guess my suggestion is that maybe more of the requests should be played. :| Noted, ju...

Some progess has been made on the planning side. Unfortunatly my time has been extremely limited between the convention and family emergencies. At this point I hope to have something ready in the summer, if you want to know more details track me down at the con and I'll fill you in! It is still some...

Hey there I can some of this, hopefully someone more in the know of how we do the guest stuff now will chime in. But we have been talking about adding more artists in general as can be seen with with Mr. Amano. And other names have been mentioned and we are actively seeking talented artists that you...

Since I'm such a old time yokai themed junkie I'm re-watching Natsume Yojincho and then starting up Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan . Now don't get me wrong I LOVE all historical dramas and old yokai themes but they usually are based around young men. Does anyone know any yokai/historical dramas that ...

Been really digging a French show called Wakfu, based on the games. Its honestly the best animated show I've seen in years and oddly enough its done in Adobe Flash.... but I'll be damned if its still not the best animation Ive seen in a TV series. The designs are a cross between anime and a Belgian ...

Thanks for the feedback guys, I'll be messing around over the holidays and producing a pilot for internal feedback and depending on the outcome I may have something up after the first of the year.

Hey guys been toying with the idea of doing a pilot "Official" Podcast. Please answer the survey above and any ideas as to peoples preferences towards format would be great. Would you guys want it to be informational only; or would you like it to have some personality and flavor (reviews, ...

hehe.... I glad you got one. At some of the larger shows they don't even have lines, they have a lottery at the panels because there are so many people.

That is interesting as when I asked the question about not being let in later to "Unplugged" at "Behind the Curtain" panel|event, buma mentioned that there was miscommunication (about not letting people in when they should have beeen) that was later fixed. He even apologized abo...

Hey guys I can field some of these (I just got home to Atlanta, TJ and some of the other folks are either still on the island or in transit back home right now) and hopefully give you a idea of our thoughts process and what to expect for next year. Main Events Hall - Yup we know this is a issue one ...

We did have the movie, but it was on bluray and unfortunately we were down a bluray player and had to settle for what I had on DVD on hand. We had to do this on a few occations this week, I'm not happy about it but it was the best solution at the time.

We are talking amongst ourselves right now about what we can do and how best to do it. Personally I'm leaning toward a impromptu charity auction of some personal and rare items the benefit the Red Cross. Honestly if you feel the need to donate DO NOT WAIT for Kawaiikon, while I'm sure they will be a...

Peter was one of the nicest guys I have ever met, and probably the only man I have ever asked to have my picture taken with at a con.

Don't know who this is, but I still feel more saddened about his death than I did for Coleman's. :[ All I gots to say is King Koopa in the Super Mario Movie, and the preacher villain in Waterworld. But seriously I have enjoyed several of his appearances in movies and he has done some fantastic voic...

I was sitting down with the rest of the the staff for our "Dead Dog" Party as we had put the final details of Kawaii-Kon 2010 to bed, when Dave Williams came over to our table and quietly told of Mr. Macek's passing. Few have done more for anime in the US. For those unfamiliar it was Mr. M...

I know I'll miss Delta's 747 from ATL to HNL... they run the A330 now....sigh. I know in the case with us we are ordering smaller aircraft now not only because loads are getting smaller (less people flying er flight) but the secondary equipmetn is getting very expensive to get to remote locations. W...

Was holding my breath all day for you guys, luckily CNN online was streaming 2 local stations WHON and KITV so we kept checking in.

Yah, I'm waiting for it show up in Atlanta. I keep missing the chance to see the Antonov-225 that shows up from time to time up close.... its a beast too even bigger then the A380.
