News From that Guy
Kitty-girls abounded. Steve Bennett seemed to like that.

As you've probably already guessed if you didn't go (and already know if
you did), Nekocon was a big success. Definitely fun for all ... and
Mich and I got to bounce on Gendo's bed. More about that later, but
only if you promise not to touch the, er, "orange juice" in the J-House
fridge.

We will have Utena parody-dubbing this week. Once again, it's scripting
work. If you were here last week and had fun scripting, then come
back. If you'd like to have a go, also come along. Bring any excess
Hallowe'en candy (or Coconut Cognacs would be fine, too), and we can
dump them into a communal candy bowl and get all hyped up for the
scriptwriting. Once again, it's in Jefferson Basement lounge after the
meeting. Bring ideas.

Hey there, kiddies! It's That Guy with a piece of fun news. Jess
Calvello (American voice of Fam, Mink, Cutey Honey, and a few others)
has just let me know that she's doing a voice in a Shockwave cartoon for
SciFi.com! It's called "Chi Chian" and it looks excellent! It's pretty
much a 13-episode goth-futuristic-action series starring Bai Ling. You
can check out the trailer and first episode at:

http://www.scifi.com/chichian/

In case you're wondering, you can hear Jess in the trailer as Dr.
Yoshimoto (a pink metallic floating teddy bear), her one line being "Oh
dear, I think Chi-Chian's in trouble!" ... she doesn't come into the
actual series 'til episode 4, but she also ends up playing Sayoko-7 and
a Siamese robot (no, she didn't explain).

Anyway, let me know what you lot think ... and don't forget to check out
"Nosferatu" at http://www.museoffire.com/Nosferatu (yeah, yeah,
shameless plug ... but I'm proud of playing both a vampire and a mad
scientest in the same scene)!

And now, to class. "To class!" *clink of glasses* Ehe ...

Presidential Address
Hello again, clubmembers.  As the memories of Neko-con fade from my mind, I feel compelled to say that it was a lot of fun, and I really enjoyed meeting my friend Allen, whom I hadn't seen since we were in Japan together. 

I will be in club tomorrow (hopefully) around 6:30-6:45 to discuss how we're going to get more manga read.  Hopefully, some brave soul will come forth at that point (don't e-mail me, just come), and say that he or she will take the manga and several hundred blank transparencies that I will give him or her, and then within the week put the manga onto the transparencies.  The reward?  Ummm...I will reimburse copying expenses, if any.  Other than that, I'll see what I can do.  Someone must do this for there to be more manga readings.

If time permits before club, I finally got some more Gasaraki -- the Tactical Game at the con, so we can play it.  Some knowledge of Japanese is required, but significantly less if I'm around.  This is sooo much easier than the Evangelion card game.  Trust me.

New anime recommendations -- I saw Jubei-chan at the convention and was laughing hysterically. If no one else gets copies of this I will be forced to buy it myself.

Tina's Con Corner

Hey folks!  Great news from the money keeper of the club.  The hotel fee for the club is going to be roughly around $20 so since everyone already paid their hotel fees, you don't need to give us any more extra money!  Yeah!  The only thing you need to do is just make sure you pay back anyone you borrowed money from like Steve Bennet.  But if you slept with him, you don't owe him anything.  
But wow, Nekocon.  Fun :)  There were many pictures taken of me as Achika and Miyu.  You can find some of them on www.fansview.com. I got myself a Vampire Princess Miyu art book and also a DVD of a Chinese movie.  I'm happy ^_^  This con, I only had one guy really come close to hitting on me, most guys were deterred by Mike, especially when he turned into Proteus.  I love it when he melts sketchy fan boys for me *sigh* 
The best part of the Con for me was when Mike came back to the hotel room with the hearts of all the men that tried to hit on me . . . and when we played Dance, Dance Revolution very unsuccessfully.  We also played some Maraca game where we had to make a monkey dance.  I also bit Mike many, many times as Miyu.  This may explain why he's pale.  ^_^


Mike's Con Report (of which a fourth is overt lies)
Hey everyone!  We all made it out of Nekocon just fine.  The dominant opinion is that, though not as good as last years' Nekocon, Nekocon 3 wasn't too bad all things considered.  After a few logistical problems in getting things set up, we all made it there without any nasty dumpster run-ins or lost members.  The con was a bit fragmented, taking place in two buildings.  The dealers' room wasn't bad.  I managed to come away with an Escaflowne movie soundtrack (which is now on the neighborhood network), and an X manga artbook... not the 60+ dollar leather-bound Japanese edition, but the 30+ dollar Taiwanese edition.  Also, I almost bought the shinken that came at a discount with the X artbook, but decided I didn't want Tina or her mom to explode.  But  I appreciated the con this year.  No one asked me to pick up anything from the now-infamous Box of Smiling Kenshin.  I did, however, spot a few nameless club-members at the Table of Happy Gundam, (if you've gotta ask, don't).  Only at an anime con can you find a sign that says, "free T-shirt with purchases over $100."

I saw nothing in the video rooms, though a few people were thrilled and unsettled by the Berserk marathon running from midnight (episodes 1-25).  The highlights of the con for me included the video contest.  A lot of fun stuff, like the 10-second "Harvey the Wonder Hamster" video (just random enough to be cute) and an excellent Star Wars Episode I parody.  Rob's videos also received a warm reception.  I thought the Gai video was oddly poignant in the context of an anime con.  The cosplay also went really well.  Although we didn't win anything, we all had a lot of fun and saw some great stuff.  Included in the winners: a giant Godzilla costume and a life-size film-quality Guyver suit with lots of bells and whistles.  We're talking professional-grade stuff here.  Finally, the dance Saturday night was a lot of fun--dancing to the Kodomo no Omocha song could brighten anyone's day.  All of the kendo-ka in the anime club bought bokuto (wooden practice swords for forms), so we were finally able to enact our fantasy of massacring all of the con-goers with kendo equipment they don't know how to use.  Yes, did the blood of the otaku flow on that day...  But anyway, it was all well and good.  As long as the Egg of the Otaking remains in its proper place.  See you all at the meeting!
