I’m chatting with some people at Anime USA about potentially doing a Panel this year. How would you, my dear listeners, feel about such a prospect? I could probably do something exciting, maybe about the podcasting process, but I think Tee Morris may already have that well covered. Or it could be a showcase of the weird, Japanese and macabre. (Ok, maybe not so much that last one.)
I think I willl ask this question in greater detail in the next coming podcast. Stay tuned. Oh and on an unrelated note: I’ve been using this great little wordpress plug in called “photo dropper” which searches creative commons licensed images and makes me seem more interesting than I am!

Ladies and Gentlemen, Anime USA is nigh.
Seeing as I actually have a hotel room this year, I’ll be able to connect to the internet on a somewhat regular basis. What does this mean you ask? (What? You didn’t ask?) It means I’ll be posting through until Sunday!
Stay tuned, I have treats in store, and you wont want to miss it. You may cringe at times, you might even want to look away, but trust me. It’s worth it! Think of my live blogging attempts as a form of death torture.
Like Death By Snu Snu!!
Oh yeah, it going to be one of those weekends! -Ataru
Get Pumped. Get ready. Anime USA is upon us. You can get yourself in the right mindset by listening to last years Anime USA Podcast which features such choice selections as “Is She Legal” and death being thrust upon me from a falling chandelier.
Come and find me, I will be recording the podcast on and off all weekend and will likely see me at the 21 and Over Cosplay Gathering
Oh and, be on the look out for me in my Amy Rose cosplay!
