I don’t know if this is the case for anyone else, but ever since Monday’s livestream the hours are just craaaaaaaaawling for me. I had to stop myself from combing through all the PacSet Youtube videos so as not to spoil the newness of the eventual trip. March 15 seems like such a long way away…

“Nerdy anime tattoos?” Do tell!

Oh man this looks incredible. Thanks for sharing!

Penguindrum was actually the first of Ikuhara’s series that I watched! I loved it, but being a westerner a lot of it was lost on me since it was so deeply rooted in events and cultural phenomenon very specific to Japan.

Space Dandy is the kind of show I wish would go on forever and ever – every episode some different auteur’s crazy ass vision. I love it.

Looking forward to meeting you as well :D

Rock on! We land at 12:10p. Yourselves?

Name: Jen

From: From LA, born in San Antonio, TX and raised in Austin, TX

What brings you to the tour?: The desire to take a trip with my brother and the desire to do a pop culture themed Japan tour.

Looking forward to: Ghibli Museum and Sega Joypolis. Damned if I’m not salivating at the possibility of visiting Swallowtail, though.

What’s on your desk?: Currently at work, so various papers, a cara cara navel, a pink lady, a… pear (I think it’s a green anjou), a painting of a Powerpuff version of myself punching Mojo Jojo, this kleenex box cover, an ancient Rio Carbon, and a 3D printed doge sitting under a glass case.

Recent Anime: I’ve started Lesbian Bear Storm and am one ep from finishing Space Dandy (I think I just don’t want it to end), but currently Revolutionary Girl Utena is commanding all my attention – I’m actually only just watching it for the first time!

Anything else?: My brother and I are flying separate from everyone, so we’ll meet you all at Narita!
