Well, it's been an anime-filled Spring here at
fps. In addition to regular reporting, May was all about the Tokyo International Anime Fair
photo gallery, and the month-long anime prize pack contest (congratulations to the
winners); and June will include the launch of our
bigger, better issues of
Frames Per Second magazine, with this issue focusing primarily on anime.
We'll also be attending
Otakuthon, a fan-run convention in the city this weekend. Emru and René Walling will be participating in several panels including
Early Days of Anime Fandom and
Must See Anime. I'll be there from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday to answer questions about
fps projects. We're also sponsoring two free screenings, one of
Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children (co-sponsored with Otakuthon) which is reviewed in issue 8, and
Howl's Moving Castle, a favourite of many here at
fps.
