I'm just wondering, did any of you who attended the convention get to see Yoko Ishida AND Get David Kaye's autograph?!?!?!? THEY SCHEDULED THEM FOR THE SAME TIME!

Because obviously some of us have the capability of being in two places at once.

Great con, though.

Yeah, I had a blast. It was my first AnimeBoston visit and I plan on going back every year now. It was sensory overload as the venue was large and spread out. The AMV screening was a lot of fun.

I bought Yoko's "Sweets" and "All of Me" CDs. I had her sign Sweets. Seeing her there was a surprise to me especially since I didn't know she was going to be there until I saw the program. I was in awe since I love her Ai Yori Aoshi intro song, Eternal Flower. I had just gotten that series too and was watching the extras with her video with the song. I was blown away when she opened her performance up with it. She's got such a great voice. That was definitely a cool moment.

It was quite great. I still can't believe the mad rush at my CD at the Iron Editor.

The concert was great (I had the bright idea that i could use my chidori LED and my water bottle to make a kick-ass glowstick substitute)

Cosplay chess was so much fun! I got hugged to death. What a great way for Kakashi to die.

I felt so bad for you! I was thinking "goddamn, he spent how many hours practicing his seals and he got killed in the 4th move?" However, your Ed kill was impressive. I further apologize for not being around to take your photo, as if I was still there I would have had to pay for an additional night of valet parking...

I saw you at the Iron Editor challenge but never got a chance to say what's up. I couldn't stick around long enough for you guys to finish though. Hope the machines didn't crash more than a dozen times. I think it was up to 5 crashes before I had to take off (buddy dragged me to another video screening).

Cool. I'll be at AnimeNext too. Hope it's going to be as good!
