Re: Funimation Virtual Convention July 3-4
Thanks for the heads up!
It's weird, I would've spent July 4 at Anime Expo but now that I can't go I'm not sure I'd spend that day just streaming panels from my home. Maybe I'll do it with my daughter. |
Re: Funimation Virtual Convention July 3-4
That’s interesting. It’s been few years since I’ve been to an anime con, and my favorite part was going to the panels, but it was always a PITA to line up, have it fill up, etc,

Will you do a virtual event instead? Funny you should ask because that’s our exact plan! We will be taking Dragon Con 2020 virtual this Labor Day weekend and give our fans the FREE opportunity to enjoy new content, as well as reminisce while catching up on some of the old favorites. We fully acknowledge that a virtual event won’t come close to offering the magic that an in person Dragon Con brings, but it is our hope that it will allow our community to take some time to step off the planet that is currently experiencing an unprecedented global pandemic for four or five days to be among people who get you. People who are just like you. People who truly accept you. And hey, if you wanna cosplay in front of your computer…that’s cool, we will be doing the same (and running some awesome contests for you to show off your work!) We will of course be hosting some events for fans to showcase their amazing creativity and interact in some exciting ways. Please stay tuned for details as they unfold in the upcoming weeks. |

Re: Virtual Anime Conventions
Paru Itagaki will be joining OTAQUEST CONNECT on August 15th and 16th for a special panel session! More info here https://bit.ly/2Z5MZea #otaquest #otaquestconnect ABOUT OTAQUEST as a project was born out of anime conventions in America. After iconic producer ☆Taku Takahashi (m-flo / block.fm) was invited to perform at the yearly SYNERGY party at Anime Central by event organizer Eddie Lehecka (Attack The Music, bemanistyle), the two teamed up to create something with the concept of connecting different aspects of the Japanese pop-culture world and its iconic creators more directly with fans in the United States. The larger part of this mission is fulfilled by our website, which brings regular news across all aspects of Japanese popular-culture, but also has a monthly feature topic in which we interview creative teams & influential people across a variety of industries. But our presence on the internet is only one aspect of how we build this connection, with live events making up the other side of how we approach our mission. Since our founding in 2017, OTAQUEST has also participated with conventions all over the United States, bringing musicians, artists, and other elements of Japanese pop-culture with them. From booth appearances in exhibit halls, to OTAQUEST LIVE, and Anime Central's SYNERGY event, we have been building up the ways in which we can bridge the gap between creators in Japan & fans in the US. OTAQUEST CONNECT is the next step in our continued use of live programming to compliment our daily news & editorial content. We're teaming up with our good friends at Anime Central to bring you a lineup chock full of amazing members of the anime, gaming, and music industries in Japan to create a weekend packed full of streaming content for fans worldwide to enjoy from the comfort of their own home. Making use of Twitch & Discord to interact as a global community, we can't wait to connect with you all over the weekend of August 15 & 16th, directly from our base of operations in Tokyo, Japan. We hope you'll join us, and be sure to keep an eye out for more updates on the different kinds of programming we'll be hosting that weekend! |

While we’d rather be giving you an update on badges going on sale, it likely comes as no surprise that #NYCC 2020’s physical event will not be able to run as intended. This is one of the hardest announcements we've had to make, & we miss you all so much: http://NYCC20.com/Letter But we still can’t wait to hang out with you online for New York Comic Con’s Metaverse, Oct 8-11.
