New York Anime Fest 2009
I will be attending New York Anime Fest for the first time as press! Super Amazing Number One will be updated September 25-27 as I sit and learn all about what's new and happening in the anime industry. I haven't decided exactly what days I'll be covering, but it will definitely include Saturday. On that day, I will be participating in the Blogger Roundtable panel on Saturday from 8 - 9 PM! This panel is happening thanks to the awesome blogging duet over at Reverse Thieves.
Yoshiyuki Tomino will be at the show! Like you, I wasn't too excited either until I was informed that he's the creator of Gundam. It will be interesting to hear what he has to say, since he just made some people angry saying that video games are evil.
Looks like AKB48 will be there. They appear to be a famous idol group based in Akihabara.
Well I'm most likely going to cover the stuff I think is awesome. When it comes to anime, that means giant robots. If I have any readers, and you'd like me to cover anything specifically, please let me know!
Okay, I've looked at the schedule, and here's my tentative coverage:
Friday
- FUNimation Industry Panel
- Final Fantasy/Square Enix
- Vertical
- Aniplex
- AMV Contest?
Saturday
- Del Ray Manga
- Bandai
- Manga Entertainment
- Anime News Network
- Robotech: Past, Present, and Future
- Blogger Roundtable!
