    Anime Expo's coming up!

    I'll be getting on the road to head down to Anaheim for my first anime convention in about seven hours, and I'm pretty excited. I was up until the wee hours of the night last night familiarizing myself with the list of events, workshops, screenings--and then waded through a few Anime Expo message boards to get the general pulse of the participants.

    I've figured out a bare-bones itinerary for myself: From 1 to 3 p.m., I'll attend a discussion held by a company in the process of building an anime-style mecha. I'll have to slip out early because from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m., I'll be participating in a voiceover actor panel, moderated by Taliesin Jaffe! After that I have nothing planned until 7 p.m., when I want to attend a discussion on Japanese-to-English adaptation, followed immediately by a screening of the documentary "No Need For Cosplay". Then I have about an hour and a half to myself before a screening of the first few dubbed episodes of "Ikki Tousen". I'll be leaving around midnight, unless I get a second wind and decide to get comfortable and sit through the late-night open-mic karaoke.

    For people who are coming from a distance, this weekend is a major undertaking--and one they've prepared for exhaustively and lovingly. I'm lucky in that I'm close enough to Anaheim to just zip over for a day. My one regret is that Crispin Freeman's workshop on mythology is on Sunday, but maybe I'll go back for it--especially if I can shanghai one more industry day-pass.

    I'll do some shopping (and perhaps some industry mingling) during my chunk o' free time after the VO panel, but for the most part, I'm just looking forward to taking in the atmosphere. My anime VO work has been in a vacuum, in a certain sense. I don't run in circles where I get a chance to bask in the enthuasium of the genre's fans. I'm one of those people who definitely reacts to a crowd's energy (whether good or bad), and there promises to be a bunch of good vibes coming from the Anaheim Convention Center tomorrow.
