Re: When did American anime fandom and Japanese import game fandom come together?
In the mid 1990s I noticed a lot of the people showing up to our anime club meetings were setting up TVs and playing video games in the back of the room, and I suppose a lot of those were import Japanese games? I was not much of a video game person, and am still not much of a video game person, so I...

Re: Which came out in the US first, Animeigo's MADOX-01 or US Renditions' Gunbuster?
I'm seeing a few other rec.arts.anime posts that copy-paste US Renditions/Books Nippan press releases advertising a release date of Jan. 1 1990 for both Gunbuster and Dangaio. My suspicion is that January 1st was their advertised release date, but whether or not they met that release date is anybody...

Re: Which came out in the US first, Animeigo's MADOX-01 or US Renditions' Gunbuster?
I'd like to see more Gunbuster promo - a trade advertisement would be nice, for one thing - but at this point, if that Animag article is correct then Gunbuster was released before MADOX-01 and I will have to adjust years of incorrect thinking. the earliest I can see anyone discussing the Gunbuster t...

Re: Which came out in the US first, Animeigo's MADOX-01 or US Renditions' Gunbuster?
that's exactly the ad I was thinking about, but as it happens, the ad we ran in "Oxygen Destroyer" was for their Riding Bean release. The memory DOES cheat! I did, however, find the Summer 1990 issue of "Animation Velocity" which continued the letter-writing feud between Randall ...

There's an issue of my anime zine "Oxygen Destroyer" that features a print advertisement for MADOX-01's release, I'll dig it up when I get home and see what it says in terms of release dates.

Re: RIP Kevin Lillard
