Re: What are you Watching?
Affair *of* Nolandia, excuse me- :) (There is also a prolonged scene where they decide after being trapped in a repeating nightmare, that the best way to draw the target out of the jungle is with handmade stuffed animals.) Not sure if this is about outside circumstances back when OVAs were new, or t...

Re: What are you Watching?
For me, the latest is Dirty Pair: Affair at Nolandia. :D This really seems like an anime that would do well with a re-make, as the original is bad, but bad in a way that could have retro-appeal if it wasn't so incoherent. Like the gratuitous tentacle scenes, which later on sort of suggest they are P...

Re: When did American anime fandom and Japanese import game fandom come together?
I liked a few NES and SNES games, and the folks who said they had games from Japan that hadn't come out here did seem kind of cool, but I was never involved in the import scene myself :) Same goes for fighting games and rhythm games, as I could never do the complex moves. :lol: My interest in anime ...

When did American anime fandom and Japanese import game fandom come together?
Nowadays I think the popular perception is that American anime fans who were not originally gamers are in the minority -- when I first became involved as an anime-fandom-middle-schooler, the import gamers were a subset of anime fans, not everybody but noticeable. So when did the connection start? Di...

Re: RIP Kevin Lillard
What will happen to his photos and negatives, I wonder? It would be terrible if they weren't preserved somehow.

Re: The "Check this item out on eBay" Thread
I have no idea where it's coming from - tapes or t-shirts. Are folks actually completing a sale at these prices? It's one thing to drop an ad for $700 of tapes or a thousand dollar t-shirt and just have that ad languish as we all have a laugh at it. But is someone actually buying these things at th...

Con t-shirt archive? (Also, when did con t-shirts become a thing?)
A lot of cons do/did a new shirt every year, but pictures of old con shirts only seem to show up online when someone loses a bunch of weight or gains a bunch of weight and tries to sell their old shirt on EBay. :lol: Is there anywhere trying to archive/categorize old con shirts (front/back/tag photo...
