Forgot to link the the closing song of the last podcast. Gin Neko by Tsukiko Amano. Gomen.
Anyway, I don’t usually read Newtype magazine. It does this mock manga right-to-left page setup, despite being an American magazine. Doing this is not authentic! Right-to-left makes sense with localized manga, doing it with domestic periodical print just makes it annoying and hard to read.
Some friends told me I was in the February 2007 issue. Sure enough on page 94 (which was a pain in the ass to find) was an Anime USA round up and there I am in all my Amy glory. To the left of me is Lycoris as Tails. She is the wonderful craftswoman who made Amy for me. Click for full image
Who knows where I may pop up next!

Death note has indeed been licensed. You can read more here about the unique digital distribution the show will recieve before a DVD release.
Live-evil has also dropped it. Also since recording the podcast yesterday several other fansub groups have begun releasing death note eps. Interested to see the quality of them.

Setsucon is January 27th 2007 at the Days Inn at State College, PA. It’s a smaller con. Check it out!
Closing song this week is the main theme from Detective Conan (known as “Case Closed” here in the states, but I refuse to call it that.)Stay through to the end of podcast for a little treat.
