Sentai Filmworks announcing the licensing of Legend of the Galactic Heroes is kindof a big deal.
That's the anime equivalent of Shenmue III.
The only major holdouts now are Macross DYRL and the sequel series. Goddamned Harmony Gold.

I wish I had gotten into the godeater premiere rather than the crunchyroll panel on the upside I asked one of the panel members and they told me crunchy is a profitable company and not merely eating venture money. HELL the lady Lauren I think her name was said she even lives in San Fran where the office is she perhaps she is making nice money.
Guess I'm surprised Crunchy is profitable is all.
Wasn't the GodEater premiere canceled? I was hoping for a GE2 announcement at that panel.
From what I read, they showed an incomplete version of the OP, said it was having production issues, and the first ep would premiere on the 12th (?).
No game announcements of any kind at that panel.Wasn't the GodEater premiere canceled? I was hoping for a GE2 announcement at that panel.

Last night was not my best moment, since I woke up with a raging hangover in the wrong hotel (Westin) and in a pool area that everyone else got kicked out by management. At least I managed to get another guy in a similar predicament get back to his own hotel. It was a shame I can't remember any details, since I know I had a great conversation with a cute 3D post conversion manager that was rather illuminating about how the industry works. If only I could remember it lol
I'll be honest, it was terrible. According to the people that were still around when I woke up, management was called in because people are assholes trying to take advantage of people. The only good thing that I did there was helping that other guy, I can't remember any actual details about I did that night. Mistakes were clearly made.Guess God Eater 2 seems more unlikely now, since I would think that be a really good time to reveal a oversea release.
Wow that not good.

Checking out. Roomed with gaf and it was fun. Over 1600 pictures to go through and bought over 700 of stuff. About 500 to 600 is for my friend lol
Another two hours to go on our way back to the East Bay. Currently stopped at Harris Ranch for a late night dinner and to hopefully wake myself up.
All I gotta say is, working tomorrow is going to be a bitchhhhhh! (Especially since I was basically working at the Degica booth, booth#53, all weekend!)
Well I came back home yesterday. Three days was a lot of excitement and fun heh. AMV competition and Little Witch Academia 2 were the big events for me, and were quite enjoyable. The nendoroid exhibit was quite a joy to go through, and had a great time at the Pokemon cosplay gathering. Got some nice goodies too, including the cool fight club mako nendoroid.
How much did that set you back? That one sold fast and everyone else overcharged. Only thing I saw higher was Saber 10th Anniversary Nendoroid that a friend bought for $120 as it was the last one he could find in the Exhibit Hall.
And damn if I wasn't bit by the nendoroid bug this year and got 7 of them. I'm fucking pissed that the last booth that had Houki today from Infinite Stratos not only upped the price from the day before but someone else beat me to it. Should have just bought it the day before.
I got Fight Club Mako on the 1st day for the GSC price. And sold out fast? She was around for like 2 full AX days and a half. Maybe you thinking of the regular Mako? Now that one along with the other KLK nendos went out pretty fast. Thank god they stocked up on Fight Club Mako well.
I now I have 4 nendos since Dec lol, 5th one via Snow Miku 2015 coming in a couple weeks. Probably won't check out another one for the rest of the year hopefully, unless Marth comes out so, which I doubt.XD
Atlus had like 5 segmented lines you had to go through to get into their tiny booth.
So crowded. Holy fuck. Last time I went to AX was maybe three years ago and I swear it had like half the number of attendees back then. Complete insanity.
That's because it did. It's grown by like 15,000 attendees every year. At least they were somewhat prepared this time around. AX2014 was horrendous and you could tell that they didn't expect such growth year over year for three straight years.
Oh man, while I sure it got better later on, I saw the line going all the way to the side of the exhibit hall at one point, much like what I saw of the line for GSC booth, and I was like NOPE.
LACC is getting really tight for AX. I fear for them next year (and myself if I end up going). The only alternative I see in South CA is San Diego :T

Not going to happen, Anime Expo will probably just keep the cap at 100,000, start raising badge prices, close chick Hearn Ln and offload more rooms and programming to the JW Marriott, Club Nokia, and Microsoft Theatre.
If they really want to go crazy, take over the staples center too.
Security checked my bag and saw my gatorade, he just told me "I'm suppose to take away your drink but I'll pretend I didn't see it" and lets me through. Good smiles company booth was insane, line went all the way to the back. Pretty packed for day 1, tomorrow and Saturday will be crowded for sure.
Saturday will be insane. I was surprised by how much more crowded it was this year in the exhibit hall for Thursday than it was last year. Hell I needed to get in line to get into the Kinokuniya booth and I've never had to do that in any previous year.
The bad today though was waiting 3+ hours in the ticket line for the FSN panel on Saturday. I'm just thankful they had canopy tents set up.
I really wish they would offload more rooms to JW, since the meeting rooms/ballrooms there are quite spacious enough to hold programming and panels there. Not sure they could pull off taking over LA Live like the X-Games did a few years ago, but part of me would like to see Marc Perez go HAM and try that, considering that con-goers constantly cluster around LA Live when looking for food or just space away from the con.
Also, Grand Central Market is a really great place for food though I missed out on Eggslut. On the other hand, the Breakfast of Champions milkshake I had from McConnell's was fantastic.
Moving more things to the surrounding area sounds like a great idea.
Hopefully this year with moving some of the video rooms over there was a good success cause the small panel rooms in LACC just aren't cutting it anymore.
It's pretty LOL that nothing good smile was selling really couldn't be gotten in Japan at a reasonable or cheaper price.
Eeeeeh? The prices of figmas and nendos at least seem pretty reasonable, the usual $40-$50, hell quite a few of them got it pretty harsh in the aftermarket, especially if they were exclusives, so this was a great time to get them if you were lucky to through (looking at you original Mako).XD
And nice selfie.![]()
That's one of the rare one which is actually some what limited to event print first
but it's 4500 JPY which is 36 USD in japan which you can order in like 3 weeks online. diong mass shipping from japan to US is kinda cheap too. not worth the wait in line for the agony. However I think that one wasn't sold out until like day 2 or day 3 anyways
I guessing you mean Fight Club Mako (was talking about the regular Mako that has shot up sky high in price) which is only going to be on the GSC store for preorder online, which then it going to be 6500 JPY including the shipping, being $53 then.
You said "reasonable or cheaper price," so yeah. But the new Mako was around for a couple days indeed, so there were times where the lines weren't that long when she was still around.
reasonable or cheaper
not
reasonable and cheaper
