Re: Star Blazers And The Start Of A Fannish Journey

Fantastic stuff! The wait helps in one way, in that you can tell the person who would have read the zine in 1999 and thought anime fandom from 1979 was distant enough from them that it was hard to visualize without help that 1999 is just as far away for modern fans, and they need just as much help a...

Re: Animezanai

Maybe this should go in the "Where's the meeting this week?" thread, but it's also interesting that the club was headquartered in Santa Ana, but the meetings were at the La Habra Public Library -- Santa Ana had a library, maybe they were kicked out? :D Or it had no space? Or was it a case ...

Re: Animezanai

The anime selection is intriguing too. The list adds to my suspicion that "What's Michael?" seems to have been semi-popular among anime fans in the Old School era (it was also available through Anime Sacramento around the same time, and the manga was for sale at Nikaku Animart), but you wo...

Re: Animezanai

Not sure if it's the same Brian Henderson who was involved with Animezanai, but an anime-fan Brian Henderson left a couple comments on a story about Carl Macek's death: Yeah, I remember hanging out with Carl back in his comic days, he had a TV and VCR up by the register and a bunch of us would go in...

Animezanai

An anime club run by Brian Henderson out of Santa Ana, CA. The main reason I figured it deserved its own thread is that a 1989 club video room schedule was preserved by the folks over at the ConFurence Archive (https://confurence.com/about/), a site mostly devoted to early furry fandom but that has ...

The BIX Animation Conference

I don't know much about BIX, apparently it was an online service created by BYTE magazine, and it had an anime section. One of the old moderators, Harry McCracken, had the foresight to preserve a copy in his personal files: https://harrymccracken.com/blog/the-bix-animation-conference-archive/ :) I t...
