Anime Boston will a Foundations Of Anime section. It sounds like it will be fairly isolated within the con, which sucks, but it's a good first step toward bringing an education piece to anime cons.
We are getting the fuck out of dodge Sunday morning rather than going to the con. As with last year, the reason is 100% the bag checks and not wanting to deal with them.
It's weird that they're scheduling you so late, are you putting 18+ content in your Short Form Anime and Foreign Anime Openers that weren't in there before?
Yeah I got that impression from the website but that may still be cool. I'll have to look into the expense of a 3 day stay in Boston and the realities of transportation (wouldn't want to leave my car in the Riverside station lot for a weekend). My daughter will definitely dig the heck out of it even if I'm only mildly entertained.

I leave my car at Riverside for every PAX and AB I've ever gone to and never had a problem. It is the most cost effective way to park plus you don't have to drive in Boston proper.
It's not the expense I'm worried about but the security. It sounds like the Riverside lot is OK to leave a vehicle in for days at a time, though? So if that's the case we're golden. That's easy.
I'm impressed with the panel, "Gojira! A Conversation with the Cast of the original 1954 Classic Movie . And overall there are a lot of good things on the panel schedule this year. Looks like they've done a good job of attracting more academics. Plus of course some regular favorites. Rym and Apreche, I'm very much looking forward to your Utena panel.
The "live gaming" room isn't much, but good times have been had. I recall a spirited round of Linguini. Which makes me think maybe I should bring in Channel A at some point, if anybody would be up for that. (Though maybe they'll already have it.)

Assume no, every animeplace I go doesn't have a copy and when I bust it out it quickly becomes a focal point of the CAH crowd.

Perhaps I shall bring, then. Also maybe Superfights. Because apparently I want to play nothing but silly card games.

I mix it up between silly card games and serious games at conventions. Sadly I won't be there but hope you guys gt another round of languini in for me.
Printing errors exist. Scott is not actually on this panel. Also there were several panelists listed on Jed's postmodernism panel, which they were not on.

CT-Con is the only convention I've ever been to. We've been curious about Anime Boston for a while.
EDIT - I guess I could have just gone to the website, huh? Hmm. Maybe next year.
